Which one of these 5 media companies controls DBS?

Which one of these 5 media companies controls Charter Cable?  Cox Cable?
Comcast Cable?

John Willkie, who doesn't think that successful content companies that
haven't broken the law needs to be regulated any more than a mom-and-pop
operation that runs a bodega.

Obviously the cable companies currently have a monopoly in most areas 
and will need some oversight.

But it seems equally obvious to me there is also oligopoly control of TV 
content on cable, OTA, and satellite by 5 companies that control 
virtually ALL channels on those media.

Both need watching and probable government intervention one of these days.
