| | Monthly Review March 2003 Robert W. McChesney & John Bellamy Foster |
| | The clout of large advertisers has grown; approximately 80 percent of U.S. ad spending is funneled through the eight largest companies that own advertising agencies, like Omnicom or Interpublic, which gives them considerable ability to name their tune with corporate media firms more than willing to play ball. | | | Coca-Cola had such success as the ubiquitous product displayed on Fox’s 2002 American Icon program, that the fee for “joint sponsors” for its subsequent reality show was set at $25 million apiece. | | | Everything now seems fair game: buildings use digital technologies to sport “urban wall displays” that are to old-fashioned billboards what rocket ships are to the horse-and-buggy; the tops of taxi cabs, public garages, subway entrances, the walls above urinals, golf holes, even baby buggies are being festooned with advertising. |

| | Executives from all of these companies expect 3-D TV to be mainstream within a decade and intend to somehow be a part of it. | | | Nevertheless, a small New York startup called X3D Technology demonstrated a 3-D 50- inch plasma screen at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in January, and it had a roomful of analysts and attendees transfixed. | | | In fact, until television starts filming in 3-D, the industry already has software that can convert a regular two-dimensional TV broadcast into 3-D. "Our [conversion] software is by no means perfect," says Dimension co-founder Jesse Eichenlaub. |
