The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has received a letter from the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) suggesting the organization could be violating antitrust law if it attempts to exclude Netflix from the Oscars.
The letter, first published by the entertainment magazine and website Variety, warns the Academy's chief executive Dawn Hudson that changes to Oscar eligibility rules could "suppress competition."
