From the supplier: Assistant Attorney General Anne K. Bingaman is likely to pay more attention to antitrust enforcement than her predecessor in the George Bush administration. The issue requiring a lot of attention will be the abuse of joint operating agreements (JOA) in the newspaper industry. Bingaman's belief that First Amendment rights and JOA's are unconnected and her position on the issue of making a public announcement to look for buyers suggests that her approach will not be very aggressive. The monopolizing move by downtown dailies to buy-out suburban weeklies also needs regulation.
