A hearing before the Senate took place to find a solution for the decades old problem that seems to be getting worse with junk fees, scalpers and resale bots. Representing artists is MAGA-friendly Kid Rock, who has been urging Congress and other federal regulators to crack down on ticketing abuses after standing with President Trump during last year\u2019s enforcement push. Also testifying is \u2018Live Nation\u2019 executive Dan Wall, who has been under heavy scrutiny as they are facing a major antitrust lawsuit filed by the DOJ.   <\/p>\n<p>FOX\u2019s John Saucier speaks with FOX\u2019s Rich Edson, senior national correspondent for FOX News Channel (FNC) who monitored the hearing, who says there are multiple factors that surround the skyrocketing cost of live entertainment.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/listen.foxaud.io\/rundown?sid=fnr.podeve\">Click Here\u2060\u2060\u2060\u2060\u2060\u2060\u2060\u2060\u2060\u2060\u2060\u2060\u2060\u2060<\/a> To Follow \u2018The FOX News Rundown: Evening Edition\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Learn more about your ad choices.
