Ladies and Gentlemen:

         I have acted as special Nevada counsel for Global Media Corp., a
Nevada corporation (the "Company") in connection with a Registration
Statement on Form SB-2, Registration No. 333-84145 (the "Registration
Statement") filed on July 30, 1999, under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), covering the following securities of the
Company:

         Up to 7,443,153 shares of Common Stock, par value $.001, which may
be sold by selling stockholders of the Company. The selling stockholders may
acquire the shares on conversion or exercise of shares of outstanding Series
A Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred"), related investment
options, and warrants. The shares issuable upon conversion or exercise of the
outstanding Series A Preferred, related investment options, and warrants are
referred to herein collectively as the "Shares."

         The conversion price of the Series A Preferred and the exercise
price of the related investment options are the lesser of a fixed price or a
variable price determined by reference to the market price of the Company's
Common Stock from time to time. As a result, the actual number of Shares that
the selling stockholders may receive from converting or exercising the Series
A Preferred, investment options and warrants may be more or less than the
number set forth above. The exercise price of the warrants is $8.4375 per
share.

          In connection with this opinion, I have examined the originals or
copies, certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of the
Registration Statement, the Company's Articles of Incorporation, as amended,
its Bylaws, as amended, resolutions of its Board of Directors, and such other
documents as we deemed necessary for purposes of rendering this opinion.

          I have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as
originals, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural
persons and the conformity to originals of all copies of all documents
submitted to us. I have relied upon the certificates of all public officials
and corporate officers, with respect to the accuracy of all matters contained
therein.

          Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications set
forth therein, I am of the opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized
and, when the selling stockholders acquire the Shares on conversion or
exercise of shares of outstanding Series A Preferred, related investment
options and warrants in accordance with their respective terms and
conditions, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

          The opinions set forth above are subject to the following
qualifications:

          1) I express no opinion concerning the laws of any jurisdiction
other than the laws of the State of Nevada.

          This opinion is intended solely for use in connection with the
transactions described herein. I hereby consent to the use of my name in the
Registration Statement and in the Prospectus filed as a part thereof and to
the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In
giving such consent, I do not thereby admit that I am in the category of
persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Dennis Brovarone
