Much ado has been made of the mainstream media, of late. Their honesty has been questioned...but are we being honest with ourselves? Your tirade, for example..was launched by what you watched on youtube from an "independent" source. It has the odious distinction of being verifiably and absolutely untrue. Did CNN dox someone? No. Did they threaten or try to? No. What did they do? They sniffed out the source of something the president of these united fucking states saw fit to tweet - and those...if you'll recall from the white house press office...are to be considered official communiques from potus....
What did they find? A troll who unequivocally apologized for pretty much everything he'd ever posted online, desperately hoping that people would believe him when he said he wasn't "that kind of person".
What, exactly, are you expecting..and what do you think you're getting from the alternatives with even smaller-than-cable (read: nonexistent) budgets? Judging from the OP, it's nothing to write home about. I;'ll take the crescent news network all day erryday over that noise.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom.

Lol what? They literally said, "we have his information, we were going to release it but he apologized. But if he recants his apology we're going to do it." Find the CNN Politics article, I'm in mobile. You wouldn't call that a threat?

What? CNN threatened to release that guys information and it was on their site.
Their honesty has been destroyed lately and it's true everything i have posted is.
He apologized only because they threatened to release his personal information to the public in that being said CNN broke the law.
CNN broke the law when it comes to coercion. I'll take my independent media at least i am not getting propaganda thrown at me.
I watch CNN they do have good news when they want to have good news.

I only watched CNN because of Anderson Cooper. He's hot.

You mean he didn't apoligize for all the reasons he claimed to have? Namely, that he was not a totally batshit anti-semite and just played that shit up for reddit and hopes that others see him as a cautionary tale in how -not- to act online? Gee, he was so convincing, though.
Time for some sober self appraisal. This was pretext for you bitching about dishonesty and propaganda in the media, because the story itself was over before it broke...but -what- dishonesty and propaganda? That's what you have a problem with, not some thing that CNN didn't actually do. As far as I've gathered, it has something to do with Slick Willy ruining the news and you not liking Maddow. Jesus...fucking...christ.........

This is happening to most every cable news outlet, when did issues like these start to matter? Also as well, did this happen because of Gawker?
