SHUT UP!

no reason - but you said someone could tell you so I thought I would jump on the opportunity. Haha

really tho - I agree - the tweets have been at least entertaining. Guess we all need to do a healing dance so David can feel better and return tomorrow.

Side note - a friend of mine and I were talking about David’s lack of presence in the quart room today due to being sick. My friend says, suspicious, doesn’t he have a T? Maybe the DOJ put him under house arrest so he couldn’t report on their silly points that they are making. 😂 let tue conspiracy theories begin.

If only he had gotten the 9th booster shot, then he could've been healthy.

Ted did I good job, I think, explaining the process and why he was “against the merger,” before being “for it,” without stating the obvious “I was getting paid more by Frontier at the time.”

The NEA helps his argument by saying “yes, I thought it was a hard battle for DOJ approval when there was still an NEA in play, that’s gone now”.

Ted’s a smooth talker, the summary didn’t seem like the DOJ really hit with the gotcha moment that ‘even Spirit was against the deal originally’ which they focused on in their complaint.

I think at this point it comes down to which side better lays out the financials and market impacts of the three possible scenarios: the airlines don’t merger, they merge and become a successful legacy competitor, or they merge and are ineffectual while leaving a gap in the ULCC market.

I was thinking JB told him to stay away because today they would roll out their 2027 combined network plan and potential focus city map. Can’t have that leaking to the plebs on Twitter.

Real journalists aren't allowed to report, but somehow a blogger is tweeting out a play by play blatantly under his own name?

My speculation - I doubt he'll be back. That's not conspiracy thinking at all. He broke the rules, got caught and got asked to leave. I'm surprised he did it for 2 days, tbh. That being said, I appreciated the fact that he did it, but we all can agree that it was against the rules.

Against the rules? B6 and NK wanted a closed court but the judge denied that and said it would be public. https://www.law360.com/articles/1737...ntitrust-trial

Rules vary considerably on tweeting a court case. Where did you see that it was against the rules to tweet it out?

Something is up... 3 people that I saw tweeting about the case the first 2 days are all not present today. The whole sick things seems fishy to me as well, and I wouldnt be surprised if this is it.

maybe they all ate the fish?

I would agree with your sentiment, except William McGee, who just so happens to be totally against this merger, or apparently, against any merger, is still in the court room also tweeting. However, he is not tweeting nearly as much as David was, and he is only tweeting things that lean towards the DOJS case. Now THATS sus!
