fin<\/em><\/a>: <\/em>Gawker files for bankruptcy, after jobbing to Hulk Hogan<\/span><\/p>\n It\u2019s funny, since this whole debacle began, and the ensuing result of Hulk Hogan doing what Hulk Hogan does best, triumphing over evil, I stated that I don\u2019t think I could ever be disappointed about any news in relation to this subject.\u00a0 But I have to say that I was wrong about that, because I can\u2019t help but feel a modicum of disappointment to hear that the storyline, is actually coming to its conclusion, with Gawker basically throwing in the towel and raising with white flag.<\/span><\/p>\n Honestly, I\u2019d have preferred to read about at least four more courtroom battles between the Peter Thiel-powered Hulk Hogan and Gawker lawyers, and read about repeated the jobbing that would inevitably have ensued.\u00a0 It\u2019s not really a surprise, given the fact that money owed to Hulk Hogan was well beyond what was in Gawker\u2019s coffers, but stories like this always have a tendency to drag out longer than they should; maybe they did, and I was just too giddy with enjoyment at seeing a slimy news rag get their comeuppance that it all just felt like a ride ending too soon?<\/span><\/p>\n Either way, I\u2019m not surprised to see that this is happening, and the notion that Gawker thinks they will be absolved of paying Hulk Hogan the $140 million dollars they owe him.\u00a0 Sure, a lot of it will be wiped out I imagine, but I also imagine that when Gawker inevitably sells, the Hulkster is going to get something for his troubles still; I know bankruptcy is often seen as something of a shrewd strategic maneuver to the 1%, but I\u2019d like to know that Hulkamania will be getting something from his victory over Gawker.<\/span><\/p>\n Anyway, as fun as the ride was, I\u2019m sad to see that it\u2019s actually coming to a close.\u00a0 The aftermath of the trial was pretty entertaining, with the reveal of Peter Thiel\u2019s involvement and agenda, but the end result really isn\u2019t that surprising to me.\u00a0 Gawker goes belly-up, Hogan doesn\u2019t get all the money he\u2019s owed, and someone will inevitably buy Gawker\u2019s remains, because there\u2019s still some value in their name and notoriety itself.<\/span><\/p>\n Hopefully, the rest of the world will remember now that even at his old age, nobody should fuck with Hulkamania.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" fin: Gawker files for bankruptcy, after jobbing to Hulk Hogan It\u2019s funny, since this whole debacle began, and the ensuing result of Hulk Hogan doing what Hulk Hogan does best, triumphing over evil, I stated that I don\u2019t think I could ever be disappointed about any news in relation to this subject.\u00a0 But I have … Continue reading This might actually be the end<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[179,52,156],"class_list":["post-42420","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-brog","tag-hulkamania","tag-owned","tag-social-media"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42420","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=42420"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42420\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":42422,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42420\/revisions\/42422"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=42420"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=42420"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=42420"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
