> The claim was that over 90% of news and entertainment media in the US (clearly not including games and social media, if you read the original link) is ultimately owned by 6 companies. Can you prove otherwise with actual numbers or sources?

We agree in most things, you are just completely wrong with this claim that 90% of news and entertainment media in the US is owned by 6 companies. And no, the fact that many of them share some of the same investors doesn't make you right.
- mandmandam 2y ago... How do you quote my words and still not understand them? I don't know how I could possibly be more clear. Listing games companies and Substack, with no numbers or market share or source, does not disprove the quoted claim. I'm out, best of luck anyway.
- meiraleal 2y agoDon't get mad just because I'm calling you out on your bullshit. You can't just fake statistics to prove a point even if I agree with it. Try better next time.
