How CNN found the Reddit user behind the Trump wrestling GIF
http://www.cnn.com/2017/07/04/politics/kfile-reddit-user-trump-tweet/index.html
After posting his apology, "HanA**holeSolo" called CNN's KFile
and confirmed his identity. In the interview, "HanA**holeSolo"
sounded nervous about his identity being revealed and asked to
not be named out of fear for his personal safety and for the
public embarrassment it would bring to him and his family. CNN
is not publishing "HanA**holeSolo's" name because he is a
private citizen who has issued an extensive statement of
apology, showed his remorse by saying he has taken down all his
offending posts, and because he said he is not going to repeat
this ugly behavior on social media again. In addition, he said
his statement could serve as an example to others not to do the
same. CNN reserves the right to publish his identity should any
of that change.
