Description:

The FTC failed to prove the Microsoft/Activision Blizzard deal would substantially lessen competition, which means blockbuster acquisition might come together before next week’s deadline.

- Why the FTC’s attempt to block the Microsoft/Activision Blizzard deal failed. - The “concessions” Microsoft is making to make the deal happen.  - How we’re seeing a similar response to regulatory interest in Broadcom’s planned acquisition.

(14:09)  Is it the end of an era for superheros? Mary Long caught up with Catie Peiper to discuss trends in entertainment and Mattel's big bet on Barbie.
