Today, our group (Kyle, Katie and Myself) got together to start and finish our media map. We each had sort of read over the ideas of the project and what it was supposed to turn out like, but all in all we were all pretty lost on what to do. When we got together and started putting our heads together, we began to realize the task at hand. What we had to do was find a certain company or big gun branch that owned a variety of companies that people would never know were actually owned by that one big company.
After some thought, our group decided to go with CTV (Canadian Televison Network) which we began to search for information on www.yourmedia.ca. We found some relative information regarding media ownership, and then continued on to other sites such as wikipedia and ctv.ca in order to find who the company actually owns. The information we found was pretty astonishing, and it turns out CTV actually owns the Globe and Mail, many radio stations, and even has a relation to the Toronto Maple Leafs (not like that is a good thing!)
Out of this project, our group learned that not only is there more than meets the eye when it comes to girls, but media ownership as well and that it is a compound thing that we need to understand or else in our future things may go wrong when we do not give credit to who really deserves it. This was a successful project in the end even after all of our debating on what we really had to do or make for this assignment!
