Not to nit pick, but the ideological capture of universities, media outlets, and corporate HR departments by the illiberal left is very much a Gramscian turn.
A company currying favor with press outlets not so much.
What is the point of capturing institutions if you don't have a propaganda machine to further the cause?
Why would you exclude companies -- especially Big Tech and massively wealthy social influencers -- from the gramscian analysis?
No i wouldn’t. But the Gramscian march is about committed ideologues taking over the institutions from the inside, not currying favor from other companies through contracts or payments.

Why not? Once they’ve gained control of the institutions and the wealth, why not just buy out any opposition or anyone willing to be a paid agent ?
I don’t see the left concerned about scruples over such things.
