A former CNN producer criticized White House correspondent Jim Acosta on Friday for blaming the deadly shooting at the Capital Gazette newspaper on President Donald Trump. President Trump addressed the shooting at an event celebrating the six-month anniversary of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and described the deadly attack as one that “filled our hearts with grief.”

“This attack shocked the conscience of our nation and filled our hearts with grief. Journalists, like all Americans, should be free from the fear of being violently attacked while doing their job,” President Trump said.

”Journalists, like all Americans, should be free from the fear of being violently attacked while doing their jobs. To the families of the victims there are no words to express our sorrow for your loss. Horrible, horrible event. Horrible thing happened,” he added.

The comments prompted Acosta to shout, “Will you stop calling the press the enemy of the people?”

The President did not respond.

Sam Donaldson made a career of being a horse’s ass during the Reagan years. He would be a smug, abusive bastard one minute and pull back into his “Aww shucks” mode if the Gipper engaged him.” Acosta is just a worm and a puke from the get go.

Anybody else notice that the media, left and right, are always more morose when a journalist gets killed.

Meanwhile the Pulse shooter (who frequented the place) did it because of his opposition to Obama’s drone strike policy in the middle east and President Obama and the media blamed it on Christian opposition to same-sex marriage.

They are the enemy of the people. They are liberally biased and willfully lie. They are scumbags.

Most journalist are orders of magnitude better than any of them at CNN. They have truly got the worst of the worst.

We have enough lawyer jokes. What about some jokes about journalists and the media?

I certainly hope not. They ARE the enemy of the people.

The press still has power, and they abuse the hell out of it.
