The U.S. Department of Justice is opposing a merger of two huge publishers. How do authors really feel about this deal? https://apnews.com/article/entertainment-business-united-states-publishing-book-publishing-6cc11dea867b63b1edad1cc2c9a353b2
I know the Author's Guild opposes it. They've been opposed to consolidation in publishing for quite some time.
I don't blame them, there are too few major publishers out there as it is. We just keep losing them and pretty soon, it'll just be the Big One.
I must admit i thought this merger had already happened... a member who is no longer with us had her toys all over the floor because someone referred to the big 5 instead of the big 4 last year
