CNN's Jim Acosta has and will be a real piece of work

 But he does mesh will with TV hosts who hate Donald Trump (and I cannot find a better word to use than "hate". Can you? TD)

Chris Wallace Says He's "Horrified" by Jim Acosta's Press Conference (hollywoodreporter.com)  Feb 2020.

"Fox News anchor Chris Wallace was not impressed with CNN reporter Jim Acosta's behavior during a presidential press conference Tuesday in India. "It's not our job to one-up the president.' "

Fox News anchor Chris Wallace was not impressed with CNN reporter Jim Acosta‘s behavior during a presidential press conference Tuesday in India.n from Acosta, President Donald Trump criticized his network and said, “Didn’t they apologize for the fact that they said certain things that weren’t true? Tell me, what was their apology yesterday?”

For my publicity

"Acosta replied, “Mr. President, I think our record on delivering the truth is a lot better than yours sometimes, if you don’t mind me saying.” (Trump’s response: “Your record is so bad you ought to be ashamed of yourself.”)

"Acosta replied, “Mr. President, I think our record on delivering the truth is a lot better than yours sometimes, if you don’t mind me saying.” (Trump’s response: “Your record is so bad you ought to be ashamed of yourself.”)

"Wallace, speaking on Tuesday night at a Common Ground Committee event held at Columbia University, said he was “horrified” by Acosta’s behavior. He said that White House correspondents of the past, himself included, would never have behaved the way he did.". . .

Is Jim Acosta a good reporter or a bad one? - Quora  "To be a good reporter you have to start from a position of neutrality as you search for the truth and the facts that support it. The problem with reporters these days is they inject too much of their opinion and personal bias into the story. In Jim Acosta’s case, he seems to want to be the story. He could do well on the editorial page where opinions still matter. But he really doesn't belong in hard news with the level of bias that he displays routinely."

Jim Acosta violated one of the oldest rules of journalism (nypost.com)  . . ."The conduct of a handful of so-called reporters during President Trump’s news conference was disgraceful beyond measure. This is not journalism, this is narcissism.

"Naturally, the boorish Jim Acosta of CNN was the instigator. As is his habit, Acosta doesn’t ask questions — he makes accusations and argues. Almost daily, he does it with the press secretary; Wednesday, he did it with the president.

" 'I want to challenge you,” Acosta began after Trump called on him. Trump realized he’d made a mistake, murmuring, “Here we go,” and Acosta didn’t disappoint.

"He insisted that despite the president’s use of the word “invasion,” the caravan of Central American migrants “is not an invasion.' ” . . .

But we are witnessing something more insidious here than media trash talk. Plain and simple, we are watching expressions of personal hatred.

"Yes, it’s true that most journalists lean far left and their bias sticks out like so many sore thumbs. That’s been true for a long time, but political bias is an insufficient explanation for the Jim Acostas of our time.

They hate Trump. They really, really hate him. There’s nothing professional about it.

Jim Acosta Is the White House’s Favorite Reporter - POLITICO Magazine  ..."The seven-minute exchange, in which Miller delivered a surprisingly personal rebuke of Acosta’s argument—“one of the most outrageous, insulting, ignorant and foolish things you have ever said”—was riveting television and spawned an entire news cycle’s worth of coverage, as commentators scored it like a heavyweight bout. Debate points aside, the battle cemented Acosta’s undisputed role as the chief antagonist for a network that styles itself as Trump’s chief antagonist, a sparring partner for the administration in the unscripted reality TV show that is the daily briefing." . . .
