![comments :Ban on Gawker Links v (self, defaultmods) 18 |submitted 10 hours ago by kann an aut search reddit You may have seen recently that Violentacrez deleted his account due to blackmail threats from this post was submitted on 10 Oct 2012 Adrian Chen over at Gawker. If you haven't seen it, there is more information here. Chen was fishing around reddit for VA's personal information and planning to publish a story with all of his info. As a mod who often makes controversial decisions, I am extremely concerned about the precedent that this would set. It would basically legitimize personal attacks against moderators. shortlink: http: //redd. it/119oyt I would like to restrict all posts from gawker (and affiliated sites) in hopes of persuading them to not to resort to such despicable tactics here is a list of their submissions to Reddit points (90% like it) 20 up votes 2 down votes http://www.reddit.com/domain/jezebel.com/new/121 http://www.reddit.com/domain/jalopnik.com/new/13] http://www.reddit.com/domain/kotaku.com/new/(41 http://www.reddit.com/domain/gizmodo.com/new/同 http://www.reddit.com/domain/gawker.com/new/l6] http://www.reddit.com/domain/lifehacker.com/new/171 http://www.reddit.com/domain/deadspin.com/new/l8] http://www.reddit.com/domain/io9.com/new/(91 If you would like to enlist your subreddit's help with this issue, please discuss it with your fellow moderators.

![Could Hulk Hogan destroy Gawker? 9:33 a.m.ET Peter Sterne at Capital New York reports that the popular website Gawker could be undone by none other than former wrestler Hulk Hogan, who is suing the company for $100 million for publishing portions of a 2006 sex tape featuring Hogan having sex with Heather Clem, wife Ronald Martinez Cetty Images of a shock jock named Bubba the Love Sponge Clem. The case goes to trial in a Florida court on July 6, and things could get existential for Gawker, according to Sterne: A loss, and an award of even a fraction of the $100 million Hogan's attorneys are seeking, could empty the company's coffers, forcing [Gawker Media CEO Nick] Denton to either sell the company outright or to hand much of its equity over to deep-pocketed investors Capital New York] The case, legally speaking, centers on whether the video is of "public concern." But it may simply boil down to whether a jury drawn from Hogan's hometown in Florida will side with Hogan or a distant New York media conglomerate. "There's a very real possibility that Gawker will lose the jury trial," Sterne writes](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/list/000/977/396/0d0.png "Hulk Hogan sueing Gawker for $100 million")
