Even the Mets perform better than Acosta.

Why is this getting so much attention?

Because the News doesn't have any other story at the moment to attempt bashing Trump with? Just like illegals had been being separated adult/kids for years, but it only recently became an issue in order to smear Trump.

That's my guess, anyways.

“We should not treat our fellow Americans this way.”

What did Jim say about Conservatives being screamed at while trying to dine out? Has he commented on Mad Maxine saying Conservatives should be harassed? Was it okay when Zero said ‘get in their faces’?

Or is that the America that’s okay with Jim Acosta?

Just a sample of the sad scene we faced at the Trump rally in Tampa. I’m very worried that the hostility whipped up by Trump and some in conservative media will result in somebody getting hurt. We should not treat our fellow Americans this way. The press is not the enemy. pic.twitter.com/IhSRw5Ui3R— Jim Acosta (@Acosta) August 1, 2018

A nd where it the bleeding heart concern when pols like Maxine Waters advocates for violence against Trump supporters?

You are such a hypocrite.

I wish someone would call him out on that on Facebook.

“The press is a gang of cruel faggots. Journalism is not a profession or a trade. It is a cheap catch-all for fuckoffs and misfits—a false doorway to the backside of life, a filthy piss-ridden little hole nailed off by the building inspector, but just deep enough for a wino to curl up from the sidewalk and masturbate like a chimp in a zoo-cage.”

Jim Acosta doesn’t get to tell POTUS and Sara Sanders, etc., what they need to say.

I just hope he steps into something VERY big, VERY soon, and CNN cannot rescue his despicable ass.

Much gloating would be in order, if he were to be fired and shamed. Maybe someone can find some racist or homophobic, etc., tweets he sent out when he was 12....

If they stopped televising these briefings, better than half of all those White House “reporters” would ask for other assignments that would give them more TV time - PERIOD!

Or, the only time these particular people would actually be IN a briefing is when the President or a Cabinet member was present, otherwise, they would send some stenographer to these daily meetings!

I would bet my monthly paycheck on it!!

They only ask gotcha questions in hopes of creating news about answers.

"Mr. President, do you wear red ties because Putin orders you to do it?"

Yeah, the stupid questions they ask are all confrontational and downright silly. Toss out the trouble-maker reporters and revoke their credentials, until they can ask grown-up serious questions that people want reported. Wish someone would shove his mike up Acosta's rear, but he would probably like it.

Again: Cameras need to be taken out of the WH press briefings per the original proposal by McCurry (Clinton press sec'y) & Fleischer (Bush press sec'y). The only news emerging from these briefings involves confrontation and almost nothing involving substance. This is all a show.

Concha is exactly right...

This would be a perfect move to take the drama out of the briefings.

He is now working for AT&T

We can wonder if ATT&T will tolerate the antiAmerican Accosta. The image being tarnished is not the already black image of CNN but the shiny image of AT&T
