CNN Threatens Reddit User For Exercising Free Speech | #CNNBlackmail [video only]
YouTube.com ^ | Jul 4, 2017 | Stefan Molyneux

Posted on 07/05/2017 1:18:16 AM PDT by servo1969

As America celebrated Independence Day, the Internet exploded following allegations that CNN threatened and coerced the Reddit user behind the popular Donald Trump/CNN Wrestling meme into silence for exercising his first amendment rights. In an article by CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski, it is detailed how Reddit user HanA**holeSolo “apologized for calls for violence against the press,” took down all his social media posts, begged for his identity not to be released an promised he wouldn’t engage in any similar behavior. The article noted that CNN agreed not to release his name, but “reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change.”

Molyneux’s video is the first response I’ve seen from one of YouTube’s heavy hitters.

The rest are asleep right now but some have tweeted they will be on the case in the morning. (Most are probably laid out from BBQ and beer, it being the Fourth and all.)

YouTube will be nuclear tomorrow. It’s going to be glorious!

This is so typical of many millennials. CNN focused on fixing blame.

They (CNN) might want to check themselves.

OK, here we go. Old media is about to clash with new, and I know where my bet's going.

CNN must die. Praise Kek.

Every story posted on CNN’s twitter or facebook page is being bombarded with hundreds and sometimes thousands of angry responses. Very little support for CNN after they pulled this.

The folks at CNN wont know what hit them. I almost feel sorry for them. Not really, they deserve every bit of it and they are going to get it.

Oh my. CNN has no idea what they've stepped in. I only hope the response is as glorious as I imagine.

CNN using its media power to threaten and blackmail private citizens. That’s “investigative reporting”.

Even the libtards on reddit are attacking CNN now. Not a good idea to blackmail a 15 year old boy. They really screwed up this time.
