My issue is the Defendants.
Gawker media actively and knowingly invaded Hogan's privacy by publishing that video both to embarrass him (as their internal memoranda established) and to profit.
Gawker was the correct Defendant in this case.
In the Andrews case, I still don't believe the Hotel committed actionable misconduct. I think there's an argument, but I don't think it's terribly compelling. There's just no foreseeability there and thus no proximate cause.
Hogan went after the right guys; Andrews went after the deepest pockets. That's the only objection I have.
