I find the language CNN is using to be disturbing. From the CNN article:

CNN is not publishing “HanA**holeSolo’s” name because he is a private citizen who has issued an extensive statement of apology, showed his remorse by saying he has taken down all his offending posts, and because he said he is not going to repeat this ugly behavior on social media again. In addition, he said his statement could serve as an example to others not to do the same.

CNN reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change.

Sounds just like the “Cultural Revolution” in China.

“Naming and shaming”......in the town square.

In most communist dictatorships, where 'apologies' are coerced, the media usually follows the communist leadership.

This is the first time I have seen the media LEAD the communist revolution.

I would not at all be surprised if the 'apology' read like this:

I confess fully and without coercion that I have committed a serious crime against the Glorious Cable News Network, and that I had no knowledge of the severity and penalties that surround such a serious crime against the State. I beg forgiveness for my transgression, and plead for mercy. I was not forced to make this apology in any way, and I am grateful to the Glorious Cable News Network, who has treated me with great kindness."
