Gawker.com gave Joe Francis the illustrious and much-deserved (in my humble little opinion) ‘Douche of The Decade’ title last week and apparently Joe is going to sue them for the $10 Million dollars he lost by Gawker hurting his *cough* reputation by calling him a rapist (which they have since corrected to alleged rapist):

“You messed with the wrong guy. No one makes up lies about me and gets away with it,”  ”I lost a $10 million deal as a direct result of you calling me ‘a rapist.’ You will be paying me every dime of that back and more! Are you mentally retarded? Do your research first. I am coming after you harder than I ever went after anyone. I am going to wipe you off the grid!!!! YOU ARE DONE! I will take everything you have. You, Nick Denton, are truly the douche of the decade. Merry Xmas IDIOT!!!

Nick Denton is Gawker’s founder for those who don’t know.  Gawker has responded with a new post entitled Sore Douche.  Both articles are a great read!

I personally want to point out that Joe’s use of ‘your’ in the title of his email is incorrect.  It’s a common mistake people make.  It should be ‘you’re‘.  He he he.

Apparently Gawker has not been served yet.
