To take this out of the 2020 thread.
For some background: The Young Turks (a widely watched YouTube channel) searched the personal Facebook and other social media of anyone who asked Bernie a tough question in a recent CNN Town Hall (in what looks like a search to dig up potential dirt on the questioners). In this search, they found that CNN did not properly reveal what their careers were and then posted screencaps of their Facebook profiles and other social media accounts on their Youtube show.
One of those was this young college student who asked about his response to sexual harassment issues in his campaign.

Sadly you are seeing a number of people online excuse the harassment/doxxing of this woman and the others who asked tough questions because it resulted in uncovering that CNN was not accurate in stating what their jobs are.
Bernie, to his credit, has called out his supporters acting out in this way and asked them to stop (which sadly does not seem to be working as this case shows).

"As we saw in the 2018 midterms the Democratic Party has become more female, more racially diverse and younger in age. How can a voter like me feel confident in your ability to represent the party especially given that your response to sexual harassment allegations during your campaign is that you were quote, 'a little bit busy running around the country trying to make the case to be elected as president'?" Nasab asked Sanders.
Moments after Nasab asked that question, FOX 5 learned that several threats online were directed toward her, which forced her to delete all of her social media accounts. We also confirmed that Nasab spoke with the American University Police Department shortly after.
