In normal, sane, sober circles, if you are attacked verbally, the first thing you should do before you open your mouth, is to ascertain the veracity of the accusation or criticism.

They will never, ever, ever do that.

Ever.

I agree with Acosta...

I don't. It's a dog whistle to the Antifa scum. Acosta gets wound up every time one of his colleagues gets body slammed to the carpet.

Another Little Jimmy Pee Pee Pants Acosta toddler tantrum. Maybe if Little PeePee Pants didn’t lie all the time, the public would have more respect for “journalism.”

Acosta, what has been provided and criticized, hasn’t been journalism.

If you need a slow talking person to explain it to you, we can hook you up.

So, lying, making up stories, faking isn’t “resisting”...

They are resisting the truth, for sure.

“Journalism” is not being attacked, lying partisan hack propagandists for the democrats, pretending to be unbiased, is being attacked, and rightfully so.
You people have been democrat apologists since you became the Clinton News Network - under BILL’s term in office.

Just what I was thinking. They are no longer the “press” the first amendment protects. They are the Goebbels of the democrap party. Just propaganda, and should be treated as such. They don’t know what these admissions set them up for with these statements of truth. They are giving up their press protection.

CNN wouldn’t know journalism if it rolled up and smacked them on the nose.

They are on the TV 24/7. What more do they want?

Go ahead, resist. CNN is doing that anyways.

Of course, it helps if you have ratings...

I have been led to believe that Acosta thinks CNN and other NEWS outlets have been unfairly criticized for fake news.

He’s led to believe anything these NEWS organizations say is protected. It isn’t. If it’s demonstrably untrue, it’s fair game.

His defense of ‘Journalism’ rings hollow with me.

“Journalism doesn’t happen at CNN!”

Hey Jim, there is no journalism at CNN. They are nothing but an advocate for the DNC.

LOL. My son requested one of those t-shirts when he saw Walmart was pulling them.

The public is resisting the Ministry of Propaganda, that’s what really puts their knickers in a twist.

Criticizing bad journalism is not the same as attacking Journalism. Just as criticizing junk-science is not the same as attacking Science. Just as criticizing hypocritical attempts to appear virtuous is not attacking Virtue.

In all these cases its almost the opposite.

Why, Jim? Do you consider yourself a “journalist”? Nobody else does.
