We need a thousand video clips going viral of that CNN logo imposed on every vile and disgusting thing people can imagine. Sometimes revenge is better served pipping hot.

This might be the best one to use, since CNN seems to have become overheated on a cool and cloudy day.

Sounds like CNN thinks it’s his mother.

How the hell did CNN find out the identity of this Reddit user?

So, I guess it is fair play to publish the contact information of those who pressured the guy.

I have a feeling that CNN is about to experience an incoming sh*t-storm.

They can silence one particular redditer. How well will they deal with thousands?

They threaten doxxing? How comfortable will they be with having their pictures, home addresses, and favorite hangouts all over the Internet? How comfortable will they be with pics of who they are making out with in their favorite bar being a topic of discussion? Not just the executives and producers and anchors, but EVERYONE, down to the cameramen and make-up girls?

Those folks are weaponized autism.

Ran into a few one time on another site. Wasn't their direct target, but it was like watching to barking mad dogs fight over a dead cow.

Time for ALL of us to start posting joke videos that mock CNN.

Reason 45,873 to NOT be on FaceBook, and to discourage family from being on FaceBook (because THEY might post info on you on their pages)

If this guy doesn’t sue CNN immediately it could only be because he doesn’t wish to be a multi-millionaire in about a week.

Here’s one example of a Twitter user active during the campaign who is now posting info on every employee of CNN:

Twitter account suspended.

Yet another reason to switch to Gab.ai

What about 4chan, reddit, and WikiLeaks vs CNN?

[Army Air Corps]

The backlash against CNN has been brutal. One example of such backlash being 4chan doxxing CNN employees (including newsreaders).
