Univision, which bought Gawker Media for $135 million in a government-ordered auction, is shutting down Gawker.com, the company's flagship site, founder Nick Denton told staffers on Thursday. Gawker.com will shutter next week.

Univision will still maintain Gawker's other properties, like Gizmodo, Lifehacker, Jezebel, Deadspin, and so on.

Gawker.com began as a site mostly focused on New York media gossip, but it has evolved over the years and recently pivoted to politics around the upcoming election.

It is also the site that has been the focal point of Gawker Media's recent legal troubles, particularly the $140 million verdict won by Hulk Hogan.

This saddens me so...

This just makes me so happy. You can't just film someone having sex and go away like nothing had ever happen

Good. Gawker and Jezebel are such hypocritical trash sites.
