Still image from Fair Fight In The Marketplace

Provides an analytical look at America's antitrust laws that give protection to both American consumers and businesses. Also considers a more fundamental question: Can a set of regulations created by the Sherman Act at the end of the 19th century be relevant in today's era of digital technology and high-speed communications?

This video is very helpful in showing students how anti-trust laws are applied and why they are needed. I highly recommend to anyone studying the Gilded Age, because it illustrates why government regulation of business is still necessary today.
