Argentina’s Supreme Court Keeps Freeze on Part of Media Law

Argentina’s Supreme Court kept a freeze on a portion of the country’s media law that requires companies including Grupo Clarin SA to sell some of their assets within a year, the Court Information Center said.

The seven-member court unanimously backed lower court rulings that prevented it from going into effect, according to a statement on the information center’s website. The judges said the lower courts will make a final ruling on the law’s validity within a “reasonable” period of time.
