CNN's Acosta calls for Trump to halt media attacks

NEW YORK (AP) - CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta says President Donald Trump's attacks on the media must stop or there's a risk someone will get hurt.
Acosta is one of the most visible members of the press corps covering Trump and a target for verbal abuse at the president's rallies.
He said Monday that Trump has, in Acosta's words, "normalized and sanitized nastiness and cruelty" in an unprecedented way.
The White House didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
Acosta and others at a CNN-sponsored conference talked about dealing with the president's untruths.
Former Watergate sleuth Carl Bernstein said the press has to be more than Trump's lie-catchers.

When the lying liberal media starts crying for a cease fire, it’s time to put your boot on their neck and crush ‘em!

The media can dish it out, but they can’t take it. The difference between the media’s rhetoric, and President Trump’s comments, is that Trump’s are at least true!!

The media drew first blood. The media continues to draw blood every day. And they want their target to not complain and do not strike back.

Here’s a thought: Just report the news accurately and fairly ... and see if Trump attacks you.
Bet he won’t.

If Acosta is really worried about someone getting seriously hurt, he, the MSM, Maxine and the rest of his Dem buddies should start calling out Antifa, BLM, and the rest of the Dem assault gangs to stop their assaults on Republicans. But, of course he doesn’t want that. He’s just trying to make low info folks think it’s Trump and deranged Republicans that is causing the real danger.
