Misreported. The government are not ‘Trump lawyers’. pitiful how low WaPo goes to tie things to POTUS

Courts have no jurisdiction over White House press credentials. Bye Bye Acosta. You have disrupted your last White House press conference with your obnoxious behavior.

Get a desk job Acosta . Im sure CNN will have a new show for you already lined up for primetime TV! You'll even make more money from this publicity stunt!

Acosta's disrespectfulness while using his press credentials to push his political activism , and his CNN station's agenda , above professionalism & POTUS , inside of America's WhiteHouse , forfeited his pass privilege - which is not a right. 1A

You could just man up and apologize, Acosta.

Potus & WH also has the right to ignore bad grandstanding reporter

Freedom of the press is guaranteed, your white house pass is not. Cry us a river and drown in it.

Typical 'journalist':

$5.00 says the judge finds Jim Ocosta in contempt of court for speaking when Jim Ocaosta is told to be quiet. Come on Jim, grab the mic and keep talking... I dare you!!!! lol

I believe the narrative from the right is he should have stopped asking his “stupid” questions because the president called on someone else. The whole thing was staged, poorly acted, and orchestrated by the president. teamacosta

omfg.

Stand with Trump

Why can’t Acosta just behave?

Trump is behaving like a fascist dictator. Return Jim’s credentials now!

The Latest: White House writing up rules for reportersWASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on the legal challenge to the White House's decision to strip CNN reporter Jim Acosta of his White House press credentials (all times local): 1:20 p.m. President Donald Trump says the White House is 'writing up rules and regulations' for reporters after a judge ordered the administration to restore credentials for CNN reporter Jim Acosta. Trump told reporters Friday that 'people have to behave.' He added that if journalists 'don't listen to the rules and regulations, we will end up back in court and we will win.' Asked what he meant by rules and regulations, Trump said: 'Decorum. You can't take three questions and four questions. And just stand up and not sit down.' Trump said he wants 'total freedom of the press,' but added 'you have to act with respect.' The White House said Friday that it would 'temporarily reinstate' the credentials that were revoked after Acosta and Trump tangled during a press conference last week. 12:40 p.m. CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta says all he wants to do is go back to work covering 'the guy in there,' referring to President Donald Trump. More than 50 members of the White House press corps greeted Acosta as he strode through the northwest gate of the presidential compound. A federal judge on Friday ordered the administration to restore the credentials that were revoked after Acosta and Trump tangled during a press conference last week. Acosta says journalists need to know that in the United States their First Amendment rights and freedom of the press 'are sacred' and protected by the Constitution. He says he's grateful for the judge's ruling, that it was a test and he thinks the media passed the test. Acosta says: 'This is just any other day at the White House for me and I would like to get back to work.' I guess reporters will not be permitted ask any questions. They will be expected to listen respectfully as Porkobello and Sanders spew more lies. It will just be another photo-op for the WH with reporters as props. Precedent was set in the Sherrill v Knight case in the 70s. Any trumpies with reading comprehension should look it up. WASTE OF TIME POTUS-THE JUDGE WILL DECIDE
