DOJ to Oscars: Potential new Netflix rules could be an issue

The Justice Department is putting the Oscars on notice.

The head of the DOJ's antitrust division sent a letter to the
Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences, the organization
that puts on the awards show, warning its leaders about potential
new rules that could limit streaming services from competing for
Oscars.

The academy confirmed to NBC News that it had received the letter,
which Variety reported detailed concerns that the new rules would
raise antitrust issues and potentially break federal competition
law.

"We've received a letter from the Dept. of Justice and have
responded accordingly," an academy spokesperson said in a
statement. "The Academy's Board of Governors will meet on April 23
for its annual awards rules meeting, where all branches submit
possible updates for consideration."

The letter was sent in the wake of reports in late February that
the Oscar-winning filmmaker Steven Spielberg, the head of the
academy's directing branch, planned to endorse rule changes that
would block films that premiere on streaming services or have only
brief runs in theaters from competing for awards.
