NEOLIBERAL PRESS IN MEXICO, GLOBALIZATION PRESS IN US. BIG MEDIA, CORPORATE MEDIA - IT DETERMINES THE NEWS


"Mexico is in the middle of a profound crisis, in which the entire ruling class has stopped representing society, and this vacuum is being filled, quite clumsily, by the massive media conglomerates who aren’t even prepared for the task.

“Before, the ruling class governed the media, then later in the period of crisis, it governed with the media, and now it is governed by them. In other words, no mainstream media outlet is going to permit that the ruling class step out of line,” said Subcomandante Marcos in an extensive interview with La Jornada, the first he has given in five years."

Whether Mexico or US. The big media serves the ones who own them - the big corporations
