The following commentary comes from an independent investor or market observer as part of TheStreet's guest contributor program, which is separate from the company's news coverage.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- I have spent a considerable portion of the last week discussing several media stocks on TheStreet. My article history contains stories that explain why I am bearish Netflix(NFLX) and Sirius XM(SIRI) and bullish Bell Canada(BCE) , Rogers Communications(RCI) , Time Warner(TWX) , Madison Square Garden(MSG) and Pandora(P) .

In this article, I outline a portfolio of media stocks that could work for some long-term investors who like to speculate a little and use options frequently, but conservatively as part of a growth-and-income portfolio. These are the same types of strategies we discuss each week with subscribers in my Options Investing Newsletter. As always, use these ideas as a starting point for your own research. Your unique circumstances might warrant a different approach.
