CNN's Jim Acosta has WH press credential confiscated

The United States Secret Service confiscated the Comedy News Network's Jim "Where's My Mirror" Acosta's "hard pass" late Wednesday night after the self-aggrandizing "journalist" pulled yet another obnoxious display of impropriety during a White House press briefing. Acosta is clearly more concerned with calling attention to himself, and making Jim Acosta the story, than actually reporting the news.

"I've just been denied entrance to the WH. Secret Service just informed me I cannot enter the WH grounds for my 8 pm hit," the comedy reporter tweeted comedically.

"President Trump believes in a free press and expects and welcomes tough questions of him and his Administration," Sarah Sanders tweeted. "We will, however, never tolerate a reporter placing his hands on a young woman just trying to do her job as a White House intern."

"Contrary to CNN's assertions there is no greater demonstration of the President's support of a free press than the event he held today," Sanders added. "Only they would attack the President for not supporting a free press in the midst of him taking 68 questions from 35 different reporters."

And of course, Sanders is correct.

But Acosta even denied he laid his hands on the intern and video proof that he did shows he lied. Look at about the 1:26 minute mark and see exactly that.

Video doesn't lie and Acosta does. It's a good thing they took his "hard pass." All the White House needs to do at this point is demand Acosta no longer represent them and have them replace him with an actual journalist who will ask tough questions and keep his opinions to him or herself. Their opinions are not journalism.
