Which of the following is not a risk of media globalization?

The creation of cultural and ideological biases

The creation of local monopolies

The risk of cultural imperialism

The loss of local culture

The correct answer is B. The creation of local monopolies

Explanation:

The term "media globalization" refers to the integration of media all around the world which allows ideas from different places and cultures to be exchanged. This type of media has different risks or disadvantages that include the creation of biases related to culture and ideology as information is exchanged without a real understanding of the cultural context; the promotion of cultural imperialism as ideas from certain cultures are shared and imposed over others and loss of local cultures due to the exposure or ideas from other cultures. However, the creation of local monopolies is not a risk of this media exchange as in globalization the global prevails over the local level and therefore in media globalization it is possible global monopolies emerge but not local monopolies.
