Through a content analysis of four videos or posts from 25 different producers or blogs, respectively, a total of 200 pieces of content were coded and analyzed. The coding focused on main ingredients, sponsorship, type of video or post and number of views or comments. It was found that blogs were written for a specific audience, in terms of blog types, while video producers were more multi‑purpose. This could be because of sampling method or because blogs are often sought after, while videos tend to appear in viewers’ timelines.

Vertical Integration and Antitrust in Search Markets
Vertical Integration and Antitrust in Search Markets Lesley Chiou∗ y April 7, 2016 Abstract Antitrust regulators are concerned that vertical integration may allow a dominant firm in one market to lever market power into another market, and a broad theoretical literature has developed to show that in fact, the effects of vertical integration on other firms in the market are ambiguous. This paper studies how a dominant search engine Google in the upstream market of Internet search enters into different downstream markets. I find that Google's vertical integration either decreases or increases clicks to other sites, depending upon whether firms compete in pricing or quality and whether consumers are very price-sensitive. The results have direct public policy implications as regulators determine antitrust policy in newly emerging markets. JEL classification: L40, L86 Keywords: antitrust, tying, online, Internet, consumer search, vertical integration, Google ∗Economics Department, Occidental College, CA yI thank Emek Basker, Benjamin Edelman, Joanna Lahey, and Catherine Tucker for valuable comments and feedback. I would like to thank Mary Bemis, Jessica May, and Anthony Quach for excellent research assistance. 1 1 Introduction The organization of production has long attracted the attention of economists and regulators across a broad range of industries. A rich theoretical literature has illustrated that the economic consequences of a firm’s boundaries can be ambiguous. On one hand, if a firm provides both the upstream and downstream products, the firm may use dominance in one market to leverage market power into another market (Whinston, 1990; Carlton and Waldman, 2002). Antitrust regulators are concerned that a vertically integrated firm may foreclose rivals by raising their costs.

NOTE STOP BEING EVIL: A PROPOSAL FOR UNBIASED GOOGLE SEARCH Joshua G. Hazan* Since its inception in the late 1990s, Google has done as much as anyone to create an "open internet." Thanks to Google's unparalleled search al- gorithms, anyone's ideas can be heard, and all kinds of information are easier than ever to find. As Google has extended its ambition beyond its core function, however it has conducted itself in a manner that now threatens the openness and diversity of the same internet ecosystem that it once championed. By promoting its own content and vertical search ser- vices above all others, Google places a significant obstacle in the path of its competitors. This handicap will only be magnified as search engines become increasingly important and the internet continues to expand.

Neutralization of Google’s Federal Law Enforcement Risks in Antitrust, IP, & Privacy 2. Extension of Google’s Monopoly to Android & the Mobile Ecosystem 3. Elimination of Much Direct Competition to Google 4. Winner-take-all is consumer-down-fall 2008 1. DOJ blocks Google-Yahoo Ad Agreement with threat of monopolization case against Google: November 5, 2008, the W. Bush DOJ threatened a Sherman Section 1 & 2 antitrust case against Google to block the proposed Google-Yahoo ad agreement. Importantly, the DOJ “concluded that Google and Yahoo would have become collaborators rather than competitors… materially reducing important competitive rivalry between the two companies.” [Bold added.] “The Department's investigation revealed that Internet search advertising and Internet search syndication are each relevant antitrust markets and that Google is by far the largest provider of such services, with shares of more than 70 percent in both markets. Yahoo! is by far Google's most significant competitor in both markets, with combined market shares of 90 percent and 95 percent in the search advertising and search syndication markets, respectively.” 2009 2. FTC urged Google CEO Schmidt to resign from Apple’s Board as anticompetitive: August 3, 2009, the FTC forced Google’s CEO Eric Schmidt off Apple’s board as an anti-competitive opportunity for collusion because “because Google and Apple increasingly compete with each other” (i.e. via iPhone and Android smartphone competition). 2010 3.
