Netflix acquires worldwide rights for Hogan/Gawker documentary

The Hollywood Reporter has a story about streaming giant Netflix purchasing the worldwide rights for the documentary Nobody Speak: Hulk Hogan, Gawker, and Trials of a Free Press.

The documentary chronicles the court case and fallout of the legal battle between Hogan and Gawker that took place last year.
