A representative for Thiel did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Thiel is competing with other bidders to acquire Gawker domain names and nearly 200,000 archived articles, according to Reuters. Don't worry, other Gawker assets, like Deadspin and Jezebel, were already sold to Univision Holdings Inc. back in 2016.

It should be noted that Thiel is currently on the board of Facebook, a company with an absurd amount of influence over what media the world consumes. So, overall, not a great day for the press.
