Media proprietor

A media proprietor or media mogul refers to a successful entrepreneur or businessperson who controls, through personal ownership or via a dominant position in any media related company or enterprise, media consumed by a large number of individuals. Those with significant control, ownership, and influence of a large company in the mass media may also be called a tycoon, baron, or business magnate. Social media creators can now be considered in the realm of media on a mass scale. The creators and founders of such channels deliver media to a large consumer base.

History

In the United States, newspaper proprietors first became prominent in the 19th century with the development of mass circulation newspapers. In the 20th century, proprietorship expanded to include ownership of radio and television networks, as well as film studios, publishing houses, and more recently internet and other forms of multimedia companies. Reflecting this, the term "press baron" was replaced by "media baron", and the term "media mogul" was popularized. In modern relevance, social media sites need to be taken into account such as Facebook in relation to Mark Zuckerberg who is an extremely important Media proprietor. Media and technology play a significant role in mass media production.

Press Rewind

by: Alan Parsons Project

If you could press rewind and do it all again
Would you change your mind, would you change a thing?
Would you make it easy, would you make it hard?
Would you play the game under another name
Or ask the dealer for one more card?
Bang your drum, sing your song
Don't give up, keep the faith, it won't be long
You've been high, you've been high and you've been low
Press rewind and let it go, let it go
Have you had your say, seen all you wanted to see?
Or did your dream give way to reality?
Don't think it's all too late for you to even try
Before you clip your wings, see what this life brings
You've waited too long, it's time to fly
Bang your drum, sing your song
Don't give up, keep the faith, it won't be long
You've been high, you've been high and you've been low
Press rewind and let it go
Do you believe in fate and what is meant to be?
Could you imagine life without a guarantee?
Would you appreciate that time was on your side?
A flash of second sight, a chance to do it right
Is something money just can't buy?
Bang your drum, sing your song
Don't give up, keep the faith, it won't be long
You've been high, you've been high and you've been low
Press rewind and let it go
Bang your drum, sing your song
Don't give up, keep the faith, it won't be long
You've been high, you've been high and you've been low
Press rewind and let it go
Bang your drum, sing your song
Don't give up, keep the faith, it won't be long
You've been high, you've been high and you've been low
