Judge Asks Google, Oracle About Paying Off Bloggers
U.S. District Court Judge William Alsup wants to know if either Google or Oracle paid journalists or bloggers to write about the case. Pass the popcorn, this could get interesting.
The judge overseeing the Oracle vs. Google lawsuit has just ruled that both parties have to disclose if they paid off any journalists or bloggers to write or comment on the case, according to court documents filed today. Apparently each company made payments to someone who wrote about the case.
