…and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room.

I know some of my friends in the White House press corps will say, ‘Hang on a second, how are we supposed to cover this guy?’ I understand—it’s difficult if we’re not there. But for a moment, let the American people see this image: an aspiring autocrat in the Oval Office, surrounded only by his propaganda outlets and right-wing hacks. That’s not a good look for him.

And I’ll tell you something else about Donald Trump—he cares about having those cameras on him more than almost anything else in the world. If the press were to take those cameras away for a day or two, I think he’d quickly reconsider this idea of kicking the Associated Press out.

“Propaganda outlets”. Hahahaha my sides...

That’s what the legacy media has been for the last 100 years.

Acosta, Olbermann, Todd...the three stooges of irrelevant podcasts that nobody watches or listens to.

Left wing nut from Left wing nut media.
NOT a word from this guy about government corruption, only bashes Trump.

I hope AP, Reuters, BBC, and all of the other media and journ-o-lists don’t cover Trump and sit at home wringing their hands about not getting taxpayer bailout money to sing the praises of liberals. Accepting taxpayer money for political posturing is disgusting, isn’t free speech, doesn’t support democracy, and they own it.

Go ahead Jim Acosta, lets talk about the ‘look’ it sends.

I remember being told that I have freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach. They said it and smirked as they censored us.

So AP, you have freedom of the press, but not freedom to access the president. You are still free to print what you want.

Jim Acosta
During the 2020 White House SARS-2-CoV / COVID-19 press conferences, Dr. Fauci spent at least 50% of his time, speaking directly to Jim Acosta. Fauci always slaved around to Jim Acosta.

The White House should offer him a press pass and then take it away when he shows up.

Go for it, WH press briefing room admission is not a legal matter, but please oh please go for it. Imagine the lawsuits can go both ways after years of slanderous AP articles

If these wing-nut media outlets stopped covering Trump, they’d have nothing to report on and their readers, listeners, watchers; would just stop tuning in.
