BlackRock and the Vanguard Group, the two largest asset management firms in the world, combined own The New York Times and other legacy media, along with Big Pharma.
Big Pharma and mainstream media are largely owned by two asset management firms: BlackRock and Vanguard.
Drug companies are driving COVID-19 responses — all of which, so far, have endangered rather than optimized public health — and mainstream media have been willing accomplices in spreading their propaganda, a false official narrative that leads the public astray and fosters fear based on lies.
Vanguard and BlackRock are the top two owners of Time Warner, Comcast, Disney and News Corp, four of the six media companies that control more than 90% of the U.S. media landscape.
BlackRock and Vanguard form a secret monopoly that own just about everything else you can think of too. In all, they have ownership in 1,600 American firms, which in 2015 had combined revenues of $9.1 trillion. When you add in the third-largest global owner, State Street, their combined ownership encompasses nearly 90% of all S&P 500 firms.
Vanguard is the largest shareholder of BlackRock. Vanguard itself, on the other hand, has a unique structure that makes its ownership more difficult to discern, but many of the oldest, richest families in the world can be linked to Vanguard funds.
“A Bloomberg report states that both these companies in the year 2028, together will have investments in the amount of 20 trillion dollars. That means that they will own almost everything.’”
Interestingly, Vanguard is the largest shareholder of BlackRock, as of March 2021. Vanguard itself, on the other hand, has a “unique” corporate structure that makes its ownership more difficult to discern.

Per the article:
As reported in the featured video:
“The elite who own Vanguard apparently do not like being in the spotlight but of course they cannot hide from who is willing to dig. Reports from Oxfam and Bloomberg say that 1% of the world, together owns more money than the other 99%. Even worse, Oxfam says that 82% of all earned money in 2017 went to this 1%.
“In other words, these two investment companies, Vanguard and BlackRock hold a monopoly in all industries in the world and they, in turn, are owned by the richest families in the world, some of whom are royalty and who have been very rich since before the Industrial Revolution.”
While it would take time to sift through all of Vanguard’s funds to identify individual shareholders, and therefore owners of Vanguard, a quick look-see suggests Rothschild Investment Corp. and the Edmond De Rothschild Holding are two such stakeholders. Keep the name Rothschild in your mind as you read on, as it will feature again later.
The video above also identifies the Italian Orsini family, the American Bush family, the British Royal family, the du Pont family, the Morgans, Vanderbilts and Rockefellers, as Vanguard owners.
BlackRock/Vanguard own Big Pharma
According to Simply Wall Street, in February 2020, BlackRock and Vanguard were the two largest shareholders of GlaxoSmithKline, at 7% and 3.5% of shares respectively. At Pfizer, the ownership is reversed, with Vanguard being the top investor and BlackRock the second-largest stockholder.

Keep in mind that stock ownership ratios can change at any time, since companies buy and sell on a regular basis, so don’t get hung up on percentages. The bottom line is that BlackRock and Vanguard, individually and combined, own enough shares at any given time that we can say they easily control both Big Pharma and the centralized legacy media — and then some
Why does this matter? It matters because drug companies are driving COVID-19 responses — all of which, so far, have endangered rather than optimized public health — and mainstream media have been willing accomplices in spreading their propaganda, a false official narrative that has, and still is, leading the public astray and fosters fear based on lies.
BlackRock/Vanguard own the media
When it comes to The New York Times, as of May 2021, BlackRock is the second-largest stockholder at 7.43% of total shares, just after The Vanguard Group, which owns the largest portion (8.11%).
In addition to The New York Times, Vanguard and BlackRock are also the top two owners of Time Warner, Comcast, Disney and News Corp, four of the six media companies that control more than 90% of the U.S. media landscape.
Needless to say, if you have control of this many news outlets, you can control entire nations by way of carefully orchestrated and organized centralized propaganda disguised as journalism.
BlackRock-and-Vanguard own the media.
If your head is spinning already, you’re not alone. It’s difficult to describe circular and tightly interwoven relationships in a linear fashion. The world of corporate ownership is labyrinthine, where everyone seems to own everyone, to some degree.
Considering BlackRock in 2018 announced that it has “social expectations” from the companies it invests in, its potential role as a central hub in the Great Reset and the “build back better” plan cannot be overlooked.
That assertion will become even clearer once you realize that this duo’s influence is not limited to Big Pharma and the media. Importantly, BlackRock also works closely with central banks around the world, including the U.S. Federal Reserve, which is a private entity, not a federal one. It lends money to the central bank, acts as an adviser to it, and develops the central bank’s software.
BlackRock/Vanguard also own shares of a long list of other companies, including Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Facebook and Alphabet Inc. As illustrated in the graphic of BlackRock and Vanguard’s ownership network below, featured in the 2017 article “These Three Firms Own Corporate America” in The Conversation, it would be near-impossible to list them all.
In all, BlackRock and Vanguard have ownership in some 1,600 American firms, which in 2015 had combined revenues of $9.1 trillion. When you add in the third-largest global owner, State Street, their combined ownership encompasses nearly 90% of all S&P 500 firms.

I highly recommend you share the link below with everyone. It is updated continuously.
Unlimited interest free money was already our doom, and Covid pushed it all forward by 10 for years.
I see a real effort to get us back to a Medieval approach to ruling society. There should be Lords and Peasants. The rich land-owners control the government and structure everything to their own benefit. The Peasants just try to hang on by their fingernails and have to accept the fact that they have neither political nor economic power.

Yup—what matters more are the names on the individual human beings on the Boards of Directors (which are usually interlocked with other corporate Boards of Directors).
Our enemies need to be identified.
They are human beings.
While I agree with you.

Who votes the Institutional investor shares?
Are they represented on the companies BOD and have influence?
Silly article -
‘Vanguard’ doesn’t own Pfizer, mutual fund holders who own vanguard funds own those shares - so basically tens of millions of everyday investors who invest in things like the low cost and highly popular Vanguard S&P 500 fund.
If you own almost any index mutual fund, chances are you own a piece of Pfizer, wether you know it or not.
BlackRock, makes me think of the black stone.
Vanguard definition, “foremost part of an advancing army”
...just saying
“Who votes the Institutional investor shares?”
Vanguard by policy and strategy does not vote its shares.
The reason for its success is its low overhead. Having analysts and MBAs to decided how it should vote would cost money.

Yup—Chasing the rabbit down into the rabbit hole is a waste of time—until you finally find the Queen!
Now, don't go pouring water on FR's flames of conspiracy theories.
I am SHOCKED the more I learn about BlackRock and the Vanguard Group.
They get trillions of dollars from the federal reserve at no cost. They invest as they please. To get TRILLIONS of free taxpayer dollars, you can bet they do so in a manner the deep-state requires. That means for major corporations to get the investment dollars propping up their shares of stock, they have to play by their rules. That means playing by all the leftist globalist PC agenda driven BS that is destroying our nation.
Without the trillions the fed is giving them to prop up the stock market, the market would CRASH in a big way. They are also investing in private real estate because they know they money won’t be free for us to use when we try to buy a home. This is just another deep-state redistribution of wealth.
He who has the gold, makes the rules. Blackrock and Vanguard are only acting on behalf of the deep-state.
