$55m payout to Fox Sports reporter Erin Andrews over nude video

A jury has awarded Fox Sports reporter Erin Andrews $55m (€50m) in her lawsuit against a stalker who bought a hotel room next to her and secretly recorded a nude video, finding that the hotel companies and the stalker shared in the blame.

It found the stalker was responsible for 51% of the verdict and the two hotel companies should share the rest, which is nearly $27 million.

Andrews, who is also co-host of the TV show Dancing with the Stars, wept as jurors announced the verdict.
