Jim Acosta - StLucieBengal - 08-14-2017 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4790330/amp/You-fake-news-Trump-slams-CNN-reporter-Jim-Acosta.html What is wrong with this clown? He is the worst type of grandstander since David Gregory. Every time this guy gets a question at three legit questions could be asked by serious journalists trying to honestly cover the White House. Quote:'You're fake news!' Trump slams CNN White House reporter in tense finger-pointing confrontation RE: Jim Acosta - Belsnickel - 08-14-2017 He is grandstanding, but he wasn't wrong in this instance, and I think it is a valid question.

Right or wrong it's constant grandstanding with this guy. Everything is a catastrophe with this guy. Not having the briefings on video was the best move. RE: Jim Acosta - tigerseye - 08-14-2017 The reporters used to ask questions and report news. Now we have to deal with their insecure need to be heard and seen. Acosta is an attention ho. The more outragous things they say and report the better. Who cares if what they say are true or what they are implying is complete make believe. They are feeding the voter base/viewers and it doesn't matter if its true or not. Their viewers want to believe what they are saying so they say it knowing it is BS. Everybody tunes into their chosen reality. Servicing the viewer, not reporting the actual truth/news. They spin it into whatever they need it to be. Where is the head of the FCC? Like everything else it has become a position of politics and integrity no longer exist. Truth has been turned into spin. Pick your reality.

That or he is one of the few journalist in that room who is not intimidated by the Tweeter of the US and has the balls to ask the questions that Drumph don't want to answer. ![]() RE: Jim Acosta - Nebuchadnezzar - 08-14-2017 Quote:"Haven't you spread a lot of fake news yourself?Said after Trump said he wont take questions from fake news outlets. To me and in that context it sounds like Acosta and CNN is admitting to airing fake news. Now others may say Acosta is only accusing Trump of spreading fake news but context is everything and everyone says words matter.

This is why they should just come out and admit to being openly partisan news. Then at least we could have half right wing and half left media outlets covering the White House.

Was Trump reacting to an Acosta's question when he gave his fire and fury response? What about the worse than fire and fury response? Was that Acosta's doing, too?

Reporters yelling questions after the "press conference" is over isn't unusual or unheard of. A President saying he refused to take questions from a station because he thinks they are "fake news" is. Especially when he has shared fake stories himself...repeatedly...from another station that he considers NOT fake news. RE: Jim Acosta - tigerseye - 08-16-2017 CNN and Acosta's target audience are zombies. RE: Jim Acosta - oncemoreuntothejimbreech - 08-16-2017 Was Trump reacting to Acosta at the Trump Tower temper tantrum yesterday?

Trump was the author of the fake news stories about Obama wire tapping him and his unmasking insinuations. Any news outlet that covered those fake news stories published fake news. |
