TECHNOLOGY

digital cameras to shoot movies or TV
shows, easier to edit and distribute.

known as the big media company, one media
company could own smaller companies that
produce different types of media. (Walt

soundtracks, books or comic versions of the
film, and even merchandise.
-maximizing the economic opportunities within
its conglomerate.
-crosses over non media platforms (fast food
chain tie ups, toy manufacturer or fashion retail
tie-ups). It will now be a media franchise.

controversial story, it might put the
newspaper company in trouble. Which is
why we have blogs—a website, usually
maintained by one person, where he or
she posts commentary, descriptions of
events, pictures or videos. Ex. Twitter

through the internet, it is called a podcast. It also

like vlogs or documentaries.
