Is it over?

>Hulk Hogan owns Jezebel

BASED

In a just world they would all never get any writing job ever again but here in reality this is just exploding one of these spider clusters.
They are all going to scurry to other publications all over the place.
The amount of shit clickbait is only going to increase.

Gawker is looking for a buyer atm, so yeah.
Its OGRE

Nah gawker had been struggling already and restored to clickbate which is proving not profitable. No one's going to hire them

How did they get hired in the first place?

Nope, this is the initial appeal in front of the same judge of the trial I think. There will be further appeals in front of other judges. Hope you all enjoy more months of tedious legal proceedings.

It's just going to go to appeals court.

Is there any chance we get anything as funny as these autists making pedophilia jokes in a court room?

u cant appeal forever, they're gonna lose.

gawker can go to hell, fucking trash toxic.

Unless someone is going to kill buzzfeed and polygon and all the other shit this really wont change anything.

Not quite yet. They're still trying for an appeal, and they're looking for buyers.

It's possible the appeal will fail, but any buyers will probably only want/use certain sections of the company. So if bought out, expect things like Kotaku or Gizmodo, for example, to still be around in some way. Could be in a way that it's still acting as they are now, or it could be gutted out just so a company can use its name/site to funnel clicks elsewhere (which is fairly possible given how Gawker sites are increasingly being looked down upon).

Not likely in court, I imagine they've learned not to do that. But the circus surrounding the whole thing, absolutely. Go read the meltdown Denton wrote to Peter Thiel. That's some shit.

>Sup Forums are against gawker for posting hogans sex tape
> Sup Forums is totally fine with people leaking jlaw nudes

thanks bby ;^*

I think Sup Forums just hates gawker

AJ Daulerio was good on Deadspin, how did he end up being so awful when he moved to Gawker?

Basically, Peter Thiel is a literal fag who got mad Gawker outed him.

Gawker actually didn't know Thiel was in the closet because he was such a huge fag, and everybody fucking knew already.

How can these fucking assholes take the moral high ground on this?
They outed him.

They decided to reveal this guy's sexuality. whether or not gay people should be accepted in the open and whether or not it worked out fine for him they are fucking scumbags.

They act like they did him a favor and he is completely unreasonable wanting revenge.

I am baffled.

Turns out, giving a rabid sports gossip muckraker more authority and power doesn't work out well.

Holy shit these people get money for this shit?

That is literally professional shitposting.
Especially that list at the end could've just been a Sup Forums post.

>I understand that you give codenames from Tolkien for all your projects. What’s this one? (Let me guess: Mordor.)

Don't you think a gay guy who donates to a bunch of conservative causes that actively work against gay right should be outed?

>gawker was ok with posting Hogan's tape
>gawker called the jlaw leak, rape

It never ends unless you quit

youtube.com/watch?v=nnhAS8ifF-g

Definitely not.

>Sup Forums are against gawker for posting hogans sex tape
Nigger the difference is the fucking COURT ORDERED GAWKER to remove tape from their site and they went "lel no fuk u".

No? Why would you think he should be?

Outing someone under the guise of "journalism" is trashy as shit, no matter what bullshit justification you dig up

And then to go on and post the Hulksters sextape and then REFUSE to take it down? Gawker had it coming

Did he though? I'm not well acquainted with Thiel's political contributions, but he seemed one of those libertarians who become suddenly quiet as soon as social issues start coming up.

NOW COME AT ME, HOGAN

I CHALLENGE...YOU!

>check out gawker
>one of the articles is just a picture of trump with nothing really around it but people commenting on it

This is not news or journalism.
What the fuck is this?

There are a million of "He looks like X" "hey that is an insult to X" posts
It feels like the worst social media platform ever.

((((Ashley Feinberg))))

Good.

dont forget that abysmal horse shit ashton kutcher launched

It was reported yesterday they're looking to sell the entire company

Huckster fucked their shit up good, brother

Fuck off pol reeeeeeeeee

Tv doesn't care about the sex tape. It's the hypocrisy of Gawker using it when they condemned people uploading the Jlaw leak. That, and Gawker is trash journalism that needs to be taken down a notch.

>Filed to: WAKE UP

>Filed to: [CAN'T WAKE UP]

>"This will Be The End Of Trump’s Campaign" says increasingly nervous Gawker employee for hundreds time this year

They're a gossip site that sometimes writes "real" journalism. This is entirely their goddamn problem. They will claim to be one or the other when they get into trouble. They're downfall was always inevitable. It's just its coming from Hulk Hogan of all people.

>can you write 2500 words a week about some shit?
>you're hired.

Gawker's hypocrisy and the other sites attached under the media empire need to be taken down. Clickbait and other hypocritical shit they pulled should not be supported.

Same reason you see liberal media outlets condemning the nude leaks yet their biggest pieces are nip slips and critiquing what women wear? Hypocrisy in its shittest form.

>ywn have to list "Gawker Media" as past work experience on your resume.

Thank fuck.

Every opinionated "journalist" always started out as a sports writer. It's weird.

that already happened months ago

>Feinberg

hopefully

Hogan was filmed without his consent

JLaw took nude photos of herself and uploaded them online like the dumb slut she is

>jews don't want Trump aka Goy of The Year

I really should've cropped out the name.

I didn't mean to make a Sup Forumspost
Just thought the article was funny and the "Filled to" was funny.

>Someone buys Kotaku, and actually restructures it into a good website that isn't dependent on clickbait bullshit.

I would be cool with this scenario.

That's not surprising. Sports writing literally thrives on hot takes.

>try to pull the holocaust card
>gets reckd so hard they have sell the company
poetic justice?

>everyone gives trump shit
>expects people not to fell sorry for him and see him as an underdog

they were both released without consent but hogan tape was done for monetary reasons, the other was let into the wild and it took off for obvious reasons.

The people that tried to make money off the nude leaks got ass fucked as well. It always comes down to money.

2016: The year we take everything back.

i bet you would fucking nerd

Someone post his response when he was asked, under oath, who Hulk Hogan was

>Gets mad at Hogan for taking a gay dudes money to fund the case
>Glosses over the fact he himself took a huge cash infusion from a billionaire Russian Oligarch to fund his defense.

Gawker a shit.

"We" didn't do shit.
The only reason anything happened here is because they were beyond retarded.

Not even uploading the sex tape was the proble.
They should've JUST removed when they were asked by a judge.
Literally nothing would've come out of this

I don't think anyone else will be as retarded.

>>Glosses over the fact he himself took a huge cash infusion from a billionaire Russian Oligarch to fund his defense.

THE COMMUNISTS ARE AT IT AGAIN

It's will be bought by russian oligarch Viktor Vekselberg, so will be probably another propaganda network as russian today etc.

Funny enough that is probably a step up.
IF trump gets elected they wont even have to change their articles at all.

>they were both released without consent but hogan tape was done for monetary reasons

Are you saying he was trying to make money off the tapes?
