Jim Acosta: If The President Calls us Fake News, Do We Just Take It?
Washington Free Bacon ^ | 11/21/2017 | Conor Beck

Posted on 11/21/2017 9:39:26 PM PST by ForYourChildren

On CNN's "Twitter & Trump" special Tuesday night, CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta recounted his Wikipedia page being vandalized after being called "fake news" by President Donald Trump.

"The President of the United States called me fake news and on the day he called me fake news, somebody went on my Wikipedia page and changed my Wikipedia page to say that I had died that day, that I had died on January 11, 2017," Acosta said.

"Really," host Bill Weir flatly replied.

"That had to be taken down. I turned off my Twitter notifications because it became sort of this open sewer of hatred and contempt," Acosta said.

"I didn't choose for that to happen," Acosta continued. "But here's the question, Bill. What do we do about this? If the president calls us fake news do we just take it? Do we not say anything?"

I agree. Now that you mentioned Hillary, that killed my vibe.

RE Fake News:

I posted earlier today that Brooke Baldwin on CNN said “We now have a President who supports an accused child molester.”

No accountability. Total trash.

... do we just take it? Do we not say anything?

How does it feel to have the tables turned on you, Jim Acosta? Huh, huh? For those lib jerks in the MSM, you now understand why President Trump doesn't just take abuse from you, and why he tweets back.

Jim is dead! Ha!

My brother, who was raised as Texan as I was, speaks with Valley girl uptalk. It makes me want to choke him.

From a pro Acosta article (Politico) that I’ll link:
“ ...for Acosta, 46, disdain delivered with a theatrical flourish has become something of a signature in the nine months of the Trump administration.”
https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/09/21/jim-acosta-cnn-white-house-trump-favorite-reporter-215628

So he flourishes his disdain for the sitting president and whimpers when the president points out his lack of professionalism?

If I spoke with an uptalk I would work to break the habit. I can't stand it. It isn't normal.

Like a punk b!tch.

I’d much rather have Trump round-up you traitorous pieces of sh!t and put you in front of a firing squad. But I’m a softy that way.

ROTFLOL

Well, that article was worth a laugh. All MSM is “fake news”—and to top it off, Wikipedia is also rather fake, if not very warped “facts” on SO MANY things. Guess they just copy whatever the Fake News says is “truth” and copy all the textbooks which were written by the Marxists.

Solzhenitsyn stated our “free press” was worse than Pravda.....and that was in 1978 at the Harvard commencement address. But then, he knew that Truth is more hated than lies. The masses want the lies, since they can’t handle the Truth. It is easier to be a slave, than free.

To me, uptalk comes off as someone who needs reaffirmation after every sentence. Insecure and emotionally needy.
