Y. David Scharf Offers Insight on Canceled Sinclair-Tribune Deal

August 28, 2018 – Morrison Cohen Partner Y. David Scharf was quoted in the article “Lessons from the Demise of the Sinclair-Tribune Deal” that appeared in Law360 on August 24, 2018.  David comments that a company has the obligation to act commercially reasonable in negotiating for the best possible outcome with government agencies as part of the review process:

"They're allowed to act as commercial animals for their own interest," said Y. David Scharf, a partner with Morrison Cohen LLP. "They don't have to simply say, 'DOJ and FCC want us to do this, so we're just going to do it.'"
