Money alone doesn't win a lawsuit. The reporter who wrote this probably doesn't agree with the court's decision, but that decision wasn't written by Thiel or Silicon Valley. Also, people have crowd-funded legal fees previously. That isn't new. That Thiel chose to fund a lawsuit against a publication that outed him as gay doesn't seem very surprising or devious. They still had to convince the court they had a claim in this case.
