Before the rise of the internet, Television and newspapers were the most influential media. TV has many channels and there's are lot of nation wide newspapers, but many reflected a similar view.
In the age of those media dominance, those who control the media also controlled the world.
Now in the age of the internet we can see many different views inside the same screen from different sites.
It is true that those who control the media also ruled the world.
Now in the age of the internet, it plays a far more greater role than just a TV or a newspaper. It is a conglomerate of TV, newspaper, or magazines combined. We can choose the kind of media we get information from, so we are not likely to have the similar views that we used to have in the age of TV, and newspapers dominance. It gets harder for our mind to be controlled.
