Gawker president: ‘More likely than not’ we’ll lose Hogan sex tape case

Posted on October 28, 2015June 26, 2025 by Dissent

Peter Sterne reports:

Gawker Media president and general counsel Heather Dietrick thinks that it is “more likely than not” that a jury will find in favor of professional wrestler Hulk Hogan — but also that they’ll award him significantly less than the $100 million he’s seeking.

“It’s probably difficult to win the case entirely, outright, knowing the jury that we’re facing, but it’s possible. More likely than not, we end up with a really small judgment that we can easily carry and we appeal that,” Dietrick said during a Gawker staff meeting held on Thursday.
