The Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee issued a warning this week to liberal groups who of recent have been pushing advertisers to drop conservatives companies, that this behavior could result in them being investigated for anti-trust behavior. Jordan says that there appears to be “this coordination and collusion amongst companies to limit information and ads going to organizations like [Just the News] and other conservative outlets.” The Chairman says that this rank order that is being used, is “dangerous” as “this coordination that may be taking place among these companies, and how they manipulate the marketplace.” The letter sent by the Judiciary Committee highlighted that this could be an “anti-trust issue,” due to the components of multiple companies engaging in “coordination, limits of trade, and it's all targeted towards impacting conservative outlets.”
