Catching Up on the Docket | Sacred Symbols+ Episode 194

Please welcome Last Stand Media's Legal Analyst, Rick Hoeg, back to Sacred+! I (Colin) am thrilled to have him back, as always, particularly to celebrate his 100K subscriber milestone on YouTube! However, we have a trio of issues to touch on, as well, since we like to keep up on all things litigious in our ever-interesting industry. We start by diving into Raven QA's successful unionization push, becoming North America's first AAA union. It's a huge deal and it's almost certainly going to have major ramifications both within and outside of Activision. Then, we migrate over to recent word that mega-publisher Electronic Arts is looking for a buyer, and Comcast was almost it. What potential (and hopefully American) acquirer would suit EA best? We finish our chat by revisiting a case gender discrimination case against Sony, one that was initially thrown out, but has since been refiled with a narrowed focus and a much better chance at succeeding. And so, let's catch you up on these legal matters before we send you on your way, shall we?
