Can any of you CNN loving folks explain this idiot to me? If ANYONE would have treated Obama like this he or she would have been thrown out of the country and labeled a racist. Yet you condone if not celebrate Acosta acting like an asshole. The liberal double standard knows no bounds.

I've never heard of him & watched CNN for a few minutes in the gym one time and couldn't quit laughing at the whiney housewives & metro sexual dudes.

I've always said that their minds are like 4th graders, always pouting, crying, etc.

All I know is we'll probably never have another President who will call people out & say it like it is albeit maybe not so eloquently.

You see, liberals like eloquent words. Words that they need to hear to feel secure and validated. That was Obama, who was one of the best speakers as a president ever. But I listen to him rant now and he sounds ghetto without a teleprompter and someone to write speeches for him.

Modified video? How do you modify Acosta acting like an asshole and then trying to give the staffer a stiff arm when she came to get the mic. Seems pretty clear to me. That being said I would like to see how the liberal media doctored the video though.

3 frames were different between 2 videos, likely because of the different editing software used or the person editing the video. 3 FRAMES. In a edited video like that you see about 30 frames PER SECOND. One video was edited and rendered at 30 frames per second and another at a different frame rate, likely with different software. 3 frames is about 10% of one second and almost not even enough to catch the difference with the human eye. It does not make Acosta look any better or worse. It does not change the fact Acosta put his hands on someone else and acted inappropriately and disrespectfully.

This isn’t an isolated incident.
He could have been tossed before.

Not sure why you are defending him?
It isn’t like he provided any kind of stimulating questions or discussion.

He’s a fucking news reporter...allegedly...
is putting his hands on someone else where you draw the line for acceptable behavior for correspondents attendance at a Presidential news conference?

‘Ganga is right, he’s lucky he didn’t hauled off.

Come now Squeezer, are you saying his behavior was acceptable? He need a punch in the nuts for that shit. He's had it coming and he is lucky the SS didn't just come and haul him away.

Acosta’s and ass and does not belong in the WH press core...

Faking “evidence” of an asualt that never happened with 20 or so cameras around is below even this White House ( Or at least it should be)

The clip I saw, not sure if it was edited? If it was, I would agree there was no need to edit it. He was rude to the POTUS, he simply ignored and diminished the young lady whom attempted to remove him from the microphone. She made several swipes at the mic and he blocked her.

But, things as they are, Trump gets accused of attempting to limit the free press. Kinda like James Rosen and his family being "wiretapped" eh?

That was a woman, a young woman, that Acosta was in a scruff, yes? That's most likely someone's daughter...I thought that meant something to squeege at one time, when it was politically advantageous of course. Now, not so much.

Can you imagine the repercussions if a reporter would have treated Obama like that? If he made contact of just used the stiff arm to block her away it is highly inappropriate behavior.

No one faked anything with regard to this.

He clearly pushes her arm away with the back of his hand and his
If I was Trump I would have a guy close by with a taser. Next time something like this happens, zap the mic from him/her. Lol

Every one of those pseudo journalists should be pre wired with a remote tazer and Sara Huckabee holding the trigger.:D

And its come the full circle...

The only reason the WH released the wording that did was to chum the water for you guys. There is now way this was a random spontaneous event. Trump calls on Acosta, Acosta does what everybody in the room expects him to do, young female intern reaches in to take a mike away from him four times, his hard pass gets pulled with reference to assault...

Just how stupid does the WH think its base is anyway ? (They know the rest of the world is going to see through it...)

If it was a setup Acosta got played like a fiddle and now he is no longer allowed access to the president. It’s a win for the whitehouse on all fronts. Acosta did what Acosta does and acted like an asshole. Throw in a pretty girl in attempting to get the mic away and him throwing the stiff arm in. Solidifies to the republican base that CNN is out to get the president. CNN is fake news and is not to be believed. #winning

Good god man, youve finally lost it completely.

Btw, Trump doesn’t give 2 fucks what the “rest of the world” sees or thinks.
He isn’t the bowing, ass kissing, appraisal seeking piece of shit that his predecessor was.

Bottom line, Acosta is and has been a disruptive combative asshole since day one. Been a long time coming.

Yea, Faking Evidence... There is not a single reason someone would go in and remove three frames from that video in that exact spot other than to make Acostas arm motion look faster.
