  • For corporate America, Federal Trade Commission chair Lina Khan has emerged as a hard-charging cop on the monopoly beat. As a watchdog and warden of competition in business, the agency tries to protect consumers from the outsized power of corporations. CBS News chief election and campaign correspondent Robert Costa talks with Khan about going after Big Tech, Big Pharma, and the biggest online retailer of them all, Amazon.

    She needs to do food supply next. Have you noticed that three companies (Kellogs, Nestles, and General Mills) manufacture about 75% of products in the grocery store? No wonder grocery prices continue going up. These companies have no competition.

    • @holycrapchris

      Those companies produce a lot of _packaged foods_ but hardly the 75% of products in the grocery store. Heck, General Mills and Kellogg's don't even control 75% of the breakfast cereal market, due to competition from Post, Quaker, private label, and others.

      Sony is the market leader in video game consoles, with more than 2x the market share of Microsoft. Yet Sony lobbied the FTC to sue to block Microsoft's Activision merger, and the FTC dutifully complied. Taxpayer money went to support a dominant market player's effort to kneecap their rival.

    Amazon is a life saver for low income households. I do comparison shopping and Amazon almost always wins. Walmart often doesn't even come close. Smaller sellers have the option to go to that platform. So before we wreck Amazon because they may not be fair to smaller sellers, consider low income people who are struggling and absolutely have no responsibility to people who are out to make as much profit on the backs of those people. More affluent households don't care so much about saving pennies, so perhaps advertising by non-Amazon sellers needs to be re-targeted to that demographic.

    Do the Networks really believe the alert viewer cannot tell the difference?
    Having their work being “watered down” this way must be very demoralizing. js
