It has to be more than 5, Hearst, Cablevision, Comcast, Adelphia, Liberty, RSN, Conde Nast, Hachette Fillipachi, and Primedia all own newspapers, magazines, and news channels that are not owned in any way by the other 4 already mentioned. Not to mention the New York Daily News and NY Times are still indepedent aren't they?
