First of all. One does not have the right to antagonize, be loud and rude with no manners. If you call this journalism then you belong off the air! Is this how you conduct yourself in someone else's house?? He deserves to be banned from journalism for-ever!

It’s not someone else’s house. It is OUR house. Tax payers own the White House, not Trump! We pay the bills!

The problem with Acosta is that he wants to debate the president not just ask him questions. It's up to the people to decide whether the answer a president gave is enough. Ask the tough question, listen the answer, don't interrupt,ask for a second one, if he refuses accept that.
-
He still can’t be banned for that
-
Your opinion of Acosta does not matter. He is the press and we have the First Ammendment. You do believe in the Constitution don’t you?
-
I do. CNN can send another reporter who doesn't want to be the centre of attention. Acosta wants to be the story, not report it.
-
And when that reporter keeps asking because he is not getting an answer and he gets his credentials taken away too. Then we find out the only ones that dont are the ones that dont ask any questions at all.

Leash Acosta and it’s all good, it’s a privilege.
-
I think the reporters should be allowed a follow up question, and insulting a reporter for asking a question is also not good decorum.
-
Prob is the majority aren’t questions, especially when Jim chimes in with follow up No No No Mr President.
saying it’s dumb yes isn’t a good look. 45 should just ignore and walk away. Makes good TV
-
Yes, but even if Acosta were asking legitimate follow-ups, that's not a right, and certainly not one given by the Constitution. Of course the President/WH can bar a reporter who acts unbecomingly. Bizarre. Bad move on Fox's part. And I would say the same if Obama did it.
-
Yeah, the constitution says NOTHING about a free press!
-
It does. But ironically, U don't seem to know what it says about the press. it gves freedom of press, not freedom of access. It does not require the President to give briefings to the press, talk to the press, or anything of the sort He can't stop them from speaking+investigating
-
They can't block access, why do you think Trump was court ordered to unblock people on Twitter?
-
That is because of restricting info made available to all in principle from specific individuals. That is not the case here. Do you think the president has to give press briefings at all? Of course not. They don't have guranteed access to him to be able to question him.

Fox and CNN, part of the same dying machine despite Fox's more rational views. To claim that this court jester, is having access weaponoized is ludicrous. There are many news outlets not allowed to get WH passes. CNN and Fox act more like political arms of propaganda than media
-
Rational??
-
lol exactly, FOX is as literal of a state propaganda channel as can be without actually literally stating it.
