If you're anti-free market (or a Democrat, but this might be redundant) you
start off with "women and minorities hardest hurt," but that might be

Then, you find greenroots (you pay them) groups that claim to be women or
minorities to parrot your claims. Some of these 'groups' might have more
than one member.
I seem to remember that some of these types of groups claimed that women and
minorities would be shut out of the 500-channel universe.

Excellent points John!
Remember that demographics drive the content world. Weomen and
minorities are valuable demographics that ARE being served by the
conglomerates. But on their terms. THEY develop the networks - e.g.
Oxygen, SPIKE TV etc.
Minority ownership is another matter...
