Hulk Hogan alleged that Gawker violated his privacy after publishing a secretly recorded video of the ex-pro wrestler having sex with the wife of his then-best friend, Bubba Clem. {Jury awarded $140 Millions}
Gawker said that "publishing of the video is protected by the First Amendment because it's related to a matter of public concern, meaning it was 'newsworthy.'' The company will appeal.
Gawker says a key witness told the FBI that Hogan "knew he was making a sex tape" and that Hogan had sent text messages that undermined his case. "Key evidence and the most important witness (Bubba Clem) were both improperly withheld from the jury,'' a statement.
Gawker has also claimed that Hogan initially filed the lawsuit to prevent the publication of another video that allegedly involves him using racist language, including the "N" word. World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) severed all ties with Hogan in the wake of that disclosure.
Too much excitement about one sexual act on tape and some want someone to pay. Whatever it is, no Money will exchange hands. Just a thought.
