This story just keeps getting better

quote:

CNN's Jim Acosta came up with an excuse late on Thursday night after a nasty message that he sent to a former Trump administration official went viral.

Justin Caporale, a former official for First Lady Melania Trump, teased Acosta in a tweet that said, "Dear Diary" — a term that is often used on Twitter to make fun of Acosta.

Acosta responded by sending Caporale a direct message verified by The Daily Wire that said, "F--k you."

Acosta then blocked Caporale so he could not respond back to the message.

After facing a significant amount of backlash, Acosta then came up with an excuse for his actions, writing: "Hey buddy I thought you were an old friend from the campaign days. I’m so sorry. Hope I didn’t offend you. Have a good night and take care."

So he's lying.

He's from CNN so a lie is usually his default position.

There's an interesting story unfolding at a Saudi consulate in Istanbul that I'd like Acosta to investigate.

I'd pay for his ticket there.

Acosta shouldn't be on twitter anymore.

And his explanation is even dumber than his first FU to him.

Acosta is a perfect microcosm of the media: wholly disingenuous, malicious, and driven by personal agenda and bias.

poor Justin, He's probably scarred for life because someone said "frick you" to him. It's probably a good thing he doesn't hear everything that ole' Melanoma says about him and the rest of her staff.

Acosta is a thin skin bitch. What happened was ..acosta personally insulting someone, and then blocking them because he was afraid of the reply.
