The news topping us this hour besides the best physical in the world reported for a non sleeping, non exercising, junk food junkie is the fact that Jim Acosta at CNN was humiliated when 45 told him to Go..He didn’t like the question. Isn’t this what Dictators do? What happened to Free Press? What happened to holding people accountable to the public by the press by asking questions? According to reports, after telling CNN’s reporter to Go, the white house’s deputy press secretary Hogan Gidley got up in the press’s face and yelled so loud, no one could ask questions. Here is the article and video. We are in deep here, people.
From Raw Story
Speaking with CNN host Wolf Blitzer, White House correspondent Jim Acosta said President Donald Trump wanted no part in answering questions before he held a photo op with Kazakhstan President Nursultan Nazarbayev and White House staffers shouted him down after Trump singled him out.
“As I tried to ask whether he wanted more people to come in just from white or caucasian countries, he said, ‘out,'” Acosta said. “He pointed to me and said, out, as in get out of the Oval Office.”
Acosta said reporters then went to the Roosevelt Room, where Trump and the president of Kazakhstan made remarks.
But when he tried to ask the president questions after the remarks, deputy press secretary Hogan Gidley “got right up in my face… and started shouting so loudly that it was impossible for the president to hear our questions.”
