Reddit Furious With CNN For Going After Reddit User Over Trump Wrestling Meme
Check out the video at the linked site for some fun memes. The Reddit guys all identify with the guy CNN tried to blackmail, so they were not at all happy.
Quote:This has grown into a major point of contention within the Reddit community, and currently the top comments attached to CNN’s article — numbering more than 21,000 at the time of publication — are trashing the embattled news outlet.
One of the top comments, written by user “Riff_Randell“, encapsulated the sentiments of many in the reddit community.
“If CNN is so adamantly against Trump’s fear mongering tactics, why would they do the same and deliberately scare the **** out of this dude and his stupid wrestling meme? I mean, does anyone really think this meme was meant to incite violence against the media? It’s wrestling. A fake sport. Seriously, this is beyond nuts.”
Another Redditor “Arntor1184” elaborated further, “This is totally CNN trying to flex it’s muscle on some lowlife Reddit troll in some weird attempt to discourage future trolls and it disgusts me to no end. This is the kind of shitt that should be sounding off alarm bells in the public’s head. Where does a multi billion dollar media conglomerate get off funding a witch hunt on a private citizen for being mean to them.”

Usually, the new memes are never better than the original. But I got to hand it to them. They keep stepping it up a notch with every new batch that comes out.

Trump broke CNN. In a way it's been rather enlightening to learn how deep the rabbit hole goes with respect to the media.

Cable network ratings. CNN is 13th. Has to really make the CNN liars sick to see MSNBC in second.

They call out other subreddits racism and given that TD tolerated this guy, clearly they have a point.

Nick At Night is not even on Suddenlink's lineup.
I posted on CNN's news article about this on Facebook that they were reporting wrong things about Reddit. Some of the people on there was saying Reddit is allowing this, and created by hate groups. That is not true. Reddit would banned those type of people who post those things. Plus, Reddit did not create these subreddits. It is the users who created it like Yahoo users create groups on their sites.

How many Bernie supporters have been involved in violent incidents of late? are you ready to tie him to the guy who shot up the congressional baseball practice?
There are racist supporting everyone and the fact that "sooner or later" CNN was gonna "find something on trump" kind of confirms the narrative that as a news organization they are not to be taken seriously.

I guess he's finally done this time. Keep digging LOL. I bet one of his RTs came from someone that has been to Russia too.

You still haven't disavowed Linda Sarsour's jihad or the radical left-wing terrorists that threatened to kill Senators in AZ and IA.
