Conglomerates

When we were talking about conglamerates, I began to think about the five levels of production. If a conglomerates owns many media texts, would they then fall into the catigore of being a producer of all the media text that they own? Think about it. If a proudcer is involved with any from of production on a text, then the conglomerate that owns it would be just that. But then would they also be a content aggregators? All the media text that they own have to do with one semiotic domain, and they have to be the final apporval of what goes into the meida text so they would be in the over all big picture. So really when you think about, the conglomerates are in almost all five levels of media production.
