Justice Department Warns Academy: New Oscar Rules 'May Raise Antitrust Concerns'

A large reproduction of an Oscar statuette stands at a luncheon earlier this year in Beverly Hills, Calif. The Department of Justice confirmed that it had sent a letter to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which presents the Oscars, saying it has antitrust concerns with some proposed rule changes.

The reported proposals would limit eligibility for films debuting on streaming services such as Netflix. But the federal antitrust chief objects, and he laid out why in a letter to the academy's CEO.
