These 6 Corporations Control 90% Of The Media In The United States of America and therefore the news that are fed to the world Comments from Counterbalancetoday Next time you watch anything in the TV or read anything from virtually any magazine or news paper bare in mind that it is owned by only 6 companies and the news are highly fileted and not just that. Sometimes the news or actually many times reports are written by the politicians, lobbyists or any one with power related to a corporation that feeds something to their agenda, if you look carefully the source of the information is almost never found or is very vague. It is a good habit to always check the source before buying into anything including my posts, for the interviewed always check their credentials who they work for , where did they worked, etc..
