When will Jim Acosta/CNN be allowed to ask WH/POTUS question(s) at press conference?

[Objective Voice]

In light of the new rules put in place by the White House governing press conferences, how long do you think it will take before Jim Acosta/CNN to ask another question?

Do you mean how long to bleat one out or how long it will take him to be called on?

I think he should be given the responsibility of asking all the questions. He can be the offical represenitive for the entire press corpse.

Yes, I meant to post...

...but got called away and couldn't edit post before time elapsed.

Press CORPSE is right. Journalism is dead.

From what I understand it isn't CNN.... it's just Acosta, they can send another guy in there if they with no problem.

No idea, it will be interesting to see if the WH vindictive streak against CNN continues in light of their filing suit against the WH and winning the first battle. That the judge is a Trump appointee must have raised his ire. Kind of disappointed the WH backed down. What strikes me is how pissed many conservatives get if any reporter asks a hardball question. Its as if that's not what they are supposed to do. Hardball questions bring accusations of media bias and fake news. Heck even soft ball questions insult this president and elicit a scathing bullying response. Trump is the 13th president in my lifetime to date. I was too young to remember much about Truman. All presidents got annoyed with some of the press, but not like this one.

As soon as Trump decides that he wants to pick another fight...

 

[SkyFox76]

Trump loves press coverage regardless of good or bad. I never put all my eggs in one basket, but I predict that Trump will call on Acosta just so he can make some type of "bait comment" hoping Acosta will bite. Then Trump can hop and Twitter say he hammered things.

Journalism is alive and thriving for thinking man.

Sure, guy who thinks Pinochet is a hero.

Certainly had a healthy press under that guy eh?

If I were Trump, I would deliberately not call on him for the rest of my presidency, and would simply ignore his existence every time he tries to grandstand and yell out questions.

I think that's a good idea. Put the repugnant reporter out of a job.

Utter nonsense.

If he can resist making an ass of himself again, Acosta should be fine with a month or two. But this is Acosta we're talking about here. He's going to find some way to try and dig his heels in and play at being the victim, so who knows.

 

[Myview]

Utter nonsense.

Lol, look at all the conservative outrage on line at Chris Wallace of Fox News who simply did his job as he has done for many years consistently without regard for which parties president he happens to be interviewing.

I'm not sure the White House has exactly backed down. As I understand it, the judge provided Acosta with a temporary - 14 day - reprieve on the removal of his press pass. However, upon issuing that court order, the White House returned the press pass and then suspended Acosta for 14 days until the court hearing on the matter takes place.

If I were the press corps I would preface every question with : "On behalf of my colleage Mr Acosta..." They should reject these appalling rules, designed to limit press freedom and Trump accountability.

And then Trump could simply walk away from the podium. He can just issue press releases and speak through twitter and video to the nation if the Press Corps isn't capable of basic decorum.

The last report I saw was from ABC News yesterday which said the WH was restoring Acosta's pass with details of their new press conference rules.
The new rules allow one question from each reporter. I see several news sources reporting the same today.

Ok, I'll look. Where is it?

Just type in...conservatives attack Chris Wallace..I can't do stuff for you. Keep this up and we will have 1000 useless posts soon.

I don't know why journalists would want to sit and listen to people lie to their faces.

I couldn't.

:lol: That would be entertaining. I think they should give Acosta Sander's job; now that would be hilarious.

Both sides are liars, aren't they? I mean the press, in effect, takes a politician's lie and twists it around. :lol:
