I think that this is a thinly-veiled attempt from a major media corporation to incite harassment against a citizen. If they thought the person responsible was a Russian agent and discovered that he wasn't, the story should have stopped there. The fact that they pushed ahead anyways with a clearly defamatory intent behind a "story" that had no reason to be written makes it pretty obvious that they're putting it out there for the sole purpose of trying to intimidate him.@It's HK-47 what do you think of the people defending or supporting Kevin Poulsen, like this guy, or the others in my previous post?
They could have framed the story around how the source of the video had nothing to do with Russia, as Pelosi had claimed. They could have centered it around the video not being sourced by a Republican Super PAC or any other foreign entity trying to interfere with public opinion, but they didn't. They just sat down to make an example out of a normal, everyday American citizen for slowing down a YouTube video. You can't criticize a Democratic Presidential candidate over lying about her heritage, you can't report on a journalist's class at NYU being cancelled because only two people showed up, but if you target a guy for posting a Facebook video then journalists will line up to pat you on the ass.
If I was this man, I'd want that journalist's head on a pike.
