Although former CNN anchor Jim Acosta has called for reporters to protest the punitive action against AP by boycotting the White House via his Substack, there have been few signs of the press banding together from major news organizations. . . “We’re seeing no resistance,” Jarvis said. “Shouldn’t journalists stand up for each other? I think the strongest action would be for the entire decent press corps to walk out of the press room.”

Embattled CNN anchor Jim Acosta announced Tuesday that he is leaving the network — and took a parting shot at the Trump administration by urging viewers not to “give in to the lies” in a final on-air rant.Acosta, a former White House correspondent at CNN who often butted heads with President Trump during his first term, was reportedly slated to be relegated to the graveyard shift from his current morning slot.“You may have seen some reports about me and this show. And after giving all of this some careful consideration and weighing an alternative time slot CNN offered me, I...

We knew this announcement was coming for days: CNN’s Jim Acosta is no longer with the network. The notable anti-Trump reporter and host was not keen on being relegated to the graveyard shift. Acosta would helm an anchor’s desk between midnight and two in the morning. I don’t see the problem, as the ratings likely would’ve been the same. Still, the man is making for the exits, so we won’t have these epic showdowns that often lit up social media.

Tim Burchett (R-TN) appeared as a guest on Acosta’s eponymous show CNN Newsroom with Jim Acosta Wednesday to discuss the J6 pardons issued by President Trump on Monday. Unsurprisingly, Acosta was in a foul mood as he sought to force Burchett into condemning Trump for freeing over 1,500 political prisoners held hostage by the Biden regime. “I just want to ask you if any of these people who were released from prison,...

"Jim Acosta: "This is this is not Fox, congressman. You can't just spin a tale and pull the wool over people's eyes. This is CNN. This is the news. We are asking you to come on and tell the truth." Tim Burchett: "And that's why more people are watching the Cartoon Network, SpongeBob reruns right now. Jim, look, I left the White House during a riot. My life was threatened. My life has been threatened within the last few weeks, yet there's no coverage of that. And you all continue this, this narrative of attacking Trump. You just can't stand...

Current and former CNN staffers are slamming reports that the network is trying to “sideline” anchor Jim Acosta in order to “appease” President-elect Donald Trump.

And I’m...

Acosta said, “Former President Trump was at Arlington National Cemetery, where he marked the three-year anniversary of the bombing that killed 13 service members during the Afghanistan withdrawal.

Former Acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf debates the existence of measurable levels of election fraud with CNN's Jim Acosta. "Any type of election fraud should be addressed," Wolf said. "I don't think we should say there was just a little bit of fraud, so it is OK." "There is fraud in our election system. If people don't acknowledge that, that becomes part of the problem," Wolf said. Acosta replied: "You were the former acting secretary of homeland security and you’re spreading doubt and fear about our election process."

CNN’s Jim Acosta got into a heated exchange with a National Rifle Association (NRA) board member on Sunday afternoon over actions to counter gun violence following last week’s mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas. “I’m 51 years old,” Acosta said. “This has been going on for decades, and it just seems to me that the NRA just has to look into its soul.” “I’m sorry to say it that way, sir, but you and your other board members need to look into your souls and see what can be done for these kids. These kids who keep dying over and over...
