  MediaCorp - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
MediaCorp (Chinese: 新传媒; pinyin: Xīn Chuánméi) is a conglomeration group of commercial media companies in Singapore specializing largely in television and radio broadcasting, and to a lesser extent, in periodicals and newspaper publishing and filmmaking.
MediaCorp has held a virtualised monopoly in the television broadcasting market, and most of the radio broadcasting market for a substantial amount of years.
Losses by both companies due to competition led to a merger, and as of 1 January 2005, MediaCorp once again became the monopoly in the mass market free-to-air terrestrial television provider.
