Is she getting an Academy Award for her tear-jerker performance before the jury, too?

Why?
This is ridiculous. Its offensive.
People get relatives killed, or maimed themselves and get less.

So she was offended and her feeling were hurt? Come on!

An amount thing north of 20,000 and less than 100,000 would have ben more than adequate.

We need tort reform!

For someone taking naked pictures of her? That jury needs to go to jail.

They are effectively stealing someone else's money.

Andrews sued the hotel alleging it acted negligently when allowing a man who was stalking her to book the room next to hers and surreptitiously film nude videos of her in 2008 while she worked for ESPN.

How was the hotel supposed to know this guy was stalking her?

55 million...series???

How in the world can 55 million in damages be justified?

I am taking applications now for a person who will stalk my wife and take videos naked or otherwise at an expensive hotel chain... with the intent of suing them. It might involve a small amount of prison time, but if we can keep it on the down low... we will be glad to split part of the booty with you. She probably won’t be able to get as much as a young ESPN host, but after the lawyers take their cut of the millions, we should still have a few thousand to split.

We need contempt orders for the jury. The verdict needs to be vacated, and the Jury needs to spend a month in jail for abusing the court's time.

He managed to get her room number AND a room next to hers; AND he had time to alter the peep hole

So yeah, they had some culpability.

For those who have never picked up a stalker, there are very few protections in the system for the victim.
Police refuse to do anything until someone is killed or injured.
There is no $$$ in it as they can’t impound cars and sell them.

Your entire life, friends, family, financial, retirement can all be exposed for theft and or damage.

Meanwhile, TSA keeps us safe from grandparents in wheelchairs.

“If a man was stalked in this manner, he’d get $75m.” This ad brought to you by the Hillary Clinton for President Campaign. /sarc.

How did he manage to record videos of her nude, while in a room ‘next’ to hers ?

Does she run around in the nude in her hotel room, for hours ?

When this is dramatically lowered on appeal the jurors should be on the hook to make up the difference. Jurors would be a lot less apt to steal from the “big corporation” if their own wallets were on the line with their judgment.

There’s a peep hole in between neighboring hotel rooms ?

Seriously, the pics were not all that impressive. And definitely not worth $55 million.

She now has more money than the pro athletes she ...dates.

Another celebrity getting a celebrity ruling. Juries are (almost) invariably enamored with them.
