biases of the "real" news organizations. For example, Italy has two or
more newsweeklies more or less on the Time/Newsweek format. I know
that one is owned by Berlusconi's empire, but I can't remember which
one. So I don't bother to read either (I read the Economist instead).
Probably most educated Italians do know exactly who owns what, but
there is a large mass of uneducated people who don't.
