In Astra Media Group LLC v. Clear Channel Taxi Media LLC et al., Southern District of New York Judge Naomi Buchwald dismissed with prejudice an antitrust suit against Clear Channel Taxi Media LLC filed by Astra Media Group LLC, alleging that Clear Channel attempted to establish a monopoly on the rooftop advertising on New York City taxicabs. The Court found that 1) the plaintiffs failed to provide evidence that Clear Channel violated antitrust laws by communicating with the New York City Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC) about rooftop advertising systems; 2) any allegations raised from the e-mails exchanged by Clear Channel and TLC regarding the rooftop advertising mechanisms were “so conclusory and undefined that they are insufficient to establish the presence of a conspiracy; and 3) the plaintiffs could articulate no motive or incentive on the part of the TLC that would make such a bare allegation of conspiracy at all plausible.
