The final shot is Virgil reading Oddibe McDaniel's water bill and shaking his head sadly, before panning out and showing that Virgil is all alone in the world.

Virgil will ask for $25,000 for the shot, will settle for $250 and trans.

The best thing Deadspin ever did was exposing the Manti Te'o catfishing. Second best was Oddibe McDowell's water bill.

Military porn is a guilty pleasure of mine so I'll miss that too if it goes away, also I think Tyler Rogoway's actually a pretty decent writer. Hope he lands on his feet somewhere.

I don't care where it is though because I rarely read the comments.

Punitive damages for Gawker: $15M for the company, $10M for Denton, and $100k for Daulerio as apparently he's broke and they didn't want to give him community service.

At least one of them did want to give him community service but the judge told them it wasn't legal actually. Hulk's lawyers also straight up told the jury "we don't want punitive damages from him" so let this be a lesson to people who think its ok to be flippant during a deposition.

I hate Daulerio as much as anyone but it's pretty sad that Denton is a millionaire thanks to his empire of lovely sites and Daulerio is flat broke having done a large chunk of the legwork in making those sites lovely.

It's kind of ironic that the super progressive site is run by a tax-dodging millionaire who employs people at low salaries.

Then again I think Huffington Post is the same way.

yeah, it's not really news or anything, but I'm always impressed by the blatant juxtaposition between all the idealistic Silicon Valley jargon bullshit about changing media and whatever and the reality that the honchos are as rotten and exploitative as those you'll find anywhere. Not surprised, but impressed.

If he was sentenced to being leg dropped by Hogan, that would actually be a death sentence for Hogan.

Nick Denton personally penned a response to the Hogan verdict and his entire defense hinges on "He had it coming because he talked about his alleged sex life in public."
