This Gawker drama has had many episodes: a story about the world’s most famous wrestler, which resulted in a $140m judgment in a Florida court; some other tabloid stories which got the site into other trouble; and the revelation that a Silicon Valley billionaire had been secretly backing lawsuits against the company. There have been many words written; for the animated highlights, you can watch this video series from Taiwanese Animators.
