August 1 Trial Date Set for DoJ Case Against PRH - Publishers Weekly

Only 7 Days until Christmas.

Today's trip into the Catosphere took Panzer to the Publishers Weekly site. With just a little digging in the posts there our little kitty boy found one about the Penguin Random House (PRH) blocked acquisition of Simon and Schuster.

 

According to the post by Jim Milliot, the Department of Justice (DoJ) and Penguin Random House (PRH) have agreed to an August 1 trial date for the DoJ blocked PRH  acquisition of Simon and Schuster. The DoJ says the acquisition will be harmful to authors as well as consumers (book purchasers). PRH says this is false.

 

Panzer says, "At least this one doesn't look like it's going to go on forever like some of these court cases do."
