The same Tech Oligarchs building massive data centers, pushing AI into every corner of our lives, and selling surveillance tools to federal agencies are also buying news outlets, funding newsrooms, and controlling the platforms where most people get their information. They don’t just own the media. They control what counts as news, whose stories get told, and what futures seem possible.
MediaJustice is excited to launch Media Capture: Who Controls the Story Controls the Future, our NEW REPORT that maps how Tech Oligarchs have captured the media system through ownership, financial influence and platform control. This report is for organizers, activists, and communities of color who are fighting Big Tech across many fronts, from data centers, surveillance, AI and labor.
As Larry Ellison moves to expand his media empire through outbidding Netflix for Warner Bros, it’s never been more crucial to understand how capturing this narrative infrastructure goes hand-in-hand with expanding data center infrastructure to consolidate the Tech Oligarchy’s power.
P.S.: Join us NEXT THURSDAY, March 12th at 6:00 PM ET | 3:00 PM PT to dive into our report findings, connect your fight to the broader media ecosystem, and break down why it matters for our communities.
