CNN reporter Jim Acosta took heat Thursday from conservatives on Twitter after the combative correspondent accused President Trump of holding a “fake news conference” -- and later spewed some "fake news" of his own when he claimed Trump misstated the number of intelligence agencies that concluded Russia meddled in the presidential election.
During a joint news conference with President Andrzej Duda in Poland, Trump took questions from reporters from The Daily Mail and MSNBC. But that apparently wasn’t good enough for Acosta, who’s no stranger to sparring with Trump and White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer.
“Trump finally held a news conference overseas. But he took a question from a friendly reporter and then attacked CNN as ‘fake news,’” Acosta tweeted, adding: “Isn’t it a ‘fake news conference’ to take a question from a reporter who is essentially an ally of the White House?”

Acosta has truly lost his mind. If CNN management had any brains they would remove him immediately from the White House beat. He is a continual embarrassment to that network.
Where was that question during the KKKlinton Regime? Where was that question during the Hussein 0bama Regime?
Well?
Jim?
Fake news media throwing a temper tantrum over its demotion.
They whine Trump doesn’t call on them. Good.
Fake reporters, fake journalists, fake slant on news, etc.
“Combative”. No a—ho-e.
You mean like 0bama did at ALL his pressers, Jim?
"This is CNN"
This Acosta kid is a real piece of work, a complete joke.
Don’t police departments remove people from cases if the person shows untoward emotional bias one way or the other? If neutrality is important, then you have to be mindful of who is put on which case.
CNN should definitely remove Acosta. He’s not at all interested in objectivity. He might as well wear a shirt which says, “I’m gonna get that guy!”
Wow, Jimbo, so then you must agree that ALL pressers by Democrat pols are “fake news conferences”.....
Glad we agree on something!
Since when is MS/LSD a "friendly" source???
How does a question like that feed a hungry child.(Ahem)
CNN had ditched the shovel they were using to dig their hole they were in and are now using a backhoe- pretty soon they will employ a massive excavator
keep spinning CNN- you’re losing credibility by the day- How about reporting actual news instead of being so blindly obsesses with trump that undermining your president’s presidency dominates your news day in and day out?
CNN is looking very pathetic. In just the last month, CNN was caught in 4 episodes of faking the news, misquoting past great Americans, overly inflated polls, journalists writing articles without validating the facts and CNN just keeps denying it and continuing to do it.
Can’t wait for CNN to burn to the ground, seriously NO ONE takes them seriously anymore they are a fraud network who has 100 percent allegiance to the Democrat Party..they COLLUDED with them, gave Clinton the questions in advance, they are such a sham and they know they are a sham they can’t stand the fact they worked for a YEAR to get that clown Clinton elected and they FAILED
“...later spewed some “fake news” of his own when he claimed Trump misstated the number of intelligence agencies that concluded Russia meddled in the presidential election.”
Does anyone know what Trump or this clown claimed? The correct answer is 2 (FBI and CIA). ODNI is a coordinator, not an intelligence agency per se; and, the NSA found the argument (the word “evidence” would exaggerate what they based their findings upon) inconclusive.
