As we told you earlier, media vultures using hacked data to go after Freedom Convoy donors has been even too much for lefty Rep. Ilhan Omar, who called it “unconscionable.” However, reporters continue to get in on the act, including a political reporter with the St. Louis Tribune:
EXCLUSIVE: The Salt Lake Tribune is now using the GiveSendGo hacked data to reach out to donors who gave as little as $50. This is harassment. This is not journalism. pic.twitter.com/wbeN193eDJ

The reporter says some donors’ responses have been “aggressive” (as if using hacked data to contact a person who donated a few bucks to the protesters isn’t), and he’s obviously getting some other blowback:
I've been reaching out to people from Utah who appeared on the leaked Canadian trucker donation data.
Hoo boy!
Some of the replies have been…aggressive to put it mildly.

Update:
Since I've been doing this, several people have come to the conclusion I'm being funded by George Soros somehow.
If that's true, it does not pay very well at all. https://t.co/zJZVaLY1sb

Trump was right about the media, even if they don’t realize it.

Even though Twitter’s terms of service prohibit stories based on information that was obtained by hackers, the social media outlet doesn’t seem to have a big problem with this one.
I gave $20 to a homeless guy because he said he was hungry. He might have bought crack with it. Need his contact info?

In other words….I'm harassing people and the people I'm harassing aren't taking it very well https://t.co/jthT9EBwwY

Imagine being surprised by that.
so weird that people would be hostile to someone who harasses them for their charitable giving to a peaceful protest. https://t.co/5GOKXZ8WOH

As their replies should be, leave them alone

This is all about intimidation.
The media doesn't want you to fund things like this.
So they put you on blast so you're afraid to do it again.
