सुभाष धूलियामीडिया उद्योग एक तरह के सांस्कृतिक और वैचारिक उद्योग हैं। इन उद्योगों पर नियंत्रण का अर्थ होता है किसी देश की राजनीति और संस्कृति पर नियंत्रण. दुनिया के अनेक देशों में अमेरिकी सांस्कृतिक आक्रमण को लेकर असंतोष पनप रहा है जिनमें केवल विकासशील देश ही नहीं  बल्कि यूरोप के अनेक विकसित  देश भी शामिल हैं. नव उदारवादी भूमंडलीकरण के झंडावरदार विश्व व्यापार संगठन में यह मांग भी उठाई गई थी की इन संस्कृति को व्यापार से अलग रखा जाए लेकिन इसे स्वीकार नहीं किया गया और आज विचार और संस्कृति दोनों ही व्यापार के अधीन दिखाई  पड़ते हैं.  व्यापरिकृत मीडिया मुनाफे से संचालित होता है.…
