RECOGNIZING PATTERNS OF ORGANIZATION Directions: Choose the appropriate letter or letters to identify the pattern or patterns of organization.
The Telecommunications Act of 1996 included several provisions that had a dramatic impact on the media in the United States. The Act lifted the ban on the number of radio stations one company could own and allowed for the emergence of large companies like Clear Channel, which owns over one thousand stations. Another provision increased the number of local television stations one corporation could own and expanded the reach of those stations from 25 percent to 35 percent of the population. This change, in particular, spurred media concentration so that today, five companies control 75 percent of all prime-time viewing. A third provision deregulated cable rates, allowing them to increase, and a fourth gave broadcasters digital TV licenses for free instead of auctioning them off to increase the public treasury. The 1996 Telecommunications Act further eased rules on the cross-ownership of cable and broadcast channels, allowing broadcast networks to aggressively expand cable ownership.
