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 CNNs 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 wouldnt 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.

Andrew Kaczynski is the senior editor and founding member of CNN’s KFILE the leading investigation team for the social, mobile generation.
I’m curious as to why ‘The Donald’ on Reddit kept deleting his apology. Anyone know or understand why?
FreeRepublic, Breitbart, and Drudge were covering it for hours before FoxNews got on to the story.
I don't think we know that for sure. It's mostly a rumor making the rounds on Twitter.
Before He Was Attacking Keith Ellison, CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski Was Fawning Over Howard Dean
On Thursday, Andrew Kaczynski, senior reporter and founder of CNNs K-File investigative reporting team, sent out a series of tweets calling attention to an article hed written about a potential controversy involving DNC chair candidate and progressive favorite, Rep. Keith Ellison.
However, Kaczynski has drawn criticism from notable journalists for other omissions. He does not mention that Ture was the former leader of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), which Zaid Jilani of The Intercept was quick to note, as well as the Honorary Prime Minister of the Black Panther Party.
Kaczynski’s piece on the controversy surrounding Keith Ellison’s past provides a wonderful jumping off point to illustrate just how mainstream media is in large part to blame for the spread of fake newsThe Washington Post’s largely discredited blacklist notwithstanding.
I know, I was on those threads.
I think Andrew Kaczynski did the Trump video himself and is actually covering for himself to protect his job...... Note below his tendancy to post old video clips of politicians!!!
Per Wiki below:
Andrew Kaczynski (born November 30, 1989[1]) is an American journalist and a political reporter for CNN.[2] He became well known in 2011 by posting old video clips of politicians, often of them making statements contrary to their current political positions, to YouTube.[3] He was described as “the [2012] Republican primaries’ most influential amateur opposition researcher”.[4]
He was hired by BuzzFeed in December 2011.[5] He has appeared on MSNBC, Fox News, CNN, NPR, PBS, and C-SPAN.[6] On October 3, 2016, Kaczynski announced he was leaving BuzzFeed and joining CNN.[7]
2012
In 2012, Kaczynski uncovered numerous clips of Mitt Romney supporting an individual mandate, contradicting his then-current campaign position. He also uncovered a clip of Barack Obama protesting at Harvard while at law school over a lack of faculty diversity.
2013
In November 2013, Kaczynski reported that Kentucky Senator Rand Paul had plagiarized sections of a speech he gave in June 2013 on immigration from the Wikipedia article of the movie Stand and Deliver. Kaczynski subsequently reported Paul’s 2012 book Government Bullies also contained passages that were plagiarized from articles from the right-wing think tank Heritage Foundation and from the libertarian Cato Institute.[18] Further reports by Kaczynski revealed another four instances of plagiarism from an article by Case Western Reserve University professor Jonathan H. Adler and Pacific Legal Foundation attorney Timothy Sandefur. Another section of the book was discovered to be plagiarized from an article written in Forbes Magazine.
Following the Boston Marathon bombings of 2013, he played a role in spreading unsubstantiated misinformation about the identities of the suspected bombers when he retweeted false reports made by Reddit user Greg Hughes.[19][20]
2014
In 2014, Kaczynski continued with a series of articles chronicling politicians’ plagiarism. Kaczynski found more than a dozen examples of politicians running for office in 2014 copying their plans and issues pages verbatim from other candidates.[21]
2015
In 2015, Politico reported [22] Kaczynski was leading internal opposition research at BuzzFeed looking to dig up dirt on politicians. NPR reported[23] Kaczynski’s team dug up clips of Donald Trump saying he supported despite statements to the contrary the Iraq War; a clip of Hillary Clinton referring to some children as “super predators”; a video of Ben Carson saying he believed the pyramids were used to store grain; and a video of Bernie Sanders proclaiming his support for Fidel Castro and the Sandinistas in Nicaragua.
Kaczynski subsequently found clips of Donald Trump supporting the 2011 American intervention in Libya,[24] the toppling of Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak,[25] and pushing for US action to protect Iranian protesters.[26]
2016
Clips Kaczynski found of Donald Trump on the Howard Stern Show[27] were used in both Democratic[28] and Republican[29] attack ads against Trump and as the basis of a question in the first general election Presidential debate of 2016.
During the US campaign for president in 2016, Kaczynski brought to attention a statement by the chairman of the American Nazi Party in support of Republican candidate Donald Trump on the grounds that “if Trump does win ... it’s going to be a real opportunity for people like white nationalists.”[30]
2017
In January, Kaczynski reported that Monica Crowley had plagiarized large sections of her 2012 book What The (Bleep) Just Happened.[31] The publisher, HarperCollins, announced they would stop selling the book.[31] The Trump Administration tapped Crowley to serve as senior director of strategic communications for the National Security Council.[31]
Later that month, Kaczynski surfaced audio of Donald Trump’s nominee for secretary of labor, Andrew Puzder, describing the employees hired at his restaurants as the “best of the worst”.[32] Puzder later withdrew due to other reasons, and did not join the administration.[33]
In May 2017, he reported that Sheriff David Clarke had plagiarized portions of his master’s thesis.[34]
I thought the same thing. I’m betting much unknown information will be revealed about “CNNs Andrew Kaczynsk” before long. I’m thinking Andrew will soon believe somebody hated him when this job assignment went out. It wouldn’t surprise me if info on several other CNN mouthpieces will be distributed as a warning about declaring war on that hornets nest.
I posted the link to 8chan for the doxing hilarity, not for the racist crap there. Everyone knows the chans are a rough neighborhood of the Internet.
Down Laz, down, good boy...Laz is a good boy. Seriously, dude go get some coffee. Exposing CNN fake news is a very good thing but don't use the left's tactics. Maybe I misses a /sarcasm tag in your comment? :-)
Was I wrong? Every CNN employee WILL die, unless they are Immortal. Further, every CNN building WILL be razed, unless they reached the pinnacle of design.
My only addition to the reality is "Let the name CNN be uttered nowhere, utterly erased from history."
I would say replace the star with a hammer and sickle. I would wager that at least 95% of those shown are a bunch of lousy commie JINOs.
*sigh... knew this was coming...
CNN is in covefe hell now.
He PURPOSELY refers to a 15 year old BOY as a "man" & "guy"
*****
Me--Don't mess with Trumper's Andrew! LOL
