“according to the Congressional Record:”
You apparently jump quickly to conclusions. No one said anything about fact.
After reading the representative’s comment I did some further checking and learned that Rockefeller and Morgan did, in fact, go shopping for some media publications. I was uninformed about it but, since you are well-informed as you suggest, you wouldn’t have bothered to investigate on your own.

Interesting use of language.
"Go shopping for" seems a roundabout way of admitting that they did not actually buy up the US media.
So what is your source documenting this very ominous bout of window shopping?
Our leftist friend, Democrat Representative Callaway knew that he couldn't actually accuse these evil employers of millions of Americans of trying to control the US media.
So he alleged, instead, that these demonic capitalists had signed agreements with newspapers to secretly plant Morgan and Rockefeller employees in editorships at a handful of newspapers.
But Callaway, like yourself, had no sources he could cite for his thesis.
I'm sure he did "some further checking" as well, though.
Try and keep up...
With your poorly sourced nonsense? Done.
Though I confess that I'm at a loss as to why it would be immoral for a banker or a railroad owner to add a newspaper to his list of investments.
