Hogan Suing for $ 100 Million .....
Hulk Hogan is suing the gossip website Gawker for $100 million. Bollea claims his privacy was violated when the website released a video of him having sex with the wife of radio personality Bubba the Love Sponge Clem.
The video was recorded several years ago in Clem’s home. Gawker published a portion of the tape in 2012, and Bollea has been involved in a lawsuit against Gawker since then.
“It was an extortion of my client. It was somebody trying to shake him down on a tape that he didn’t consent to, that they published with knowledge that he hadn’t consented to it all of which and in every scenario which there’s one victim constantly and that’s Terry Bollea,” said Bollea Attorney Kenneth Turkel in court on Wednesday.
Gawker attorneys asked the judge to dismiss the case based on what they believe are lies that were told by Bollea.
