If Acosta crossed the line, it was with his constant interrupting of the press conference and acting so belligerent when the President wanted to call on someone else. But they are blaming it on putting his hands on a woman? And then Huckabee Sanders retweets a doctored video to defend the ban? Now that is fake news.


u trusted CNN fake news and FAILED :(

no DoCtOrEd videos here :(

been saying for years Brazilian jujitsu and judo should be mandatory for all officers. we'd see unarmed shootings plummet. even a 1 pointer greco roman throw can handle most perps.

Yep, Trump is the worst to the press. He's been using federal entities to investigate and intimidate them and everything.......... Please learn recent history.

Thing is, he's not wrong about how terrible the media/press has become in recent years. Sometimes I feel his presidential victory was merely a "fuck you" from Americans to the collective media.

Trump's problem is how poorly he handles it. He seems to think he's a higher level Reagan and that he can bull-in-a-China-shop his way through any dilemma. His incendiary statements merely strengthen his opponents' resolve, feed them ammunition, and sometimes come back to hit him. In other words, he's kind of an egotistical idiot.

Weird how all those nu-feminists who stood behind Blasey Ford and Mattress Girl and Anita Sarkeesian won't defend the white house intern who was just trying to do her job

If Acosta wasn't a nu-male he would've cleared some space, NBA style.

Tbh it wasn't that big of a deal. Yes, Acosta is a major douche, and yes, they blew it out of proportion with their video editing. It's classic political smear shenanigans.
