CNN’s senior White House correspondent Jim Acosta called on reporters to “resist” when they are attacked at a Monday journalism summit in Washington, D.C.

Acosta pointed out that while journalists are not members of the “resistance,” they should still “stand up” when the institution of journalism is being attacked.

“We are not part of ‘the Resistance’ but … if journalism is attacked, we should resist. That is up to us,” Acosta reportedly told those gathered at the Poynter Ethics Summit. The conference gathered Washington correspondents and other editors to speak on how to report in an era where trust in the media has declined.

“I think these are all just American principles that we are allowed to push back on in our work,” Acosta added.

Resistor:

A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. In electronic circuits, resistors are used to reduce current flow, adjust signal levels, to divide voltages, bias active elements, and terminate transmission lines, among other uses.

The attack on journalism comes from its own lies and deceptions.
