Tucker Carlson slammed CNN in his monologue Wednesday evening over their ‘grotesque’ targeting and blackmail of a private citizen who created a video that God forbid ‘offended’ CNN.
CNN reported Tuesday that they declined to publicly identify the Reddit user who created the Trump CNN wrestling video because he promised not to do it again.
CNN reporter Andrew Kaczynski then went on to say, “CNN reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change.”
That is extortion.
They threatened to dox him.
It turns out that CNN has targeted the wrong person! Analysis of the video shows evidence that the wrestling video President Trump posted to his Twitter account did not originate from this particular Reddit user.
Tucker Carlson torched CNN for their targeting of a private citizen for simply using his 1st Amendment rights.
Tucker: “This is oppo research posing as journalism. CNN is keeping this man’s name a secret because this man has apologized and promised he’ll never do it again. Wait a second? When did CNN become a law enforcement agency or a religious order? Since when is it CNN’s job to police the internet for morality? To spare punishment in return for repentance?
Tucker then called out CNN anchor, Chris Cuomo for a tweet he sent out threatening to release the identity of the Reddit user which of course he promptly deleted.
