Gawker Media, the self-proclaimed hero of the Rob Ford cocaine video saga, has been hit with a $115 million award in favor of wrestling showman Hulk Hogan. Gawker published, and refused to take down, a sex video of Hogan with a friend’s wife. The video was taken in a private home with no one else around, according to Hogan. The award is a stunning decision from the Florida court which some say may put Gawker out of business. For his part, publisher Nick Denton says he will win on appeal because what he called “the most important witness” was not permitted to testify.
