On Friday, The New York Press Club announced the recipient of their “Truth to Power” award: CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta. The award honors “an individual whose body of work challenges the power establishment and/or defends journalists,” as The Wrap reported.

In the press release accompanying the announcement, Jane Tillman Irving, president of the Press Club, stated, “We are proud to honor a man such as Jim Acosta, who has proven himself throughout his storied, decades-long career to be a journalist of the utmost integrity. For his unwavering commitment to fact and journalism, we are pleased to add to Jim’s many accolades with the Gabe Pressman 'Truth to Power' award." CNN promoted Acosta to chief White House correspondent in January 2018.

‘Truth To Power’ Uh, anyone? Bueller? WTF is that supposed to mean anyway? Just some made up lib bs to make someone feel more awesomer than others? Too bad the young lady didn’t pop him the nose. But I’m sure he supports femine causes and abhors domestic violence against women. He should have been escorted from the room.

and how O’Bambi was gifted the Nobel Peace prize.

I agree.

It says everything you need to know about the NY Press Club and the lamebrain media.

The reality is that Trump is the one who has been speaking truth to power.

That's the old Truth you're thinking of - the feeling now is to use the new Truth, which can be whatever furthers Satan's plans

These awards programs have destroyed themselves with the types of behaviors they reward.

Acosta was lying disrespectful jerk.

Okay then, let’s trot out an award for him...

Our society is crumbling. How much longer are we going to have patience with this?

This is the same tactic they always do.

When one of their own is exposed as a hack, they give them awards. When Rather was exposed pushing fake documents they gave him an award afterwards.
