>Hulk Hogan's attempted take down of the website Gawker over a secretly recorded sex tape began on Monday as lawyers asked a Florida jury to weigh privacy rights against public interest in a celebrity.
>A lawyer for the former professional wrestler said the online gossip site's editors were motivated by power and brand promotion and intended to harm Hogan when they posted an excerpt of a video showing him engaged in an intimate sex act.
>"They have essentially replaced sticks and stones with clicks and phones," lawyer Shane Vogt said during his opening statement, noting that 2.5 million people had viewed a clip of the sex-tape over six months.
>Hogan, 62, is seeking $100 million in damages from Gawker for posting the nearly two-minute video of him having consensual sex with the wife of his then-best friend, radio shock jock Bubba the Love Sponge.
>Lawyers for the longtime champion of World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and reality TV star say he had a right to expect privacy in a private bedroom and the video was filmed without his knowledge.
>Gawker argues that its 2012 post is protected speech under the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, and contends it was reporting on a celebrity who publicly discussed his sex life.

So every cloud does have a silver lining after all.

Yes fucking your bff`s wife is a dick move, but since she was in on it it clearly shows that she is a real cunt.
a dick and a cunt met at the bar, and hopefully Gawker burned to the ground.

>>27355
So he has a teeny weeny baby penis?

>>27355
>having consensual sex
>consensual
WITH A THOUSAND DEMONS, WHY THE CLARIFICATION? HOW IS THIS A THING? How did things get so twisted that clarifying when sex is consensual is the norm
i want to burn the US to the ground, fucking nutjobs

I remember hulk saying that he didnt even care about the report itself, he just wanted the video taken down
so is posting a video of two people (who you arent involved with) having sex in a private place "protected speech"?
>>
>>27519
Hulk we wanna pay you for a sex tape and use it to gain piblicity. But instead just sue us, it will go to court and there will be extra media coverage for us to use in repromotion of your video. We will lose the suit and pay you millions!!! If not we can just pay you hush hush after...

>>27601
Not a cuckold, a swinger. It's different.

A Florida jury on Friday awarded Hulk Hogan $115 million with the possibility of more after finding the Gawker website violated his privacy by publishing a sex tape of the celebrity wrestler.

$115m (plus possible punitive damages on top of that) is LITERALLY enough to bankrupts Gawker. Do you care now? Jezebel is fucking DONE
