Hulk Hogan's $140 Million Win In Court Threatens To Put Gawker Out Of Business

In an interview with The Post, the former wrestler shares that his stare down with Gawker publisher Nick Denton was what scared him the most. Nick Denton and former editor A.J. Daulerio have been named as the defendants in the wrestler's lawsuit.
Per reports, A.J. Daulerio thought that publishing the edited sex tape would help the website’s traffic. During cross-examination, the former editor admitted that the tape was not news-worthy at all.
The sex tape was more than 30 minutes and Gawker released a trimmed down version that lasted for only a minute and 40 seconds. Also, only nine seconds showed the actual sex between Hulk Hogan and the wife of his then-best friend radio "shock jock" Bubba the Love Sponge.

In his latest interview, Hulk Hogan accused Nick Denton of “buccaneering young stud A.J. (Daulerio).” He also noted how the former editor doesn’t realize how wrong he was for posting the sex tape.
Originally, the wrestler wanted $100 million but was awarded more, summing it up to $140 million. Hulk Hogan said in his latest interview that the company actually offered him a large amount of money to settle but he wanted to stand and fight.

Further reports also say that if Gawker can’t convince the lower court to reduce the charges, the company would be forced to close down. Currently, the online publishing company runs two other websites, namely Gizmondo.com and Jezebel.com.

He was first diagnosed with liposarcoma in 2014 while running for a reelection which caused him to drop out of the race. Instead, he ran for councilor in Ward 2 Etobicoke North, winning it by a landslide. Ford declared he was cancer free in September but was hospitalized again in October after two new tumors had been found in his bladder.
Rob Ford gained popularity among the masses for his unpretentious leadership style. However, he repeatedly found himself in numerous scandals involving drugs, threats of violence and alcohol. After a video showing Ford smoking crack cocaine in his office surfaced in 2014, the former Toronto mayor faced his addiction and said he was entering rehab. Video footage and photographs showing Ford intoxicated in public also emerged.
Despite the scandals about him, Rob Ford was loved by many. Thousands of supporters have shared their prayers for his recovery on a website set up by his family during his battle with cancer.
Toronto mayor John Tory paid tribute to the late politician saying, “His time in City Hall included moments of kindness, of generosity to his council colleagues and real efforts to do what he thought was best for Toronto.”

The O.C. actress, Mischa Barton, did not impress the judges of Dancing with the Stars Season 22 with her tango on Monday.

Barton hit the dance floor with her dance partner, Artem Chigvintsev, for the first time, as the TV show premiered with a new set of celebrity performers. The 30-year-old actress had faced depression, DUI, and weight problems in the past. Her DWTS stint marks her comeback to showbiz but her performance did not leave a good impression on the judges. Judge Len Goodman, who came back to the show after leaving season 21, compared Mischa Barton’s dance moves to “walking.”

“It’s not in my nature to be nasty, but that wasn’t a dance, that was walking,” Goodman said of her number. He told Barton that she lacked “attack, flair, fire” in her tango. Barton was one of the three contestants who got the lowest scores with 16 points from the three judges.
The O.C. actress expressed her disappointment over Goodman’s “harsh” remarks but was relieved that it was over. “I was more annoyed with stuff off the top, the actor-y [stuff],” Barton said to EW. “I don’t see all this stuff that they see all the time.”
“The thing is, when someone comes into a competition like this, it’s quite hard to commit in general, and then to come out for the first time and perform live, doing something you’ve never done before, I feel like there should be more encouragement,” Chigvintsev said, defending Mischa Barton.

Marla Maples, Donald Trump’s ex-wife, and deaf America’s Next Top Model winner Nyle Dimarco stole the show with their impressive dance numbers. Dimarco and partner Peta Murgatroyd got tons of praise for their excellent team effort. Fox News’s Geraldo Rivera, 72, who joked he is “the only Puerto Rican who can’t dance” got the lowest score of the night.
