Revealing the identity of someone who posted a tweet isn't a crime. It may be shitty (and pathetic) for an international news organization to use it as a threat to intimidate someone into not mocking them, but as far as I understand, you wouldn't really be able to sue them for it (well, you can sue anyone for anything, but I doubt you'd win that lawsuit).
What's even sadder is that people have to be worry about being publicly exposed as a Trump supporter. It's not like the guy posted an ISIS video or something... It was just a funny clip of Trump wrestling, with the CNN logo as his opponent... and yet, he was worried he'd lose his job if CNN exposed him. Basically for no other reason than being a Trump supporter. Everyone knows the excuse that "it promotes violence" is bullshit. It's cartoon violence, and it's obviously meant to be funny. It's not calling for someone to throw a brick through a window at CNN headquarters, like BLM did.
Could he not sue like wtf
Sounds like a payday for me and you are spending rest of your life on the beach in Hawaii posting memes
There's a hotdog stand I read people talk about in Hawaii
