Oh nevermind. Well, a sex tape is private property. Invasion of privacy isn't protected by the first amendment.

Because the Hulk ran wild on them.

Did you realize we have ID's on this board?
Embarrassing desu.
It did protect them, that's why they didn't go to jail.
Doesn't stop a jury finding you guilty in a civil suit regarding damages caused by the act, if those damages are measurable and proven, which is what Hogan's lawyers did prove.
invasion of privacy

This.
Hulk Hogan is a public persona while Terry Gene Bollea is a real person.
The article was not considered newsworthy. If it had been, then they would of probably won.
He was filmed without his consent.
They defied a direct court order to take it down.
Most of all, Hogan's lawyers painted Gawker in an EXTREMELY bad light. Especially with the child pornography comments that one of the editor's made in his deposition.

The protection for freedom of the press only means that you have freedom to print whatever you want BUT, AFTER you print you are liable to be punished under certain scenarios (such as libel). If a court knew GAWKER had the tape, they could not order them not to publish it. BUT, the second they, they could be charged for damages. Its called NO PRIOR RESTRAINT

These sjw fucks talk about how evil the fappening an such is, but when it comes to a guy in a sex tape, they don't give a shit.
Fuck these faggots. They got what they jave coming, I hope this next judgement against them makes them pay even more money. What a good verdict this is. Damn.
