> false claims???

Explain the false part please.

“I saw Gawker pioneer a unique and incredibly damaging way of getting attention by bullying people even when there was no connection with the public interest. . . . I thought it was worth fighting back.” - Peter Thiel

Peter Thiel was not hiding his sexual orientation, but Gwaker made it look like so.
