Extracts from the lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles, said: «Rather
than merely publishing a news
story reporting that
Plaintiff's screenplay may have been circulating in Hollywood without his permission, Gawker Media crossed the journalistic line by promoting itself to the public as the first source to read the entire Screenplay illegally.»
By the way. I checked the
Plaintiff (BidMyCrib.com) using Google. They have many good reviews, and an «A» rating with the Better Business Bureau. Since 2007
Plaintiff has only had 4 complaints. All 4 complaints appear to have occurred after their relationship with Defendant, so maybe there is a lot more to this
story than what you're reporting. I also checked to see if they have had any type of lawsuits against them; I found no lawsuits against
Plaintiff (BidMyCrib LLC or BidMyCrib.com).
