| Introduction | Contact me at: rdinvst@yahoo.com These articles are written in an attempt to understand how media companies are competing for control of the internet. It is a running dialogue that is intended to reconstruct the pieces of a very complicated puzzle. Each entry includes observations based on research carried out over several years. Some of the research is historical, some of it is from personal experience working in the field, and some is from other authorative sources. My hope is that the information I've accumulated illustrates how media have developed to this stage in the United States. Comments, corrections, other information, and supporting links to other sources are encouraged.
