FTC votes to ban noncompete clauses that bar employees from working for competitors
cnbc.com/2024/04/23/ftc-votes-to-ban-noncompete-clauses-that-bar-employees-from-working-for-competitors-.html
Quick Glance: US implements ban on worker 'competition agreements' with business groups filing lawsuits
- The U.S. Federal Trade Commission has approved a framework to eliminate agreements often signed by employees to refrain from joining their employers' competitors or establishing rival businesses.
- The ban on noncompete agreements is projected to boost worker earnings by up to $488 billion over the next decade and facilitate the establishment of over 8,500 new businesses annually.
- Prominent business associations have criticized the framework and declared legal actions, contending that noncompete agreements assist companies in safeguarding trade secrets and advancing competitiveness.
- Unions have endorsed the FTC's vote in favor of the ban, hailing it as a significant triumph for workers that will enhance the national economy by fostering entrepreneurship.

independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/dan-wootton-gb-news-fired-ofcom-laurence-fox-b2507435.html
Quick Glance: Ofcom: Laurence Fox's 'misogynistic' comments breach rules
- Media watchdog Ofcom has ruled Laurence Fox’s “misogynistic” comments about journalist Ava Evans on Dan Wootton's GB News show broke broadcasting rules which protect “viewers from offensive content”.
- The watchdog has said the offence has raised 'significant concerns about GB News' editorial control of its live output.'
- The episode, which was broadcast on GB News on September 26, received 8,867 complaints with viewers objecting to the “misogynistic comments” made by actor-turned-politician Fox about about political correspondent Ms Evans.
- They added Wootton's reaction did not mitigate the potential for offence but rather 'exacerbated it' by 'contributing to the narrative in which a woman's value was judged by her physical appearance'.
