Violation

Machine-translated summary — verify against original

The Japan Baseball Organization, through an agent, granted television broadcast rights for the 2024 Japanese Series. It was found to have engaged in conduct that may violate Article 19 of the Anti-Monopoly Act, specifically concerning unfair trade practices under Paragraph 14, which prohibits obstructing competitors. The conduct involved restricting media coverage activities and coordinating changes in broadcast rights for Major League Baseball games that overlapped with other Japanese Series games broadcasted by different television broadcasters. The Fair Trade Commission issued a warning on June 11, 2024.
