I think it’s easy to assume that because “old guard” is an easy villain (not sure where monopolies comes from though - media remains more competitive than something like tech for example). Similarly easy to blame government intervention as a failure when the problem continues. But to play devil’s advocate. How do you know that without government intervention even the big players would have failed even worse and the smaller players died even more quickly? I respect Michael Geist and he’s more knowledgeable in this space than I am, so if this is his position I’m more likely to believe it, but it’s really hard to say anything so definitively without a control to evaluate against.
