> That's not true at all. Someone can simply buy all the media, and the free market will not correct that as long as that person has the wealth to persist.
Do you have an example of that happened in real life? Not just a hypothesis. When was a person being wealthy enough to buy all the media?
Not the person you’re replying to, but there used to be regulations limiting ownership of radio & TV stations in the US. When these regulations were lifted in the 1990s, it resulted in one company (Clear Channel) going on just such a buying spree.
