CNN has no idea what they have done, which is good, because it will hasten their demise.
That liberal bubble must be bullet-proof.
But Antifa thugs can wear masks, threaten everyone in sight, and violently attack whomever they please, whenever they please. And CNN has no problem with that?
Only Obama has that right...
Kirsten does know you have to end with /s, right?
hey Curseten, STFU,....anonymous
Why not, Democrats think people who Vote in our Elections should be anonymous.
Give them a Name, any Name and they hand you a Ballot, even of you can’t speak English.
Background Checks for Guns isn’t enough, now they want Background Checks for Opinions.
Would be willing to bet Kirstin is one who would go to jail to protect an anonymous source.
Anonymity for me but not for the!
Soooooo...
A GIF-formatted meme of Trump whipping “CNN” butt is somehow racist, mysoginist, homophobic?
“Nuke the Internet from Orbit. It’s the only way to be sure”.
Kirsten Powers
Yes. Yes, they do. People do have a right to be anonymous online and people do have a right to say racist or unpleasant things. Why do you think freedom of speech, give from Gd, is something you can control? (To the CNN shmuck)
Our only exemption on freedom of speech is speech that incites to violence or panic that could hurt people. Calling fire in crowded theaters.
This is the wrong issue they need to brush up on, legally. Because here’s what will destroy them: their BLACKMAILING
The First Amendment trumps one’s right to remain anonymous.
The person in question posted a humorous (humorous to all but the most thin skinned CNNophile) gif.
CNN, after being offended by the gif, dug through the person's posting history and apparently found that he made some seedy posts in the past. I have no idea what these seedy posts were, but if one researched my posts they'd be similarly offended:
"Homophobic"? - 'Phobic' is the wrong word. Perhaps disgusted, and pitied would be better. I agree that there are probably valid fears about the spread of noxious diseases, and those that would prey on children, but by and large homosexuals are to be pitied. Homosexuality is a sin that is to be mourned, and not celebrated.
"Misogynist"? - Man and Woman are both made in the image of God, however Women are not allowed to be Preachers in a Church, and Men are supposed to provide Godly rule over their households. I'm sure this would rate a check mark in the misogynist column.
"Racist"? - We are all descended from Adam and Eve (and Noah and Mrs. Noah - and their son's wives) - but since the Media likes to pretend Islam is a race, and to pretend that standing for obeying the law (i.e., protecting the Nation's borders) is racist - then sure, I have posts that qualify as racist...
So what is this dust that Powers is throwing up into the air? The 'offense' in question was posting a humorous gif, and apparently that gave Powers' chums the right to unmask the poster and dig through his previous posts. A very Orwellian crackdown by the self-designated Thought Police.
The hole they are digging gets deeper...
Except when CNN uses unnamed sources!
What a crock!!!!
Corleone News Network at it again!!
Dear Kirsten: You can threaten all you want, as you are a CNN fake news hired thug. Just remember CNN is now just as corrupt as a sleazy New Jersey crime family.
What you can’t do by threats and thuggery is gain back trust and respect as a legitimate news organization. It will take many years, perhaps decades, before CNN can gain back a good reputation—if that’s even possible.
CNN reminds me of Dan Rather and his “fake but accurate” documents: “The stupid, it burns.”
“so they can spew their racist, misogynist, homophobic garbage”
Does anyone know whether the individual Powers is threatening has actually posted statements a normal person would consider racist, misogynist, or homophobic, or is CNN lying again?
