Sin grandes cambios en la posición individual, los grandes grupos de medios y entretenimiento de Estados Unidos siguen ocupando los primeros lugares del palmarés mundial.
Sin embargo, las modificaciones tienen como una de sus raíces de los procesos de fusiones, absorciones o ventas de empresas. Así, en el listado de 2015 ya no aparecerá DirecTV, pues fue adquirido por AT&T; Pearson perderá fuerza gracias a la venta del cotidiano Financial Times, y Cablevision Systems Corporation será absorbido por Altice Group, entre los cambios más importantes.
Dentro de nuestro ámbito de desarrollo, la brasileña Globo se mantiene como la empresa iberoamericana más importante, y Televisa prevalece como la más relevante en el caso de las empresas de medios en español.
