CNN Doxxes a gif maker

The part where superimposing the CNN logo over a decade old wrestling video is "threatening journalists' obviously.

#cnnblackmail.

That is not fake. That is a matter of interpretation of meaning. Different interpretations are not "fake."
 
I see the words blackmail getting tossed around other places. Generally, blackmail involves the revealing of compromising information. This doesn't involve the reveal of compromising information because the compromising information is public. So not blackmail?

A has made statements that suggest they are gay. I find out that they are from a Muslim community, and I tell them "shut up or I reveal your name." Is it absolved by the fact that the statements are public?

Did that person create some form of video that shows the Muslim Community getting clothes lined that could be perceived as approval to beat the **** out of them? Just curious. I like my fake scenarios to be accurate.
 
CNN said in a statement that the tweet "encourages violence against reporters."

:rolleyes:

Because Trump is vocally, and constantly anti-media (unless it's conspiracy theory ******** that's spoken in words small enough he can understand) and has a history of promoting violence against them.

I'm sure you have some stupid emoticon and one line quip for this, but you can save it. Like normal, it won't add anything to the conversation.
 
On the flipside of that coin, if someone posts anonymously (or pseudonymously) due to fears of retaliation they could be chilled into silence. If (say) a gay man in a muslim community is doxxed in a similar manner the precedent has already been set for it to be acceptable, and honour killings have happened.

And an antisemite in the US is just like a gay man in saudi arabia.

Just because something doesn't blare in flashing neon lights "go commit violence against reporters" doesn't mean that message isn't there.

This President also has referred to journalists as the "enemy."

When a person reaches the pinnacle of power and authority in the world that Trump has, his behavior and conduct subtly read as a blueprint for what behavior one should engage in to accrue similar benefits.

This doesn't happen at a conscious level, however.

Where was that claim made in the story you linked ?

There is no doxxing in the story linked.

First post lies about the article, (CNN doxxed someone) and has tripled down so far.

Yep, #fauxconcern about #notdoxxed because CNN (biased liberal media)
reported on one of Trump's tweet attachments.
:D

well the person #cnnblackmails is threatening ain't the President and pro wrestling ain't real.

Although spinning some shlub on the reddits as the bad guy is another reason why the mutts at CNN keep embarrassing themselves.

That it is your opinion does not make it obvious. You need more than your own opinion in order to support your claim.

Then you should have simply stated your position from the start, instead of trying to play stupid games.

What? How is it a game to point out that being a public figure has nothing to do with it, which you YOURSELF admitted when I pointed it out? If anything YOU were playing games by pretending that it did.

I'm not interested in absolution. I'm interested if it is blackmail. Even if it isn't blackmail, that doesn't mean the act is ethical.
 
Don't make fun of CNN or they will threaten to dox you.

"Extremely unethical."
 
He is a public figure.

Really? That is funny because CNN said he was a private citizen, but they are going to dox the **** out of him if he dares to make anymore funny gifs making fun of billion dollar corporations.

Might want to "update" your "research."

I don't care what CNN thinks. He is a public figure.

Might want to update your thread title then.

CNN has not doxxed him.
