Did Hulk Hogan Neuter the First Amendment?
A new Netflix documentary considers the dangerous ramifications of <em>Bollea v. Gawker</em> for the free press.
The most memorable moment in Nobody Speak: Trials, a new documentary dropping on Netflix Friday, comes in the very first scene, when the former Gawker editor A.J. Daulerio is shown explaining to the camera that there’s a hold on his personal bank account. For $230 million. It’s a moment that the director, Brian Knappenberger, uses to convey the scale of the imbalance he perceives between a scrappy but impoverished press and an army of shadowy billionaires with endless pockets and a yen to muzzle the media.
