Show Notes
Live Nation, parent of Ticketmaster, faces backlash over internal messages from employee Ben Baker, who called customers stupid. Despite a federal settlement, attorneys general from over two dozen states, including Massachusetts, plan to continue suing due to alleged antitrust violations. The broader lawsuit accuses Live Nation of exclusive deals, artist pressure, and buying up competitors. The company defends the messages as casual banter, but state leaders argue the settlement doesnt address high prices and limited choices for fans, artists, and venues.
