They have too much hubris to learn from their mistakes.
"hurr publishing CP is okay as long as they're older than 4"
"w-wait it was just a prank bro!"
Nobody needs fear a legal battle with Gawker. Fucking Winston Payne could beat them in court.

The law was in their favor & they still blew it.
>Hogan files a privacy tort action
>Gawker has to overcome by showing an overriding public interest
>Gawker asserts that its interest is the freedom of the press guaranteed by the first amendment, specifically, the freedom to determine what is "newsworthy"
>Hogan's attorney knows that the press usually wins these cases, but he no doubt quickly discovered that Gawker is full of the scum of the earth, from radical feminists, to belligerent SJW ideologues, to every other kind of irredeemable asshole with no journalistic integrity or iota of professionalism
>Hogan's attorney therefore focuses the defense around showing what a bunch of assholes Gawker are in order to make them overlook the legal argument and want to punish these horrible people to the full extent of the law
>It works and Hogan gets astronomical damages
