Who owns them?

Depends on which one. Electronics, the Chicoms (under license). Most of it, the Canadians. the British sold to the Japs, who sold a chunk to Khazaks; went bankrupt and that's how the Canadians got it. As someone else posted the entertainment part went went to CBS then to Viacom which is now 15% owned by Warren Buffett' Berkshire Hathaway.

I thought the same thing. Maybe Canada? Ever watch the story of George Westinghouse? He seemed to be a very decent man who was defeated by not so decent men.
