#Gawker sued trial#
Thomas is only asking for $74,000, a modest sum in comparison to the $140 million that Hogan won from Gawker after a lengthy privacy invasion trial earlier this month.Ĭharlie Nash is a frequent contributor to Breitbart Tech and former editor of the Squid Magazine. The public comments on the article included one from her co-worker at Yahoo just three days after, who debated the authenticity of the claims, demonstrating that the news spread around her former office pretty fast after Gawker published the piece. Really, couldn’t Yahoo could use more synergies like this?” Moore could let his employees know when they’ve become useless to him, and then Thomas could push them out ever so delicately. Imagine the efficiency of such an arrangement. “In any event, Thomas never reported to Moore,” the article continued. The 140 million judgment that his lawyers secured for Hulk Hogan against Gawker Media, sending the company into a bankruptcy from which its flagship site would not emerge, was a matter of proving. ‘We never dated while we worked together, period,’ he said.” wrote Nicholas Carlson in the piece published December 2007 under the title “He pushes them out, she does the paperwork”. “Thomas left Yahoo earlier this year when the relationship heated up, according to a source. Thomas claims that this speculation is incorrect and that her departure from the company was for unrelated reasons while she began a romance with Moore after leaving her position at Yahoo. Gawker speculated in their 2007 article that the reason Thomas had left her job in human resources at Yahoo was because of an office romance between her and the then-head of Yahoo’s internal media group, Steve Moore. In her lawsuit, Thomas claims Gawker to be “a limited liability company engaged in the the business of creating, distributing and publishing nationally and internationally false and libelous comments concerning the private lives of people,” a weighty claim against the controversial blogging network, but certainly not the first.Īfter Gawker shared the leaked script for Quentin Tarantino’s then-upcoming film The Hateful Eight, Tarantino launched his own lawsuit during which he described Gawker Media of making “a business of predatory journalism, violating people’s rights to make a buck,” a similar description to Thomas in her lawsuit. Teresa Thomas claims that a 2007 Gawker gossip column which speculated she was dating her boss at Yahoo caused her to be at a loss both professionally and personally in her life since. Gawker isn’t just one of the most consequential lawsuits in the history of modern American media.
