Hopefully this teaches a lesson that you can't just post any crepe you want on the Internet.

CNN is in the wrong here. This is a blatant infringement on the First Amendment and threatening a U. S. citizen is wrong and should be punishable. And CNN will be completely dead by the end of the year of they continue to do things like this, threatening citizens with blackmail.

And it's OK with you that CNN can invade your privacy anytime they want ? Who are the arrogant narcissists again ?

I'm not sure to what lengths they went, it sounds like they pieced together the information that the user posted publicly, so anyone reasonably could have figured it out. But they didn't name him, however holding it over his head is really crossing the line. CNN is not the Internet police!

Freedom of speech wins.

I'm nothing if not a free speech extremist, but freedom of speech is not freedom from repercussions. Speak your mind but be ready to back it up or you can be humiliated. I'm just curious as to what the above reactions would be should it have been someone who made a doctored video of Trump getting beat?

I think it's similar enough... there will be a lot of backlash from Trump supporters.

Yeah. :) I kinda wish SHE had stood up for herself a little more. Anyway, there's a good reason why those on the political far right are called reactionaries.

NOW THE USER IS APOLOGIZING, WRITING IN A LENGTHY POST ON REDDIT THAT HE DOES NOT ADVOCATE VIOLENCE AGAINST THE PRESS AND EXPRESSING REMORSE THERE AND IN AN INTERVIEW WITH CNN FOR OTHER POSTS HE MADE THAT WERE RACIST AND ANTI-SEMITIC. THE APOLOGY CAME AFTER CNN'S KFILE IDENTIFIED THE MAN BEHIND "HANA**HOLESOLO." USING IDENTIFYING INFORMATION THAT "HANA**HOLESOLO" POSTED ON REDDIT, KFILE WAS ABLE TO DETERMINE KEY BIOGRAPHICAL DETAILS, TO FIND THE MAN'S NAME USING A FACEBOOK SEARCH AND ULTIMATELY CORROBORATE DETAILS HE HAD MADE AVAILABLE ON REDDIT.
