Good. Gawker's behavior is disgusting. The former editor's deposition, with its "jokes" about four year old children, revealed the ugly mindset behind the scenes. Gawker's a giant trash monster trying to squeeze into a tiny mask labeled 'journalism'. And the worst part is, some of the sites in the Gawker family are actually pretty decent -- io9 runs a good story from time to time. It's just their parent company is so goddamned horrid, reading one of their articles feels like I'm directly contributing to the national Kick Sleeping Kittens Foundation.
