So CNN is FAKe NEWS?

CNN harassed Blackmailed a 15 yr old kid, the kids posted a funny Gif online that triggers CNN Staff

...not a Trump supporter, but sometimes he is interesting to watch...also the world politics and the USA politics is weird, interesting, amusing all at the same time....I've always said it CNN, BBC, Foxnews, MSNBC, Al-jazerra, Pravda whateevr you call them all BS, all horrible but different flavors of the same shit

They track down , hunt a guy online? Others said he's a middle aged man? Others say nine yrs old

So this morning trending acorss the snapcats, blogs, boards, twitter, facebook is this story. I'm still trying to pick out the details. Washington Times has soemthing of a story and from what I can tell, this kid posted a funny animated image online, Trump doing a smackdown WWE/WWF style on some other guy in photoshpped in CNN logo...possibly Vince McMahon? ..it goes viral on the internet.... The President of the USA then re-tweets the thing on twitter? CNN slowly starts to go Batshit Crazy...then CNN threatens to reveal Facebook? Reddit Twitter? tracks down stalks user as kid? black mailed the child to reval identity over Trump wrestling video/gif

So they say CNN 'extremely unethical' with online emailer internet user, but was it blackmail?

“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,” the CNN media news network reasoned.

This added line with veiled threat? sparks a #CNNBlackmail social media campaign: “CNN reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change.”

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, suggested CNN broke state law.
https://twitter.com/tedcruz/status/882624428479307776

At issue was a graph in the story that explained why CNN was withholding the man’s identity — “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’s not going to repeat this ugly behavior on social media again.”

But the controversy arose with a sentence that followed: “CNN reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change.”

At one end of the outrage spectrum were Cruz, Julian Assange and other pundits who were tweeting the hashtag #CNNBlackmail to suggest that CNN’s actions amounted to a threat to expose one’s private information known as “doxing.”

CNN says tracked down the online person — who created the doctored video of the president clothes-lining a man whose face was covered with a CNN logo using footage of a WrestleMania XXIII stunt in 2007 when Mr Trump slammed World Wrestling Entertainment CEO Vince McMahon to the mat.

German Lopez, a reporter for Vox, a left-leaning news web site, said: “I can’t emphasise how bad this is on CNN’s part. This is basically ‘don’t post stuff we don’t like or we’ll dox you.’ Extremely unethical.”

According to Wikileaks founder, Julian Assange, this isn’t just a matter of privacy but a matter of legality. He points to the New York criminal code under section 135.60 in a tweet.

CNN just committed a crime violating § 135.60 of the New York criminal code “coercion” https://t.co/FwPPlczPRhhttps://t.co/AHQhjDS6ds pic.twitter.com/a7HAdMQQDV

Hm. Is CNN feeling fragile after having to fire some staffers in a bs/ pr move?

CNN is engaging in mafia style thuggery and intimidation , no question about it.

IDK if the reddit poster is 15 or 40, it doesn't matter. Threats to dox him go so far beyond the pale of journalism, it's criminal and CNN deserves to be investigated.

That .GIF was nothing but parody. Perfectly legal in a FREE society.

Oh, but what Kathy Griffin did was ' comedy ', huh ? Madonna's comments about blowing up the WH just 'free speech '? Snoop Dog's video mere artistic expression ?

This is why Trump won. They STILL don't get it !

Blind to what, exactly ?

Do you deny this is exactly what CNN did ? Calling anyone 'blind' is a non sequitur.

What are you trying to say ? Do you even know ?

I saw a video where some crazy broad on CNN was saying over and over again that this tweet by the Prez was endangering the lives of people on CNN.

I had no idea they were doxing the original poster of the image though.

Jesus....

Guess I better be careful when I make a meme and post it here, huh?

As of 7-6-2017...

That's a dangerous prescedent that they're setting though.

Fortunately, it seems that CNN is suffering from a case of the Streisand Effect over this one though.

I was going to show a bunch of the images I've seen on some youtube videos about this, but it seems as though Google has been paying some overtime to keep those pictures off of their image search.

Ahhh....

Here we go. Good ol' Youtube. Owned by Google, but somehow not blocked here yet.

Make sure you watch it soon before it gets taken down.

Actually, he did.

Second, there's no proof the originator of the .GIF was a ' kid '.

Third, the only anti-FreePress anywhere near this story is CNN. Freedom also includes the ability of anyone to make a freaking .GIF as a joke and not be threatened by a huge cable news network who doesn't find their idiocy an amusing topic.

Sorry CNN, but everyone is laughing AT you, and there's nothing you can do about it.

No... nobody was threatened...

I can only imagine what was in that email that CNN sent him before he took down everything off of Reddit and made one of the most coerced sounding apologies I've heard in a while....

I'm guessing it went something like this.

Listen up, fuck-stick.

We know who you are.

We know where you live.

We know the names of all of your friends and relatives.

We know where you work.

We know everything you've ever posted here on Reddit.

We know more about you than you know yourself.

We are CNN.

and we are coming for you.

Yeah.

I don't know what it is about being anti-Trump that allows one to believe that this was anything less than a very serious threat.
