Seriously, all he had to do is say, "No. Next Question."


Are you a moron? This is a serious question. Have you actually watched the video? The intern was reaching for the microphone because there president has already said something along that line multiple times.

I'm all for freedom of the press and all for free speech. I love free speech so much I will fight for someone's right to say something I disagree with and find disgusting.

However during those press meetings there needs to be rules so everyone gets questions answered. Acosta broke those rules. I agree that Acosta was an extremely rude individual.

He didn't block cnn from attending the press conferences. They were free to send someone else.

Long story short is if Acosta had come out and apologized and even said something like in my zeal to get at the truth, I crossed the line and for that I am sorry, I bet the whole deal would've been over.

Instead cnn decided to sue. Let's see how this goes. And he still doesn't have his pass. Hubris, thy name is cnn or Jim Acosta.

In another more Texan way of saying things, you mess with a bull you get the horns.

I agree that there need to be rules. Unfortunately, there are no specific rules that Acosta broke. That's part of CNN's suit. They want specific rules in place so that the POTUS can't abuse power and bar any negative press. What's so bad about that?
