A U.S. Senate subcommittee will investigate competition in the search-engine and broadband markets. Senator Herb Kohl, a Wisconsin Democrat, listed search and broadband competition among the top issues. Kohl’s focus comes after complaints from some websites about the fairness of Google rankings. The subcommittee has not scheduled hearings on search competition, but will look at Google’s acquisition of ITA Software. Other priorities for the subcommittee include competition in cable and satellite TV industries, the airline industry and pharmaceutical industry.”]
