True, they however heavily implied that it was him and then threatened to release his personal info if they felt like it. Now it's starting to look like he didn't even create the stuff Trump tweeted so CNN effectively threatened to doxx some moron on reddit nationally because of his shitposting.

there's a lot of problems with this analysis

-cnn never threatened to doxx the guy. you can interpret their statement that way but the more logical interpretation is that it was a legal disclaimer that cnn not releasing his info is not normal practice and should not be interpreted as that they would never release his name. typically and by rights cnn should have released his name

-cnn has no reason to threaten this guy to begin with. if they wanted to damage him they would have released his name. there's no reason at all for them to threaten to release his info instead of just doing it, since the guy started deleting everything before the cnn article came out saying they had found the dude. from the article you posted:

"After posting his apology, "HanA**holeSolo" called CNN's KFile and confirmed his identity. In the interview, "HanA**holeSolo" sounded nervous about his identity being revealed and asked to not be named out of fear for his personal safety and for the public embarrassment it would bring to him and his family."

why would they threaten the guy at this point? it makes no sense at all unless you assume cnn is trying to gently caress with a random redditor because they are evil

-if he didn't create the thing trump posted why did he claim credit for creating it?

-isn't it more likely that saying the gifs are slightly different (even though this guy definitely originated the idea if not the specific gif) is just trying to muddy the waters as part of an orchestrated astroturfing campaign to further enrage alt right idiots into being mad at the fake jew news?

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.
How does that sound like legal disclaimer? They directly state that they are going to use his statement as an example and that if any of previous things change, they'll announce his name.
Also, what makes you think that announcing names of private citizens that haven't broken any laws is 'normal practice'? Do you in general approve media broadcasting personal info of people they decide they don't like or do you limit it to people guilty of wrongthink?
There's plenty of reasons for CNN to actually not announce his name, like if someone goes and bashes his face in and then screams that he did it because CNN said that he's evil Trumpist, can CNN be held liable and sued?

Who knows why retards do their things. But the guy shitposted on internet and CNN decided to make an example of him since they couldn't do anything about Trump.



It's /pol/, so there's good chance it's a fake but on other hand, they certainly have the kind of people who could do that.

Because "news" is not limited to crime reporting, and reporting the names of people involved in news stories is usual unless there is a specific reason not to?

this is absolutely normal journalistic practice. they found a guy at the center of a story, they reached him and asked him for comment. he refused to comment at first but then contacted CNN of his own free will and apologized, and said please don't use my name. they did not use his name

if you think this is wrongthink then lol at you not knowing how journalism works and confusing your own lack of knowledge for censorship. it's entirely normal to find someone in a story and reach out to them for comment, it's how you get the other side of the story and is good journalistic practice

it doesn't make any sense at all for CNN to make an example of this guy. sorry, but that's just not something which happens in reality. plenty of people poo poo talk CNN every day and I dont think they care enough to pick fights with randos on twitter, unless you interpret the behavior of a huge news organization as if it were a single person who was mad on twitter

I don't know what's worse: the hosed-up tie or the red shirt. I feel like a broken record when I say it, but I HATE red shirts. I've bartended so many weddings where there's always at least one guest wearing a red shirt/black tie combo (or vice versa).

Every single one of them is parroting that 15-year-old poo poo. If a 15-year-old was actually making all those anti-Semitic, etc. comments, I'd hope that CNN would say "He's 15 so we won't divulge who he is, but rest assured we've called his parents and told them the vile things their son posts online."
