Silvio Berlusconi, prime minister of Italy, owns nearly half of the country’s television stations, its most popular news magazine, its largest advertising agency, and a publishing house. His brother owns a major newspaper. What is the MOST LIKELY consequence of this situation on the Italian media? a. limitations on freedom of the press
b. a greater variety of programming
c. an increased diversity of viewpoints
D. more reporters investigating government corruption

a. limitations on freedom of the press

Explanation:

As a result of the prime minister of Italy having majority ownership of the press establishments in the country, the MOST LIKELY consequence of this situation on the Italian media is that there will be limitations on freedom of the press.

This is because, as majority owner, Mr Berlusconi can attempt to control what the press says thereby severely limiting the freedom of the press.
