Description for Cross-Media Ownership & Democratic Practice in Canada
Paperback. Groundbreaking study of cross-media ownership allays concerns of content convergence monopolization among newspapers and television. Num Pages: 160 pages, black & white tables, figures. BIC Classification: 1KBC; JFD. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 152 x 226 x 11. Weight in Grams: 246.

Surprisingly, the study lays to rest fears over content convergence of newspaper and television network ownership by Canadian media giants Canwest Global, CTVglobemedia, and Quebecor.

This leads the authors to examine why, and to assess problems that mass media in Canada will likely face in the coming years, particularly as newsrooms strive to adapt to new media and the online environment. ...

Reviews for Cross-Media Ownership & Democratic Practice in Canada
[W]hat the authors discovered was rather surprising and intriguing: contrary to popular belief, content-sharing in the Canadian media isn't as widespread as previously thought....
