    Wow, that is seriously fucked up. What kind of escort screws with his clients like that? Aren’t escorts supposed to be discreet? Boohoo. Your client wont help you with you Hud complaint so you’re going to blackmail him and ruin his life. Asshole. I don’t blame you for not wanting to reveal your identity. I suspect that karma will get you. This just made me sad. Fuck you and your HUD complaint.

      Actually, the same recently happened [NSFW] with the billionaire founder of MagicJack.

      The escort got greedy and ended up fucking himself BIG TIME.

      They should the escorts name too. If he's a pornstar he's probably famous to be asking $2,500. His name will come out eventually too.

    Well, that’s the end of SOMEBODY’s lucrative escort career. “Hi, I’ll be a clingy, high-maintenance person with a mental illness, then if you don’t bend the President to my will I’ll sell you out to Gawker, and that’s BEFORE we meet.”

    You feel good about publishing this, Sargent?

    Was the chance to publicly out people a significant source of inspiration for you when deciding to go into journalism?

      He’s working a dead end blog job at Gawker. Guess he feels he needs to take a shot.

    He seems like a nice enough guy. He was respectful in all of the communications shared, he read through the stuff he sent, he offered to send him the balance of what he owed when he bailed. I don’t see the point.

      This isn’t even gossip. It’s hearsay. And hearsay from the rantings of a seemingly crazy person with an agenda and an axe to grind. All of the information Ryan has is publicly available including the phone number and address. There’s nothing here that could in any way be described as “proof.”

      My guess? Ryan went to Geithner to try to get his story published or maybe to get it to somebody higher up, got burned, and then concocted this story because he knew it would get Gawker to bite.

      I didn’t see anything about cheating on his wife... she’s on record somewhere about him not being aloud to touch other people with his dick?

      Who the fuck thought it was okay to run this shit?

      I thought Gawker was pro gay.

      But now they are destroying the lives of closeted gay men. For clicks. Gross.

      But let me get more of my opinions here.

      After this article, they just lost any moral high grounds against reddit or Buzzfed. Not even TMZ would go this low.

    Why is this published here?

    Why is Gawker outing him?

    Where is the proof he offered to bring it to Obama’s attention if the story was killed? That is the only thing that would make this newsworthy. Even then I’d give him a pass because of how fucked up the entire situation is.

      It’s extremely homophobic. I can’t believe no one questioned if this was worthy story or didn’t realize that the readership would be disgusted and insulted

      Gawker has nerve shitting on reddit. Get your own house in order.

      Jordan calling you a fucking shit stain ass clown would be an insult to fucking shit stain ass clowns everywhere.

    So the escort decided to go public. But you protect his name, and out Geithner for no good reason other than an unsubstantiated claim that he might have offered (or felt extorted) to use his influence to hush up a completely personal and private interaction. In eight years, I’ve never been more disgusted by a Gawker article. And that’s saying something.

      His influence that he likely didn’t even have. He was just saying that to make the guy go away. He’s the brother of a previously important now ex-public official, who no longer has power over anything. That makes this guy they outed... a normal private citizen with no greater power than your or me. None of our business. Gawker should be ashamed
