New York Times Crystal Ball: Media Consolidation in 2004

The New York Times' Business Editor Larry Ingrassia was interviewed for Media Life Magazine and this chestnut dropped when asked what he thought the media story for 2004 might be:

"Media consolidation in broadcast television and cable, in entertainment, and how that plays out. You see it in the effort by Comcast to acquire Disney.

"There�s consolidation going on. How that proceeds and the extent to which it affects consumers of entertainment, news and information is a hugely important story."
