CNN's morning crew ripped the "privilege" of setting up a CEO hotline amid the murder of Brian Thompson while ordinary people get no such consideration.
KASIE HUNT: And even now we’re just seeing this like the backpack maker is getting threats for– the CEO of of Peak Design because they helped identify the shooter.
Aw man what the fuck? I’ve had a peak design backpack for nearly a decade, and it’s bar none the BEST everyday commuting backpack I’ve ever owned… and this makes me not want to buy their shit anymore.
Edit: on further investigation it sounds like the whole PD CEO thing is likely make up of whole cloth and not real
Yeah - fair, I didn’t look into corroboration of that statement. Sounds like people just scoped the backpack (as did I, almost immediately) and perhaps just spun some yarn. The Peak Design CEO gave a relatively reasonable conservative (in terms of the context - not politically, per se) of “murder bad but I would call the legal counsel we have on retainer before doing anything, if I had been asked for anything, which I have not”

Yeah, they said there was no identifiable serial number on those bags. This was just a hoax.
It’s false.
