    December 28, 2018 The Honorable Joseph Simons Chairman Federal Trade Commission 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20580 Dear Chairman Simons, Thank you for inviting public comment on the question of whether U.S. antitrust agencies should publish new vertical merger guidelines, and how those guidelines should address competitive harms, transaction-related efficiencies, and behavioral remedies. We submit these comments on behalf of the Writers Guild of America West (“WGAW”), a labor organization representing more than 10,000 professional writers of motion pictures, television, radio, and Internet programming, including news and documentaries. Our members and the members of our affiliate, Writers Guild of America East (jointly, “WGA”) create nearly all of the scripted entertainment viewed in theaters and on television today as well as most of the original scripted series now offered by online video distributors (“OVDs”) such as Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, Crackle, and more. The Non-Horizontal Merger Guidelines (“Guidelines”), originally issued in 1984,1 are the governing document of U.S. vertical antitrust enforcement. They rely, however, upon outdated economic theories that not only fail to promote and protect competition, but, in some cases, obstruct appropriate antitrust enforcement. Large vertical mergers in key industries have caused harm to consumers and failed to deliver on their promised innovations, efficiencies, and public benefits. The current Guidelines’ bias toward false negatives, or non-findings of harm, enables incumbents to consolidate market power and undermine competition. Recent vertical mergers in the telecommunications and entertainment industries illustrate the deficiencies of the current regulatory regime and provide evidence of the need for new guidelines.

The home library has taken on many different forms throughout history. The German philosopher, Walter Benjamin, wrote about this magical relationship between collector and object in his essay “Unpacking My Library”. To him, ownership of an object allowed the collector to unlock memories of its past and “renew the old world”, while also creating new memories with that object (Klinger 65).

  • Digital Flows from TCM to Filmstruck
    Digital Flows from TCM to FilmStruck Hemrani Vyas, Turner Classic Movies - Programming Since its inception in 1994, Turner Classic Movies has operated much like a traditional broadcast network—using a “broad” programming flow to create themes for its daily schedule. The 24-hour programming is a flow that only changes when primetime begins—so audiences are receiving two separate narrative structures, more specifically a clear day and night part. This structure of flow has now carried over into TCM’s newest digital property; FilmStruck. While the site is not a constant streaming service, the film bundles are heavily curated, consisting of hosted introductions and bonus materials (replicating the TCM linear model). It was announced in February 2018 that FilmStruck would collaborate with the Warner Bros. Archive to now host the largest streaming classic film library—aptly called TCM Select. Warner Archive has now sunset its streaming services and all previous members have transitioned to FilmStruck—a flow in itself. In an effort to bridge the gap between the predominantly younger, cable-less, cinephiles who gravitate towards FilmStruck and the Criterion Collection (whose entire library is housed within the service), and the intrepid cable-subscribing TCM fan, the TCM Select “channel” was added. This new channel allows exclusive streaming access to the Warner Brothers classic film library; golden age classics typically found on the linear network are now readily available to audiences that most likely no longer carry a cable subscription. With the video rental era quickly fading, streaming audiences today are arguably over served in accessibility to contemporary films—spanning all studios and countries.
