6/4/2023 0 Comments Conspiracy by Ryan HolidayThis post would be the casus belli for a meticulously plotted conspiracy that would end nearly a decade later with a $140 million dollar judgment against Gawker, its bankruptcy and with Nick Denton, Gawker's CEO and founder, out of a job. Thiel's sexuality had been known to close friends and family, but he didn't consider himself a public figure, and believed the information was private. In 2007, a short blogpost on Valleywag, the Silicon Valley-vertical of Gawker Media, outed PayPal founder and billionaire investor Peter Thiel as gay. A stunning story about how power works in the modern age-the book the New York Times called "one helluva page-turner" and The Sunday Times of London celebrated as "riveting.an astonishing modern media conspiracy that is a fantastic read." Pick up the book everyone is talking about.
