Gizmodo writes: “An industry watchdog group says the judge tasked with ultimately determining the fate of Microsoft’s $68.7 billion bid to acquire Activision Blizzard should recuse herself because her son works at Microsoft. U.S. District Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley revealed the family connection during a pre-hearing conference last week. Though Corley said her son works outside of the gaming division, the watchdog group says that proximity to the company still poses a clear conflict of interest.”
