		Saban remembers precisely where he was when he clinched the deal for ProSiebenSat.1: on his cellphone, as he was standing in the middle of the former concentration camp at Dachau, where he and his family had gone to visit.

		Saban’s deal-making in a concentration camp or the increasing concentration of the mainstream corporate media into among narrow circles are unlikely to evoke any remarks from the pundits of the press.
