Define the criminal activity.
Let me tell you about how TV stations in LA have manipulated the Nielsen TV ratings. In the past it was known that Nielsen had more "diaries" and meters in the Long Beach area. So the TV stations increased their news coverage of Long Beach during the ratings period.
I think what the TV stations did is no different than what these players did. And no one accused the TV stations of committing a crime when they covered more Long Beach news to boost their ratings.
