Penguin Random House and Simon & Schuster submitted that the merger would not result in any change in competition. Because of the publisher`s printing model, publishers who work at the same publisher are constantly bidding for the same book.

Bestsellers are random. That`s why we`re the Random House! He described PRH`s editors and editors as «angel investors in our writers and their dreams, their stories.» It was clear that a new publisher from Penguin Random House and Simon & Schuster would dominate the industry in a way no one had seen before, but few in the industry seemed to believe that then-President Trump`s seemingly business-friendly Justice Department would care enough about the proposed merger to try to interfere.

In the testimonial process, these industry giants spoke with unusual clarity about the parts of the publishing world that remain hidden from the public.
