From the early days, ownership and management of mass media was limited to Philippine citizens, or to corporations, cooperatives or associations, wholly-owned and managed by them.
Mula pa noong araw, ang pagmamay-ari at pamamahala ng mass media ay para lang sa mga mamamayan ng Pilipinas, o sa mga korporasyon, kooperatiba o asosasyon, na buung-buong pagmamay-ari at pinangangasiwaan nila.
