Broadcast Newsroom recounts that on July 7, 2008, Judge
Christina A. Snyder issued a decision in the case that would let
consumers challenge, on antitrust grounds, the practice of
selling video programming in bundles rather than on a channel-
by-channel basis.

Not really much to see here so far.

"However, Judge Snyder found that there were issues raised in the
suit which should be argued at trial and not handled in a motion
to dismiss."

One District judge rules against a motion to dismiss is basically the story.
