Cool, let me know when they actually out somebody and your not just repeating whatever /r/TheDonald claims they tried to do.

Lol... you're just separated from reality. Read the statement they released about how he needs to behave in the future or they reserve the right to out him. That is the problem. Not whether or not he was outed. The fact that CNN thinks making thinly veiled threats to do so is okay is the problem.

Please find where I said they outed him.

Never. Because South Korea won't do it, and China won't buy into it unless he goes loose cannon.

Again: The guy is a-okay with releasing everyone else's personal info in his war against the Jews. Maybe you need to determine why he has a right to out thousands of others who have done nothing in a antisemitic quest against the Jews, but to be outed himself is suddenly bad.

And CNN didn't out him. At all. You're repeating TheDonald's claims about CNN.

Cole, you're wrong. CNN didn't out him, blackmail him, threaten, or even implicitly threaten him. His mea culpa came before the story and they said they withheld his personal details.

The whole part that your hung up on isn't a threat. It's a news organization saying that if he does something newsworthy they will report on it again and they aren't bound to keep his identity secret.

CNN did not doxx the guy. The journalist did some basic investigating and reached out to the guy. They are explicitly NOT doxxing him or revealing anything. They also are doing nothing whatsoever to affect his behavior. If he goes back to being a racist shithead they aren't going to drop an article that is nothing but his contact info. He would actually need to do something newsworthy to ever be mentioned again.

The fact that several red states had the thought of "Wait a minute, if we send this data up and a Democrat takes office..." does not redeem them.

I just think that every single American's second amendment right to privacy should be respected, even if they espouse quote-unquote "unsavory" or "fringe" (read: unpopular) white supremacist opinions; and this sort of hand-wringing by the liberal thought police is exactly why Donald Trump won the election.
