๐Ÿšจ DOJ & FTC just weighed in on common ownership:

Antitrust safe harbors don't shield anticompetitive common ownership.

The editorial boards of seven leading health econ journals are taking a stand today against political influence and ideological attacks on peer review and academia. No matter what you study we want to see your scholarship and will NEVER collaborate with suppression. Please repost.
