If I see any actual journalists being sued in vexatious lawsuits, I have no doubt that I'll feel the urge to defend them. Sorry, that doesn't include gossip rags and muckrakers. Exposing the private sexual activities of Hulk Hogan and any parties he has intercourse with is not journalism and does not implicate freedom of press as far as I am concerned. Why not also publish the private nude photos of "The Fappening" under the guise of "reporting" that those actresses happen to be the types of people who take nude photos of themselves? Is that too journalism?
The people associated with these organizations have a history of going after people they don't like, and using the power of media to attack them. Yet now we're supposed to side with them when the people they've attacked strike back using the power of the courts?
I respectfully decline to sympathize with them.
