"As a result, sources said, only one attorney from the Justice Department's staff could be in the room at any one time and language added to the agreement by Microsoft in the final hours got only cursory review." Specifically, the last half of that sentence. ".... and language added to the agreement by Microsoft in the final hours got only cursory review. " Wouldn't the language added by one of the parties get more than "cursory review"?
