    No.

    Corporations exist to make money.

    Media exists to entertain and inform.

    Most media is owned by corporations.

    Don’t forget, corporations are people now!

      That’s the exact problem. Corporations aren’t people. They might be run by people, but they are a concept of their own, that create a very twister social dynamic where the people that run them have certain feeling of obligation but also a sense of irresponsibility. Because the “corporation”, or the embodiment of the abstract end of maximizing profit, takes responsibility for the employees’. Mostly culturally, but even in many ways legally too.
