Congress Making Strides In Blocking The Google-Yahoo Deal

Sen. Herb Kohl (D – Wisc.), chairman of the Senate Antitrust Committee is making a push to block the Google-Yahoo deal.
He believes Yahoo will have less incentive to compete against Google, as it will rely upon its main competitor for a significant increase in its revenue
Yahoo will no longer be a significant competitor in the internet advertising market, as advertisers will just go to Google for managing their ads on both Google and Yahoo search.
The further decline of Yahoo’s competitiveness in driving revenues away from their largest competitor will lead to a monopoly in search advertising.
LiveSearch will have to give away enough free airline miles to put the airlines out of business before they think they can break the Google monopoly.
