An American flag waves outside the U.S. Department of Justice Building in Washington, U.S., December 2, 2020. Enforcers in recent weeks have sent document retention letters to talent agencies whose touring divisions arrange contracts between artists and promoters like Live Nation, according to the report. A spokesperson for Live Nation said: "We participate in competitive bidding for both artist and venue deals." The Justice Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment. In July, Politico reported that the Justice Department could file an antitrust lawsuit against Live Nation and its unit Ticketmaster by the end of the year.
