White House suspends CNN reporter's credentials for putting "his hands on a woman"

[Felya]

Why doesn't CNN just send another reporter? Are they that broke they have only 1 to send?

Because having a president ban journalist that ask questions he doesn’t like, is an abhorrent precedent.

i am confused at this, don't you have to be invited by the white house to attend, this even extends to press. Are they not allowed at any time to just cancel someone's clearance.

Due process. He was kicked out based on fraudulent accusations based on a conspiracy website's doctored video.

If they can't suspend his press pass legally, they can pull CNN's spot and give it to another news reporting service. Since they are being openly antagonistic.

What do you even think the job of a journalist it? To bootlick?

Trump thinks CNN is fake news and the enemy of the people, so he'd probably just ban that one as well.


You let Trump get away with it once, and he won't stop.

To ask softball questions and to apologise for one critism that the population might have, while dispersing officially government sanctioned alternative-facts.

It makes no sense... why would anyone want the government to have the ability, to block the press they don’t like. Those journalists should be the first ones to ask questions. If they want something that boasts about how great the president is, maybe Trump should have done that before questions were started. No one forced him to single out republicans that didn’t kneel to him instead. The same way no one forced him to focus on immigration during primaries, when just about everyone was demanding he focus on the economy.

They don't have to. Because as soon as that Orange shitgibbon figures out it is CNN, he will just do to them what he did to Acosta.

Speaking of precedent, CNN is taking this to court to set legal precedent.

They would also have to have written guidelines... Which could be challenged in court. That whole pesky 5th amendment.

Except now with the ever changing story, the WH now states Acosta didn't want to give up the mic, he was grandstanding.

So WH needs to keep making new stories to cover their bs.

And they will lose based on changing their story, as well as using a fraudulent video.

Compare the reaction to a journalist being banned from asking the president questions. To the same people reacting to Alex Jones being banned on twitter and YouTube. Rediculous...

Then they should send another reporter and see what Trump does prove if it is Trump or Acasta. If Trump treats the new one the same then you know who to blame.

Right's are for Nazis and the far right only, not filthy journalists.

I prefer their own strategy of going for a lawsuit.

What is there to prove? There are no unknowns here.

They already did. This is taking the piss out of the administration for being petty to the point of stupidity.

Wouldn't it be better to just keep Acosta and put in a new president to see who was at fault?

What a fine conspiracy theory you have presented with 0 facts.

To be clear, he's already threatened to do so again.

Says the guy who supports the people who doctored a video specifically so they could attack Acosta.

Joseph Goebbels is looking up at SHS from whatever pit of hell he resides in now, shaking his head and muttering "amateur hour."
