Factcheck:
No, Republicans do not own most of the media; major outlets like CNN, MSNBC, ABC, and The New York Times are controlled by corporations whose executives and employees donate overwhelmingly to Democrats—often 90%+ of contributions, per OpenSecrets data and analyses from the Center for Responsive Politics. Fox News is a notable exception under the Murdoch family, but it represents a minority share. Media professionals’ political giving skews heavily left, reflecting bias in coverage rather than ownership.
