June 23 (Reuters) - The U.S. Federal Trade Commission
said on Monday it had accepted a proposed consent order to
resolve potential anti-competitive coordination in the
advertising agency Omnicom's ( OMC ) $13.5 billion acquisition of
rival Interpublic .
"The proposed order imposes restrictions that prevent
Omnicom ( OMC ) from engaging in collusion or coordination to direct
advertising away from media publishers based on the publishers'
political or ideological viewpoints," the FTC said in a press
release.
