Round one in the Hulk Hogan/Gakwer sex tape trial goes to the wrestler: A Florida jury found decisively in his favor, and says the Web site owes him at least $115 million in damages.
The jury will likely increase the award next week, when it plans to announce punitive damages in the case, which stems from Gawker’s 2012 publication of an excerpt of a sex tape featuring Hogan.
This is the worst-case scenario that Gawker Media owner Nick Denton had sketched out last summer, when the case was first supposed to go to trial.
Denton and his legal team ave said, over and over, that they assumed they would lose the first round of the privacy case, and would then have to appeal it. But they were hoping that damages would be much less than the $100 million that Terry Bollea – the wrestler who performs as Hogan – was seeking.
The prospect of a giant award was one of the reasons Denton sold a stake in his company to Columbus Nova Technology Partners earlier this year — the first time he has ever taken outside investment. [Reply]
Gawker, and more specifically AJ Daulerio, absolutely deserved this.
Daulerio's deposition perfectly encapsulated what a smug fuckstain that guy is. They probably should've been shut down a year or so ago when they outed the poor bastard from Conde Nast.
They're mean spirited and as biased as it comes. They'd have sat on that tape if it wasn't an opportunity to make fun of someone a pack of eastern elitist shitheads look down on. They got a chance to knock the trailer park crowd down a peg or two and they'll take it every time.
Fuck Gawker, fuck Daulerio and good for the jury for doing what's right here. If there's truly a right to privacy (funny enough, I consider that arguable), then it was violated here. [Reply]

Do you think there is a good chance that this actually holds up on appeal? [Reply]

Florida is weird when it comes to appeals. Gawker would have to front $50 million into escrow or else hogan can collect the damages before appeal. Double edged sword. Gawker is screwed either way. good fuck them. [Reply]
