Book Synopsis
Groundbreaking study of cross-media ownership allays concerns of content convergence monopolization among newspapers and television.

Trade Review
[W]hat the authors discovered was rather surprising and intriguing: contrary to popular belief, content-sharing in the Canadian media isn't as widespread as previously thought.... [I]n my view, this important and well-researched study provides a window into a period of time when media convergence was still regarded as a powerful tool-and seems to prove that various concerns may have been overstated. For the most part, TV stations and newspapers owned by the same company don't necessarily think alike, act alike or even report the news alike.... Hence, the identity of each entity, as well as the guiding democratic principles, appears to have remained intact." Michael Taube, Literary Review of Canada, August 2012 [Full review at http://bit.ly/TFtGy8]
"The authors report on what is said to be the first in-depth study of top French- and English-Canadian news companies, and illustrates the effects of cross-media ownership on providing news with content sharing." Book News Inc., 2013
