An investor group involving Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick is in final talks to take a controlling stake in News Corp.’s social network site MySpace, according to a source familiar with the matter.

Kotick’s involvement is personal and nothing to do with Activision at this stage, the source said.

Under the terms of the discussions, News Corp., which owns The Post, would retain an equity stake, possibly of about 20 percent, but that has yet to be confirmed.
