Show notes (follow me on Twitter at @jeremylittau):
- It hasn't been updated since 2004, but Ben Bagdikian has been on the case on media conglomeration for decades. His book The New Media Monopoly goes deep on how these companies are structured and formed. (note: I have no financial stake in Amazon links and am linking to it mostly so you have the book information, including the ISBN).
- The CBS and Viacom relationship is like a soap opera, so on-again-off-again. Here's a good explainer on the proposed merger.
- How complicated does this get? For all the fanfare about Spider-Man leaving the MCU this month, there were media economics reasons for Sony to pull the franchise back.
