    If you merge, you have less employees to pay to tell the same things, right?

    Mass media is merging because of economies of scope.

    RE: “personal media splintering”

    I notice that on the Web, people are demonstrating their natural tendency to divide into like-minded groups. Privacy settings, passwords, and other features were devised to enable that. One-size-fits-all mass media might be a counterproductive inclination.
