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

It's funny when journalists say "we meant to say" when using words is their damn job.

 

It's crazy when people associate anybody who doesn't believe a lot of mainstream media with donald trump now. I have been saying to people not to watch the shit before he came along and did the whole fake news thing. Mainstream media has always been full of shit, driving a narrative, etc. Better off just getting your news from independent journalists or researching for yourself honestly. There is no integrity in journalism anymore, it's all about clicks and getting the story, ratings, etc.

 

I'm reading that the line in my title was added during editing but they don't know who did it.

Car and Driver put editors notes in parentheses YEARS ago, maybe journalists should make sure each other's words are credited.

Pretty easy to say "wasn't me" if they don't note it or keep records.

 

Used to watch Fox News off and on before Obama won and the day he did I quit watching. I knew it was going to be half bullshit at minimum.

 

CNN behaved appropriately. This man (yes, Trump Jr. said a 15 year old boy, but he lied, it's a grown man) threatened violence and made anti-Semitic attacks against CNN staff members. He has a long history of racist, anti-Semitic, homophobic and violent verbiage. Because of him, there are CNN staffers who had to move their families as their children are receiving death threats. The man said he is sorry so CNN said, basically, OK, if you really regret your actions you don't repeat them. If you do, we will show who you are.

Obviously this man is stupider than Russian hackers. He did not really try very hard to hide his identity.

I know any attack on "fake media" (defined as anyone who does not praise Trump) is fine with some.

 

Delusional post. Proof CNN staffers were getting death threats before (key word before) this story with a threat in it ran.

And CNN says they did not say they would out him if he did it again. They lied and said it means nothing of the sort.

You can't even keep their lies straight. Which is what happens when people lie constantly as Trump's inconsistent tweet garbage proves.

Everyone believed at the time that it was a 15 year old kid. Please edit your post to reflect that Jr. was wrong, that doesn't mean he lied.

 

Only thing you have right on here is that it wasn't a 15 year old kid. He never threatened staff. Don't know where you got that from. This is over the gif trump posted which was his and they went after him and if he didn't apologize they were gonna release his identity. That's messed up, yes he has a history of posting on Reddit racist remarks, but that doesn't make it okay for CNN to do what they did. No families had to be moved over this so I have no clue where you get that from

 

I've heard CNN people are getting their personal information leaked after they threatened this guy, that's the extent of it I believe.

 

It has nothing to do with that dude I can tell you that. Not like he ordered that. I believe it though, I knew CNN fucked up when they went after the internet. Shouldn't have. Because of their ridiculous actions, their staff is getting doxed

 

I just don't understand why they did that. Could of gone after trump and the tweet itself like you normally would of done, instead you find the guy who made the meme and go after him? Why? It just makes no sense

 

Yeah, I wasn't trying to insinuate this guy had anything to do with it. You would think after years and years of this stuff happening, people would learn not to piss the internet off, but people keep making the same mistakes.

 

Imagine making a meme you thought was funny, shit posting it and days later CNN calls you, demanding you go on Reddit and issue an apology or else your identity gets leaked.

 

BUT SOMEONE THINK OF THE CNN PEOPLE! THERE ARE CNN STAFFERS WHO HAD TO MOVE THEIR FAMILIES AS THEIR CHILDREN ARE RECEIVING DEATH THREATS! REEEEEEEEEEE!

 

What do you mean political cartoon? It wasn't printed in a real newspaper so it has to be a call for violence against all journalists. Duh.
