CNN Announces Major Changes For Jim Acosta, Other Programming
dailycaller ^ | 01/11/2021 | Shelby Talcott

CNN’s chief White House correspondent Jim Acosta is becoming an anchor, the network announced in a press release Monday.

Acosta has become well-known throughout President Donald Trump’s time in office, in part for his consistent swipes at the president and administration. He briefly had his press credentials revoked by the White House in 2018, prompting a lawsuit from CNN.

CNN knows they can't have Acosta berate Biden as he did Trump and it would be so obvious that they had no choice but to move him. Sounds like this is a demotion to me.

Re the wheels back on the Democrat bus? Going to be fun seeing the bodies pile up under there. Too many know too much.

So, the message from CNN is:

Act like a total, slimey douche? Get promoted.

Par for the leftist media course, I’d say.

I don’t see it as a promotion rather they are hiding Acosta and I’ll bet he is gone within a few months. No way they could ever let him in the WH again because the facade CNN portrayed would be even more open.

So, who at CNN will have to fight with the MSNBC White House correspondent for the chance to give Joe Biden his daily tongue bath?

John Roberts on Fox now has a show from 1-3. He’s Fox’s Jim Acosta. Both hate Trump so of course they can’t cover Biden.

Acosta's desk should be inside the newsroom men's room.

Anchors make a whole lot more $$$$ than ‘correspondents’.

Maybe the message fromm CNN is that they realize how unbalanced, mentally, Acosta is and are afraid he will do to Joe(of course only once)that he has done to Trump for four years. Then again I bet it wll be rare event for Biden to speak to the press before he resigns for the good of Kamala.

Seems CNN does not want a record of the differences between the President and the -resident.

It would show a disparity, jmho.

You are right.

Actually, it is a smart move on CNN's part. The left loves Acosta and it will serve to solidify their already dismal ratings.

He has always been an anchor but both he and CNN were too stupid to recognize the obvious.

CNN might have caught on that the casual viewer might be curious about the tongue baths he was giving in the WH briefing room.

I assume he’ll have more time for coding classes now. CNN will be cost-cutting pretty soon.
