Capitalist Media Monopolies Are the Enemy of Democracy
Manage episode 299216279 series 2829448
We continue a series of discussions about the basics of Marxism, focusing today on the corporate-owned media. The majority of the media in the United States is owned by five giant corporations -- What does this tell us about the so-called “free press”?
Richard Wolff is the co-founder of the organization Democracy at Work and the author of many books, the latest being “The Sickness is the System: When Capitalism Fails to Save Us from Pandemics or Itself”. You can check out his work at rdwolff.com.
