Description of economic activity
The cities of Dallas and Fort Worth are the anchor cities of the Metroplex. Dallas and its suburbs have one of the highest concentrations of corporate headquarters in the United States. As such, one of the largest industries in the Dallas area is conducting business. For example, with Texas Instruments , EDS , Perot Systems , i2 , and other companies based in Dallas, the Metroplex contains the largest Information Technology industry in the state. On the other end of the business spectrum, and on the other side of the Metroplex, the Texas farming and ranching industry is based in Fort Worth. Brinker International is the largest employer in the Metroplex. Several major defense manufacturers, including Lockheed Martin , Bell Helicopter Textron , and Raytheon , maintain significant operations in the Metroplex. ExxonMobil , the #1 corporation on the Fortune 500 listings, is headquartered in Irving, Texas .
The Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport ( IATA Airport Code : DFW ) is the largest airport in the state of Texas. The airport is located between Dallas and Fort Worth.

Media
The cities of Dallas and Fort Worth have their own newspapers, The Dallas Morning News and the Fort Worth Star-Telegram , respectively. Historically, the two papers were restricted in readership to their own counties; Tarrant County households would never read the Morning News and vice versa. As the two cities' suburbs have grown together, a large region of overlap has developed in the area around Arlington where Dallas and Tarrant Counties meet. This pattern has been repeated in other print media, radio, and television, but since the 1970s all of the television stations and most of the FM radio stations have chosen to transmit from Cedar Hill so as to serve the entire market, and are programmed likewise. A recent phenomenon seen most clearly in the DFW market has been the rise of " 80-90 move-ins", whereby stations have been moved from distant markets, in some cases as far away as Oklahoma, and relicensed to anonymous small towns in the Metroplex to serve as additional DFW stations. According to 100000watts.com , the market has 38 AM stations, 58 FM stations (many of them class Cs ), and 18 full-power television stations.
