If Sony required all its retailers not to sell televisions from other companies, Sony would be engaging in what kind of activity? Is Sony's requirement legal or does it violate the Clayton Act?

What will be an ideal response?


Sony is engaged in an exclusive deal. The question of whether Sony's requirement is legal depends on whether it substantially lessens competition or creates a monopoly. If it does either, it is illegal under the Clayton Act. If it does neither, it is legal under the Clayton Act.
