That Reddit poster sounds like a coward ,stand by what you post or say or don't post it all.
Agreed, but since he's a reddit user, I wonder if he was merely trolling. I don't know, because I never really paid attention to this apparently newsworthy story; it just seems so stupid. -
I haven't been following it that closely, but didn't CNN just get exposed for putting out fake trump/Russia information for ratings or something?
-
^^^ Yeah, I think so. It wasn't really an expose as much as it was just a firsthand confirmation of what we already knew.

CNN foul for this dumb ?

http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/trump-jr-hanassholesolo-reddit-meme-maker-cnnDonald Trump Jr. Defends Reddit Meme Creator After CNN Report
Donald Trump Jr. spent Independence Day weekend going on a tear against CNN for the network’s report on a Reddit user who took credit for editing a clip of President Donald Trump punching somebody with a CNN logo superimposed over their face.
“It was only a matter of time,” Trump Jr. tweeted after CNN reporters cited the Anti-Defamation League’s statement accusing the creator of the meme of anti-Semitism and racism.
Trump Jr. also claimed the creator, Reddit user “HanAssholeSolo,” was 15 years old. CNN KFILE reporter Andrew Kaczynski pushed back on that allegation.
Trump Jr. continued to tweet about the report on Wednesday with the hashtag #CNNBlackmail.
He was undeterred by “HanAssholeSolo”‘s reported remarks to the contrary.
In its original report, CNN cited “HanAssholeSolo”‘s other Reddit posts, “some of which included racist and anti-Semitic imagery.”
“HanAssholeSolo” later deleted his other posts and published an apology on Reddit’s Donald Trump subforum.

Half the ? in here agree with trump jr.
Defending a middle aged racist cac and being mad at the people exposing him. -
CNN didn't go after the guy because he's a racist anti Semite. They had no idea what type of person he was before they hacked his ip. Their propaganda machine is strong. His posting all that garbage was a bonus for CNN but make no mistake, it had nothing to do with their motives.

? him. I hope he dies.
I don't give 1 ? about a racist. -
Let them all self destruct. Nothing to see here.

Hilarious. Just because people say CNN is wrong (and they were) doesn't mean the guy is off the hook. Everything isn't always either or. The world is a complex place. Deal with it.

"It was just a stupid meme" -
I'm definitely not mad about some bigot being exposed to the light and then doing the P.C. back-pedal, they all do that. I just think that the Neocons will hold this guy up as a 1st Amendment victim or "fake news" casualty, a martyr for the alt-right who stood up against the system. Seems like they're already trying to so now...
