FTC motion denied, as Microsoft's Activision buyout nears completion
promptly denied.
How is the FTC trying to push back? Put simply, the FTC is arguing its failed court case was judged too harshly - that Judge Corley placed too high a bar for the FTC to hurdle when it was simply seeking more time to examine the deal. "The court not only rejected your assertion of a likely anti-competitive effect but found just the opposite," Kiley said."The record evidence points to more consumer access. So why should Americans have faith in your judgment when this Biden-appointed judge says you're so far off the mark?"
