"Former Activision Exec Alleges Age Discrimination Against 'Old White Guys' at Call of Duty Publisher"

A former Activision executive is suing the company for age discrimination and violating whistleblower protection laws, alleging that CEO Bobby Kotick made ageist remarks and that the company promoted a younger non-white employee over him. The lawsuit also claims that the plaintiff faced defamatory accusations and wrongful termination, seeking damages for loss of earnings, career impact, emotional distress, and legal costs. The case highlights broader issues of ageism in the gaming industry, while Activision recently settled a lawsuit over a "frat boy" culture of harassment and discrimination.
