The BBC report https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-45271286 on Jeremy Corbyn's proposals for the future of journalism in the UK.
'Mr Corbyn has long supported a review of media ownership rules amid longstanding concerns within the party about the power of companies such as Rupert Murdoch's News Corp and 21st Century Fox.
Labour's 2017 manifesto promised to give regulator Ofcom more powers to protect media plurality and to reconsider rules on who is fit and proper to run TV and radio stations.'
Oddly Jeremy Corbyn seems unconcerned about the UK media's largest and most powerful news organisation, the BBC. I suppose that as the BBC operates more as the Labour Party's propaganda arm then its dominant media position is not something that worries him.
