Ownership has always been assumed, in both scholarship and public discussion, to be a key factor affecting the production of news. But it's also something extremely hard to study systematically. How Media Ownership Matters is the finest work to date on this subject, rigorous and complex at the same time engaging and accessible. It's a wonderful contribution to the political economy of news.
