I hope you're not implying that somebody owns the media. Because that would be antisemitic.

Who the owners are is secondary and provides people a mental/emotional wall to hide behind when you point out the obvious. Better to focus on the simple fact that media concentration does exist, and that those running it do actively manipulate opinion. People will be less likely to emotionally reject a simpler construction like this. Who the individual people at the top are will come out on its own once enough people realize first that there does exist such a group, regardless of their identity.

The question is not: "who owns the media" but "who owns the owners of the media?"
