also if you could read you could easily see that the dude is lying. try to use ur brain
From an initial read it kind of sounds like they were almost attempting to put the guy in a state of duress. Might be how I interpreted it, but whether or not that's actually the case is down to the individual reader to decide. But regardless, this whole thing is just dumb. Like why would CNN even be interested in tracking down this guy to the extent that they did in the first place?
I'm sure a lot of people would like to know their reasoning behind this entire thing. iirc what they did can have repercussions involving felony charges depending on the state laws as well, but I doubt that the reddit user would actually go out of his way to press charges given that it was reported that he wanted to remain anonymous, if he's the only person that could actually press charges in this case.
CNN really should have done better with this. There are so many other things that they could have reported on but instead they choose a reddit shitposter of all people to probe at. Sure, more ridiculous things have come out of media outlets, but CNN did not need something like this to happen considering that the POTUS and many of his supporters already dislike them. It's just throwing gasoline on the fire, and something is going to give in eventually.
