Heather Clem, Hulk Hogan Tape Claims by Gawker Prompt Legal Threat

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Hulk Hogan and Heather Clem claims by Gawker prompted swift legal action Thursday. Hulk Hogan and Heather Clem (photos below) have yet to confirm to news that they are the male and female depicted in the video leaked online on Gawker.com. But Hulk Hogan is threatening to sue Gawker if the video is not removed. Since tape scandals erupted more than a decade ago across Hollywood, celebrities have confronted each case quick differently. Often, their attorneys refuse to comment about the tape. A comment for many can been seen as an admission that their client is depicted in the tape. In fact, much of the initial fascination with tape scandals is identifying the subjects. Hence, when an attorney comes out denouncing the tape as invasions of his client’s privacy, the presumption is that the client is depicted in the video.
