      What do you think of citing some of the material on Wikiversity under 
"Finance industry in the United States" in this regard 
(http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Finance_industry_in_the_United_States)? I want 
to add material on the advertising budgets of the finance industry compared to 
the profits of the mainstream commercial media -- to help explain why we hear so 
relatively little about this -- plus more on the half a billion dollars per year 
the finance industry invests in lobbying and political campaign contributions, 
etc.  I'm open to suggestions on what could make these kinds of analyses more 
compelling.
