News company investigates the newsand accepts the person involved's request for anonymity

I think it's the bit at the end of the statement...“CNN reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change.”

sounds like a reasonable caveatif the person they're talking about goes back on their statement, CNN can go back on theirs

no, for a news companyif the story escalates they reserve the right to report it fully. Like if the person changed their mind and went public themselves.
Unless there's something more I'm not seeing how this is evil or blackmailing, especially compared to the more direct "we're printing this story so you might as well give us everything" tactic that you hear about from all the other papers/channels
