Fifty Years of the Deep State

In 2014, Gawker published three documents by Mark Gorton, under the title 'The Astounding Conspiracy Theories of Wall Street Genius Mark Gorton'

Maxwell's Black Book

In 2015 it published parts of Ghislaine Maxwell/Jeffry Epstein' 97-page book, containing the names and contact details of almost 2,000 people including world leaders, celebrities and businessmen, with some redactions. This was sealed in 2021 by the US judge who tried Ghislaine Maxwell.[2]

Closure

The site became inactive on 22nd August, 2016. Tom Scocca wrote that "a lie with a billion dollars behind it is stronger than the truth. Peter Thiel has shut down Gawker.com."[3] Not having grounds to sue for the unfavorable coverage of himself, Thiel instead encouraged and helped a proxy to win a privacy lawsuit claim of $140 million.[4]
