Who would prosecute this? DA in New York?

There is not enough popcorn for the upcoming CNN destruction show. This is going to be epic.

Hope he hires a lawyer and sues them. Seems like they would settle out of court on this

America used to have compelling enemies like Mussolini and Hitler.

but the left?

their enemies are Rodeo clowns, youtube creators, individual internet posters.

it’s extremely cowardly.

[McGruff]

I fear all CNN has done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve.

But this happens all the time. Pornographer Larry Flynt blackmailed Congress during the Clinton Impeachment by openly declaring on a radio show that his detectives found Congress members having affairs and if Clinton was removed from office, he would reveal them.

Speaker Gingrich refused to allow testimony in the Judiciary Committee from Juanita Broadrick or anything major related to Filegate, Chinagate, Travelgate, etc. Only Monica-related was pushed to the prosecutor's astonishment. (Sellout: The Inside Story of President Clinton's Impeachment by David P. Schippers & Alan P. Henry) What was wrong with Newt?

Later Newt Gingrich resigned as it came out he was having an affair with a staffer.

Acting Speaker Livingston took over and immediately had to resign due to multiple affairs which he did when Maxine Waters and some other female liberal Congresswomen actually hissed accusations at him on the House floor when he was speaking - like snakes. He couldn't take it. Next was Dennis Hastert and we all know now that he had plenty to be blackmailed about. President Clinton was not removed from office.

Open blackmail in action. In this case, I called the FBI after Flynt's statement and actually got through to an agent who talked to me. I asked him if that wasn't a blackmail crime. He basically said that because Flynt was a publisher and it was politically related it wasn't a crime. Same goes for CNN as far as I can see. They get to do crimes you or I would be arrested for because they are media and it's political.

I am very surprised this morning to see that Fox & Friends appears not to be reporting at all on CNN’s despicable action.

I know that Fox has turned leftward in recent times, but Fox & Friends has continued to be mostly conservative in its perspective.

Al Capone was a violent thug. The government couldn’t shut him down for his violence or his thuggery. So they shut him down for tax evasion. Not exciting, but it did the trick.

CNN is a lying DNC front. Trump has weakened them for their lying and their bias, but they aren’t dead yet. But this bit of extortion may kill them. Perhaps not exciting stuff, but it might do the trick. They shouldn’t be a national news org.

[TMA62]

What is so ironic is that CNN and others in the MSM, always state the following in their reports: “anonymous sources,” “an unnamed source,” “sources tell CNN news that...”, etc. CNN and others love to have sources with no names or identities.

Now CNN has a source.....and is threatening to release his name!!

[barmag25]

The “reporters” of this better hope there are no skeletons in their closets.

I got a feeling a lot of their personal info is going to be discovered

[Tench_Coxe]

I seem to recall seeing media people repeating that they weren't enemies of the US. This is the equivalent to those old videos of POWs reading their "confession" (kid) with a soldier holding a gun just outside of the camera shot (CNN).
And for what, a silly gif?

[ReaganGeneration2]

A plausible timeline - the dominoes start falling: first advertisers, then the airports, then the satellite networks, then cable companies... Then the doors are locked.

[LegendHasIt]

Rumor Has It that the subject of CNN’s threats, coercion and blackmail is a 15 year old kid.

I have long wondered if Andrew Kaczynski is any relation to Theodore Kaczynski (The Unabomber)

From what I’ve seen on this topic, CNN got most of its info on the meme poster from none other than the notoriously leftist ADL.

What TigerClaws posted on another thread is worth repeating here:

Time Warner owns both CNN and Reddit.

They likely just shared his IP info with CNN and CNN created the backstory that the guy outed himself. If they had his IP from owning Reddit, that’s obviously where they tracked him down.

To which I can only add:

If true, this is a criminal conspiracy, is clearly racketeering, and collusion between two or more corrupt organizations to commit a crime.

RICO!

[logi_cal869]

Um, no: It’s not extortion. Blackmail certainly (tonshut him up) but not extortion.

[Neoliberalnot]

This is the course par for the old media. They commit too many crimes to count with the barrage of lies from the left. CNN and other old media liars are the life blood of the left and the DNC. Never have they been more corrupt. CNN will skate with the blackmail crime just like they do with their fabricated anon sources.

You know what to do.

We ALL need to start posting joke videos that mock CNN now.
