It would be curious to have CNN explain what a ‘genuine apology’ is. I assume they have different levels of apology offerings in their mind.
Makes you wonder how things would be if they put this kind of investigative analysis into Russian hacking....might they find the original Hillary or DNC Russian-hacker and get him to also offer a genuine apology?
As Mark Steyn said, “Since when is CNN a law enforcement agency, or a church (to enforce moral laws)?”
No. You intellectually inbred idiots.
It’s extortion.
“”Need to point out again HanAssholeSolo is a middle aged man. People claiming he’s 15 are wrong. Some are intentionally spreading this.”
Ah, so we are talking about an adult.
CNN might not publish his name, but someone, perhaps CNN, will leak his name to another news source.
Time Warner may not have any choice but to rid cnn because if they want A.T.& T. to buy their company, A.T.& T. will not be selling any of their products to the American People...we won't stay or purchase them if cnn is still around...
I have to laugh when news sites report as fact that HanA**Solo is an adult, when all we have is CNN’s word for it.
But we have the actual post where CNN threatened him.
We’ll see how long the self-deception lasts. The people who are coming after them can’t be spun.
All criminals are liars.
All extortioners are criminal.
CNN extorts those who challenge their self-impressions.
CNN is lying about their intentions. They’ve already revealed the person’s identity to fellow criminals seeking to extract violent revenge on their adversary.
One doesn’t need proof to read their intentions and underlying lusts.
They’ve learned how to lie and not be held accountable. They are naturally further degenerating into extortionists and murderers.
Big time, as we used to say.
“But we have the actual post where CNN threatened him.”
Maybe HanA**Solo will come forward and file suit against CNN.
Ted Cruz and others have raised the possibility that CNN violated the law.
I’d like to see a criminal investigation.
I don’t think CNN has violated any laws on this matter, but if they have HanA**Solo can file a criminal complaint.
Standard leftist behavior. Can’t dispute the message so they go after the messenger. In this case it was some guy who had a little fun with an old video.
Funny how everyone got the joke except for CNN. Once again proving bullies can dish it out but they can’t take it. Thin skin and all.
Exactly. The age of the artist is irrelevant unless he really is a minor. It’s the threat by CNN that’s relevant.
Time for a “I AM SPARTACUS!” moment.
I AM HanAssholeSolo!
Eat THAT CNN!
It will only matter in court if any federal or state laws were broken.
The law of decency has been broken for sure. In a couple news cycles this will be old news and CNN will be back to making up the news as they go along and playing the victim every chance they get.
It’s what they do. It’s what they know. All pretense of being any kind of fair journalistic entity has been burned to the ground. Just smoldering ashes left now.
CNN is now tarnished forever but that doesn’t have to stop them from doing what they’ve been doing. What they do just won’t matter anymore. That boy done cried wolf a hundred times too many. Their reputation is shredded and there’s no coming back from that.
Someone will say “did you hear about (whatever)?” and the other person will ask where they heard that. When the person says “CNN” everyone will roll their eyes and continue on with what they were doing.
Is it worse if he's black? Gay? Trans?
This virtue signalling BS is not a defense. The implication is that if you do something evil to an LGBT 15 y/o (the original story) that is much worse than if you do it do a straight old white guy. No, it isn't.
The intent of @KFILE and CNN was to threaten a person with ruining his life if he didn't abase himself. That's evil and hateful. Period.
