        1. we could always add it to that Christmas list of suggestions for Shy- it's not like he's read any of them yet, lol

  1. BWAHAHAHAHA!!! Poor Denton, maybe he should have thought about not publishing private shit just because it's salacious. While I don't give a fuck about Hulk Hogan, this is karmic payback for that hatchet job they did on that Conde Nast guy, not to mention the "we don't support the fappening, wink, wink" coverage of all those celebrity nudes

    1. |Interesting article in the LA Times.| There's a quote from AJ Duhlerio that just is incredibly arrogant and awful. That was probably what persuaded the jury right there. I have no love for Hulk Hogan, but honestly, Nick Denton has never seemed to grasp the difference between Rupert Murdock-style "journalism" and actual American Journalism, and what the First Amendment and media law in this country actually means.

      It's unfortunate, because he could do just as snarky stories as he seems to aim for without getting himself into legal trouble if he just made some basic shifts. Just look at what our Editrix does on the FP.

      But yeah, what you said, zip, totally payback for that idiotic Conde Nast smear job.

  2. I hope Drew Magary and the writers on Jezebel that I like will be OK, but I'm with zippy on this: payback is a bitch, Gawker!

      1. Obviously their work does not rise to the level of the Wonket. Maybe they should try banning comments.

        Done! When do I get my check?
