The media companies are controlled by the same Elite who own the energy cartels and the rest of the planet. Their job is to disseminate propaganda, i.e., to keep the sheep calm while they are being shorn. Actually, they form a major component of the Matrix's synthetic reality construct which most people have accepted as their own.

The immediate reason is the typical one: greed. They're keeping the supply artificially low to justify a price increase. The longer term (real) reasons are the ripple effects this and their other dirty tricks are causing. Nothing new here.
