AG Holder to Consider Relaxing Newspaper Anti-Trust Laws
Seems that while the government is in a intervening mood they are going to direct some of their energy to the newspaper industry. Nervous yet? Attorney General Eric Holder is considering relaxing anti-trust laws to make it easier for newspapers to merge or combine operations.
Says Holder: “I think it’s important for this nation to maintain a healthy newspaper industry. So to the extent that we have to look at our enforcement policies and conform them to the realities that that industry faces, that’s something that I’m going to be willing to do…I’d like to think 20, 30, 40 years from now people will still be reading the newspaper.”
Right.
