$115 mil??? Man, I wish somebody would secretly record me!

 

[volfanbill]

That's more than double what Erin Andrews got.

Will be interesting to see which holds up better under possible appeals. Both had twists, Andrews with the Marriott exec dinner and Hulk with the condescending attitude of the gawker editor.

Hulk got even more than he sued Gawker for. I think that's telling.

Title IX lawsuit .......soon

Done

I'm going out on a limb and assuming you might not be able to swing the hunny mill. I'll be darned if I flaunt my prowess publicly just for you to file bankruptcy.

"Money!"

"Into the checkerboards!"

That's insane

I hope this kills Gawker and its subsidiaries. They're the lowest scum of "journalism."

 

[volfanbill]

he just got another $25 mil. 10 mil from the owner, 15 in punitive damages.

go Hulk

But is the gawker good for the money? Judgement sounds great but if they dont have money its a joke. For instance of what Erin Andrews was awarded she will get alot of hers but not all. The judgement part from the Hiltons one direct deposit will cover that. But the part of the judgement from the guy who did it he wont provide hardly anything of his half.

That's not really the point. Gawker likely won't survive this, and it sets a precedence for future "journalism."

And WWE will bring Hogan back to the family by the end of summer. If not by Wrestlemania.

go Hulk

LOL. He was banging his buddy's estranged wife and saying racist stuff on the video.

It's too bad Gawker couldn't lose without Hulk gaining.
