Don Jr. tweeted about this already.

CNNBlackMail is number one trend on twitter.

They threatened this poster - to ‘out’ him, his family, and possibly cost him his job or lead to death threats from the nutty leftists.

This was a private citizen posting a joke video that Trump happened to laugh at and share.

This could happen to any member of Free Republic tomorrow.

Shocked some here think this is press freedom when it’s clearly the intimidation and threatening of a private person who happens to post online.

Word is on 4 chan that the poster was a 15 year old kid.

This story is still front and center on their website...

cnn.com

They are using it to intimidate people.

Saw the exposing of the lie about the story.

They likely called and left a message and the (supposedly 15 year old kid) Redditor didn’t know what to do. He went online and deleted everything he posted on that ID and posted an apology.

He then spoke to CNN apologizing more. CNN, finding out it was a minor, agreed not to publish the name.

But a 4chan person already located the kid and he will likely be ‘outed’ because of this at some point.

Note also that Time Warner owns CNN and Reddit. They likely tracked him down from his IP address used on Reddit. They then created the ‘we found him out through his posts’ as a cover story because what they did might violate RICO.

Putin's boys might see an opportunity here. They could flood social media with anti-CNN spoofs. :-)

Is CNN guilty of blackmail against the Reddit user who created the viral GIF of Donald Trump attacking a mock CNN reporter?

Julian Assange @JulianAssange
A multi-billion dollar TV network blackmailing a private citizen into not making funny videos about it is not journalism, CNN. #CNNBlackmail

CNN is not different than ISIS or North Korea. Threaten people for making memes. Pure evil.

BTW, since I’m slightly intoxicated I’d like to thank 2ndDivisionVet for the enormous amount of content he posts on FR. He is truly awesome.

Happy independence day patriots!

Tonight US Representative Scott Taylor accused CNN of coercion and blackmail!

Republican Scott Taylor is a former Navy SEAL.

@CNN U basically coerce apology & threaten release of identity if something changes? Pretty sure a line is crossed here. #CNNBlackmail https://t.co/k4W9AepP6W

The answer is for the kid to disarm the blackmail by saying he did it. And it’s up to us to fight in his behalf.

Yup...I don’t know where he gets all the info on new companies and the jobs they will create, but it’s like watching Fox Business.
