I don’t see how Live Nation wins this, how Ticketmaster is not separated from the concert promotion division. Now there was no jury involved in the government’s approval of the merger of Live Nation and Ticketmaster. How exactly is Live Nation going to explain this away? Of course Live Nation doesn’t believe that. But right now, after today’s testimony, I’d say Live Nation is f*cked.
