Nick Denton's Gawker empire of gossip Web sites loves to expose everyone else's secrets -- but he's tight-lipped about the confidential settlement made with art collector/gallery owner Keya Morgan. Two years ago, Morgan -- who is making a documentary, "Marilyn Monroe: Murder on Fifth Helena Drive" -- brokered the $1.5 million sale of the Monroe sex tape. Gawker's La-based sister site, Defamer, claimed no such tape existed and depicted Morgan as a hoaxer, so he sued for $50 million. The case was settled this week. The original Defamer posts were deleted, but neither party is allowed to discuss the terms.
