Unfortunately this is misleading in two ways:
1. Section 12 of the 2010 HMG's also discussed monopsony power over input providers (including workers)

After Neo-Brandeis - ProMarket
Daniel Francis reviews the evolutionary and revolutionary dimensions of the Biden administration’s antitrust work, and argues that these two projects have been in deep tension. He concludes that the a...
I think my @nyulaw.bsky.social colleague Daniel Francis provides a clear and balanced summary of the Neo-Brandeis shift in antitrust.
It is worth a read for all IO Economists (and perhaps more importantly macro economists who've recently discovered IO).
