Hal Singer Quoted in Los Angeles Times on Ticketmaster Decision
Econ One Managing Director Hal Singer was quoted in the Los Angeles Times following the federal jury decision finding Live Nation and Ticketmaster liable for maintaining an illegal monopoly in the live entertainment industry.
Singer emphasized the importance of meaningful structural remedies:
“Forcing a Ticketmaster sale probably is the only remedy that will bring real change. We’re not out of the woods quite yet. We’ve kind of tilted the probability.… [A divestiture] could change the competitive balance [between artists and Live Nation]. But that requires that a meaningful remedy follows the liability. You need both.”
