Peter Thiel Could End Up Owning Gawker (pagesix.com)
An anonymous reader writes: Gawker's assets are now up for sale, and Page Six reports that they could be sold to a Hollywood movie studio which is "seriously interested" in adapting the site's stories into movies or TV shows -- and is also looking into filming the story of Gawker itself. Another interested buyer is described as a "group of hard-core Gawker fans" who are currently performing their own due diligence. But the bankruptcy manager for Gawker "has not ruled out the possibility" of selling the site to Peter Thiel. Also up for sale are "potential legal claims" Gawker may have against Peter Thiel, according to the Wall Street Journal.
That pretty well covers it.
He's FAR scummier than Gawker ever dreamed of being.
And gay men who donate to Rethuglicans and Nazis SHOULD be outed.
They MUST be outed.
To my knowledge, Breitbart has never done anything comparable to hosting a nude video despite requests from the subject, and a judge, to take it down, like Gawker. Or, for that matter, comparable to posting an article saying that white males should lose the right to vote, like the Huffington Post.
There are far-right news platforms as bad as Gawker et al., but they don't include Breitbart: they're things like the Daily Stormer, which peddle the same sort of hatred as the far left.
