That dominated yesterday’s news out of Washington, DC, but today we have far more for you from the nation’s capital, including coverage of the Federal Trade Commission hearings delving into big data. We also report on the FTC’s lawsuit against the three largest US dental product distributors and have a note about Sinclair Broadcast Group entering into a consent decree with the DOJ over alleged information sharing.
