Notorious never-Trump "journalist" Jim Acosta is leaving CNN, according to a new report.
Oliver Darcy's Status News was the first to report the news:
"The anchor, I’m told, signaled to associates in private conversations over the weekend that he intends to depart the network after its chief executive, Mark Thompson, booted him from the morning programming lineup — a move that conspicuously coincided with Donald Trump’s return to power.
"CNN brass, as we first reported earlier this month, decided to strip Acosta of his 10am show, which he has anchored to great ratings success over the last 11 months, at times even seeing higher viewership than programs in the channel’s prime time bloc. Acosta was instead offered the less-than-desirable option of anchoring a show from midnight until 2am ET. CNN pitched the gig to Acosta as anchoring during prime time on the West Coast and said he could move to Los Angeles to host the program. But the reality is the program would have aired at a time in which cable news viewership is at its lowest levels."

It’s a shame when you think you are somebody’s arch nemesis and instead of being Lex Luthor you find out you are The Toyman.
HA HA !
MXYZPTLK................
Maybe he and don Lemmon can start a podcast....they can have Norah O’Donnell on as first guest 🤣🤣🤣
Darn what a shame.
“great ratings success”??? wtf?
Jim Acosta drizzled away all his good will and charisma long ago. He had become a dreary, disillusioned drudge and parasite with no skills save extreme invective and a dark view of the world.
May he wander the streets with the homeless and forgotten the remainder of his days.
Who remembers Keith Olbermann?
“Jim Acosta is OUT at CNN: report”
Eight years too late.
T.P. Acosta. Crawl under the rock from whence you came.
Roll the clip of Selena Gomez crying. One of her “people” has been dumped by CNN.
No loss, probably a major positive for CNN. Guy is a whining Leftist activist, not a journalist.
A specialized kind of SCUM!
WINNING!
So much WINNING!
Too much WINNING!
Mr. President, we have too much WINNING!
Coming soon: “Abiliooooo! The Podcast.”
The “media” is going to need him now that they are going ape**** presenting sob stories about Gomez’s people many of which are working on the cures for cancer as college perfesers and “immigration lawyers.”
AMF!
Bye bye. Maybe he can get a job as a token male on The View.
A better job for him would pearl diving at a greasy spoon truck stop.
