cnn continues to take L's

[uh-oh]

http://www.cnn.com/2017/07/04/politi...eet/index.html

CNN is not publishing "HanA**holeSolo's" name because he is a private citizen who has issued an extensive statement of apology, showed his remorse by saying he has taken down all his offending posts, and because he said he is not going to repeat this ugly behavior on social media again. In addition, he said his statement could serve as an example to others not to do the same.

CNN reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change.

they are now threatening to dox private anonymous citizens for posting lolgifs.

it was bad enough how they spun the whole thing like trump was "advocating violence against the media" lol

weird world

It's not doxxing when a news organization shares the identity of someone who is involved directly in a news story. It's called news.

this person was not "involved directly" though, he made a meme that the president found and reposted on his own. trump didn't credit him. cnn tracked down a random shitposter, went the extra mile to find out who was behind the avatar, and coerce a public apology in exchange for not releasing his information to the rabid trump hating wolves

its strange times when the president posts a meme in the first place, let alone a meme of him at wrestlemania clotheslining a gif of a news organization lmao

but to go after some random dude on the net for making it in the first place, when he had no intention of the president using it, and no intention of creating the false narrative of encouraging assault on the media is shitty. pure and simple.

the gif was obviously made as a commentary for trumps whole cnn is fake news in a "oh shit trump bodied them lolzers" way.

i dunno, as someone who has made shit memes clowning around, i couldn't imagine being hunted down to have my personal info posted opening myself up to the crazies on either side

would you want the alt right, or the antifa to have your home address and a reason to hate you? all because you made a harmless meme taken completely out of context?

all the news needed to report was, hmm did trump make it? who did? oh some hanassholesolo troll on a forum? so it wasn't trumps team? ok. lets report on actual news.

^agreed
