Sure, let&#x27;s blame Peter Thiel (how&#x27;s the fact that he&#x27;s a Trump supporter relevant here?), Hulk Hogan, and all the other people who dared to sue Gawker media. Let&#x27;s leave out the fact that most of those people have been harmed, violated, slighted etc. in the name of... what? What has outing a gay person achieve? What is sharing someone&#x27;s private video add to the world?<p>&quot;It is a fitting conclusion to this experiment in what happens when you let journalists say what they really think.&quot; - You dare compare yourself to people who risk their freedom, reputation and their very lives, to expose the real evil in the world? You are giving true journalists everywhere a bad name, sir.<p>Goodbye, and good riddance.
