It is really very hard to think of a more exact description of "corporate media" than a media that gets funded by the payment of hundreds of millions of dollars by a corporation for the rights.

He is literally corporate media.

I think what people mean by corporate media is media which serves corporate interests. As in, fluffing up Big Tech or Big Oil or Big Pharma. Any media organization with employees is necessarily a corporation, right? So by your definition, all media is corporate media, tautologically.
