The Federalist "It’s starting to seem as though Jim Acosta is biased. His latest video report must truly be seen to be believed."
. . . "Of course, Acosta thought he was undermining Trump’s “national emergency” narrative by depicting a relatively peaceful scene along a section of steel slats in McAllen, Texas on Thursday. Were he not so blinded by his own bias and thirst for retweets, Acosta may have realized the “tranquil[ity]” he encountered actually kind of makes Trump’s point about the wall. But that’s asking a little too much."

✔ @HolmesJosh Expressing shock that there is no imminent threat as he walks along....a border wall. I think that’s the point, right?
. . . "Ever fueled by an aggressive self-awareness deficit, Acosta just couldn’t help but frame his 30-second video report as an indictment of Trump’s policy, making his self-own that much sweeter. The only disadvantage here is that we’re spilling another round of ink on Acosta, which is ultimately what the guy wants. What I want, on the other hand, is Burger King, so at least Acosta has that.

“ 'Jim Acosta just posted one of the biggest self owns ever,” social media strategist Caleb Hull responded. ‘He's walking along the border where there's a wall in place talking about how there's nothing that ‘resembles a national emergency situation’ and ‘there's no migrants trying to rush.’ "That's because there's a wall, Jim.”
"Others swiping at Acosta included one of his former CNN colleagues Peter Hamby." . . .
