am I the only one that doubts that Gawker would refuse to publish an underage sex tape on ethical (as opposed to legal) grounds

ive never defended him about anything! wtf is wrong with you guys

you have this psychic need for someone to beat up on since obviously no gawker employees are posting in this thread so you jump on me when i say something that isn't 100% self righteous moralizing about how gawker is repulsive, the only acceptable tone or content allowed in this thread is literally patting ourselves on the back for recognizing that gawker is 'vermin'

fwiw I am aware that you were not defending Daulerio

xp i cgaf about the crimes of gawker media but if you don't get why you are consistently being scoffed at itt i don't know what to tell you
― uncle tenderlegdrop (jim in glasgow), Friday, 11 March 2016 19:06 (ten years ago)
I don't think anyone's literally patting themselves on the back for recognising something self-evident, more figuratively throwing pies at the village idiot

I'd rather that than "What's up with the spider on your neck?"

Is that half a spider on yr neck

Hamilton Nolan is improving, mostly by moving on over to talk about labor issues and oatmeal preparation
I think this actually could have been turned into a decent piece, though - why didn't anybody unpack why this is:

Yeah, it'll be appealed, and then there's this clutch of documentation supposedly being unsealed. So we'll see how it goes.

"Owner Hulk Hogan"
I think ultimately the blame must be shared between the lawyer who didn't tell gawker not to publish a hulk hogan sex tape and the lawyer who didn't tell hulk hogan not to sue gawker
― Rainer Weirder Faßbooker (wins), Friday, 18 March 2016 23:26 (ten years ago)
Bad for the free press, but much worse for people that post sex tapes against the wishes of the unknowing participant.
