Geographical Market Segmentation[edit]

I have witnessed in the US instances where European music groups do not appear in search results performed in the US versus those performed in Europe, particularly songs that are covers of prominent US groups. This example is even more obvious on YouTube. Same is extended to sheet music not being allowed to be purchased in certain geographical regions popularly referred to as The Free World.

Likewise, it is nearly impossible to access multitudes of news website from the USA in Europe via conventional HTTP/HTTPS transactions. While the claim is made that the sites are incompatible with European law, no effort is made to rectify the situation and given the similarity of the layout of the blocking page, appears to be somewhat consistent across vast numbers of sites.

So from this, it is clear, at least to me, that these are corporate forces deciding who can be exposed to what information under the guise of market segmentation. Such is the case when searching for a specific The Spotnicks song returns Chet Atkins (for a long, long time, The Spotnicks were completely absent from Google and YouTube results in the USA, but has changed within the prior 12 months)

Is there anybody out there that is seen as more important than myself that has also written about this? Maybe they could be cited here.

Internet section[edit]

It might be beneficial to incorporate the content in the Internet section to the "By industry" section. Lilyzzf (talk) 21:25, 11 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Glaring omission[edit]

Particularly since a shortage of critical texts was brought up in the AFD, I'd like to suggest Noam Chomsky and Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media (which lays out the Chomsky-Herrmann propaganda model) are essential starting points. --Dhartung | Talk 22:29, 10 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article doesn't really make a lot of sense. I think I have an idea of the concept it is trying to describe, but there's no real explanation.82.153.211.67 19:34, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Forcing/pressuring employees to sign agreements that censor their views[edit]

I would like to see a discussion of corporations forcing/pressuring employees to sign non-disparagement agreements that censor their views (eg that they cannot criticize the corporation). CreateW (talk) 01:14, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Neutrality and factual accuracy?[edit]

I removed the "Multiple issues|disputed=March 2008|POV=March 2008" template: {{Multiple issues|disputed=March 2008|POV=March 2008}} since there has been little recent action to fix any problems and there is no discussion on the talk page to explain what problems need to be addressed. I'm adding this talk section to allow continued discussion of the issues, if it is still needed. Jeff Ogden (talk) 15:58, 10 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
