Only thing, Acosta is not alone, nor is CNN. Several news outlets have sided with CNN....EVEN FoxNews! 😮

No

This week it's Jim, Next week April.....slippery slope to dictator.

Yes 'We' Can.

So anybody can sue because they don’t have a press pass to the WH? Right.

It's a political game between CNN and a narcissistic president. Nothing else.

Yes they can... by.. lies... Fake events... As usual..

White House News Room doesn’t belong to CNN and microphone is private property of CNN. Nobody has right to ask unlimited number of questions and unlimited time to hold public microphone.

I am praying that CNN prevails. An assault on the 1st amendment is an assault on our Constitution- PERIOD! Trump is rude and doesn't want to be held to standard expected of a president. He's an outlaw.

Other journalists should sue Acosta and CNN because Acosta selfishly stole the scarce question time. journalism politics

No mention of him physically interfering with a press conference. Different case.

DonaldTrump 'Do you mean with the judges I own? Because I own them. I have receipts.'

If CN

If CNN)

IT WILL COME DOWN TO RESPECT

Well the White House has reason He is aggressive with staff and refuses to follow proper protocol That is reason enough

One never knows it would be very interesting if CNN beats the White House in this, particular, matter.😮😮😮

Please check your facts. The woman that Acosta interacted with is Lindsay Walters, LWalters45, she is White House Deputy Press Secretary. She doesn’t sound like an intern to me.

Great , no more press conferences

Si, están los derechos. Y nadie puede abusar de su autoridad, ellos están en su derecho de reclamar.

not at all.

No. Because there is no right to a made up press credential for a made up press briefing

The real question is should it. Trump seems right in that Acosta is sermonizing and making the briefing about his needs, his issues and yet wrong on locking him out. CNN is wrong by escalating rather than telling him to knock it off. Both are looking for ratings.

Fake News baby Jim Acosta lost his press pass for disrupting a press conference and putting his hands on a female intern. CNN suing based on the 1st amendment. But, they are the ones limiting his speech - they won’t give him a show. Why? They feel he has nothing to say.

Mr. sherrill didn’t get physical with an intern like Acosta did !

The beauty either way is Acosta is done as a 'Whitehouse Correspondent' He can go cover growing grass in the midwest now.

Current W H? Of course CNN will win!

In this country we have freedom of the press, not freedom to be an idiot.

Discover will be very revealing CNN will have to turn over all text messages , Emails, interrogatories CNN enemy of the people

CNN should have better sense.The world is watching.

If cnn will, that will end of America.

CNN has been spreading lies in their biased fashions, true journalism shall not be biased, they are a lost case

why beat The White House that protects your rights

No, CNN is going to lose and lose big. Case never should have been brought.

Yea but he didn’t act like a kindergartener in the White House like Jim

That’s not an intern!!! THATS THE DEPUTY PRESS SECRETARY!!!!!!!!!

Always with Jim! Trump dictator, hands off press!

‘The government’s story keeps changing’: CNN seen as likely to prevail in White House fightPresident Trump and press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders often have the upper hand over CNN in the White House briefing room.

They can’t have a guy that unstable around the president. lol shifting... you mean 'adding on'...
