>I just like watching Denton Squirm like a worm that he is which will soon turn to panic when he realizes Hulk ain't letting up
Denton wrote a piece called An Open Letter to Peter Thiel. Some of the points are fucking hilarious.
>The court cases will proceed as long as you fund them. And I am sure the war of headlines will continue. But, even if we put down weapons just for a brief truce, let us have a more constructive exchange.
>We can hold the discussion in person with a moderator of your choosing, in front of an audience, under the auspices of the Committee to Protect Journalists, or in a written discussion on some neutral platform such as Medium. Just tell me where and when.
Translation: No hurt gawker! Plz nomore, no clobbering gawker in court! I put down weapon yes?
Gawker does not drop it's weapon You put down your weapon yes? We go outside court yes? We go to my house instead yes?
>At the very least, it will improve public understanding of the interplay of media and power. Considering the amount spent on lawyers, $20 million between us at this point, there should be some public benefit.
Denton should've also added "there should be some benefit for the children." Because gawker is so considerate of the children, that it's former editor in chief would draw the line at releasing a sextape of a four year old. Brah.Vo.
>Is your goal to bankrupt, buy, or wound Gawker Media? If you were to own the company after a final judgment in the Hogan case, what would your editorial strategy be?
Does Denton not realize the possibility that Thiel does not want to get gawker in order to pilot it, but to crash it. With NO SURVIVORS!
>You say that Gawker is not a legitimate news source. Do you take the same view of the other properties—Gizmodo, Deadspin, Jezebel, Kotaku, Jalopnik and Lifehacker?
Does Denton think the rest of those properties are so beloved? Is he using them as shields to cower behind? Does Denton realize the possibility that oidunno, there are people that would love to see the rest of the properties mentioned also clobbered in court.
>When you say your aim is deterrence rather than revenge, whom do you aim to deter?
Can't be you Denton, since you seem to think you and gawker are god's gift to journalism.
