If someone secretly recorded you having consensual sex and sold me the footage, you think I have a right to publish that. That's ridiculous. Gawker got what they deserved.

They didn't pay for it--someone (probably Bubba the Love Sponge) anonymously sent them the footage. He was legally able to record his own home.
Florida is a two-party consent state. Everyone featured in a recording not happening in public must consent to being recorded. Both Hogan and Heather claim they didn't know.
Ok, well same thing. Hogan was invited over to have sex with Bubba's wife and Bubba secretly filmed it and sent it to a media company.
are you a world renowned celebrity who goes on radio shows on a near weekly basis to brag about your sexual exploits and genital size to millions of people?
No. Who are you referring to? How is that relevant?
Have you heard Hulk Hogan speaking to Bubba the Love Sponge on radio It is informative to the case
I haven't. I doubt he gave consent to be recorded and then have that video distributed. So I don't see how it's relevant.
