Real conviction, the kind that brings about change, often requires sacrifices. Not suggesting that HanAssholeSolo would sacrifice his family, but he should have taken steps to ensure their safety without caving to CNN. Had that been me, Id have informed my family to stay armed and called a lawyer.

Real strategy, the kind that brings about change, often requires tactical retreat in order to have the maximum beneficial effect upon the larger war.

That may be true, but not apt in this case.. He had a unique opportunity to draw out CNN into a battle of litigation should they have dared to act on their threats. Instead he has effectively disarmed himself for any future engagement with CNN by apologizing.
