Good, you can’t try to censor your critics and expect to get away with it

he did not, he was trying to run a busy news conference and acosta overstayed his period which means others miss out. He showed NO respect or manners and should have been booted out on his arsehole

Crimson Dynamo 13-11-2018 01:42 PM

watch the clip

he was rude

Liam- 13-11-2018 01:45 PM

He was asking the questions that needed to be asked and Trump doesn’t like being asked difficult questions because he’s incapable of answering such questions, they’re trying to block someone from doing their job because they don’t want to deal with said difficult questions

No he had an agenda and Trump answered his question and he should have sat down and let others ask, that is the protocol.

he was rude and disrespectful, a disgrace to the media

Liam- 13-11-2018 01:52 PM

His only ‘agenda’ was to do his job, which the White House is now not allowing him to do because they’re worried about the questions they might get asked

he asked, he got a reply

now sit down and let others ask better balanced questions that dont reek of his hand-wringing liberal agenda

Surely CNN has other reporters they could send? Maybe ones who are less embarrassing?

Yes Fecking loads.


They just want to create a Story

Shaun 13-11-2018 02:28 PM

Wasn't he accused of manhandling a member of staff with some heavily doctored footage of her trying to snatch the microphone from him, edited to look like he shoved her away because it was super slowed-down? Just an embarrassing and blatant representation of that administration's refusal to live in the real world.

I'm sure CNN have lot's of other repotrers.the problem with this current White House administration is that they want to chose who those reporters are.It's bloody scary to watch in 2018

First of all, I don't think Acosta did anything illegal to that lady. Now we've cleared that bit up let's talk about the doctored video.

The video in question was a Paul Joseph Watson video, he's made another video explaining that the video was not doctored at all. The President also agrees and explains why it wasn't doctored, experts in this field also explain why it wasn't doctored. So why did the establishment media say it was? Because fake news wasn't just a made up concept, it's a real thing.

alf it was doctered..You know it aswell as me."the president also agrees"
I hope you will forgive me when I tell his opinion means fok all to me.no skin of my clit.you can carry on with your conspiracy theroies..me I ..like facts

Tom4784 13-11-2018 05:18 PM

Good, it's disgraceful what has happened here and it's just another example of the administration's opposition to a free press. No journalist should be denied access to the right house for asking difficult questions or questions that the president does not like.

The whole 'Acosta was RUDE!' angle falls apart considering that Trump spent that press conference being terribly rude to multiple people himself but neither him or his fans will acknowledge that hypocrisy because they live in a fantasy world where they think that if they refuse to acknowledge something, it didn't happen.

Oh god, the best way to ensure I won't watch a video is to put that dick's face on the thumbnail. He's an extreme moron that panders in fairy tales and falsities. Nobody who is that biased can ever be treated as a reliant or impartial source.

I'd sooner save my time because I know that video will just be pure spin and bull**** aimed at people who want to be told what they want to hear.

Alf 13-11-2018 05:53 PM

It's a simple way to clear this up. CNN are accusing Watson of doctoring the video, Watson is denying he doctored it, so why don't CNN have Watson on to debate this?

I don't believe your reason for not watching the video Dezzy, I think you just have a phobia of stepping outside your echo chamber, and that's fine and your choice, you just don't need to lie about it.

Nah, I trust Watson more than CNN, Watson has far less to gain and far less to lose than they do. And Watson's evidence is better.

Ironic considering you're the one trying to make out that the biased video is worth a damn.

I value impartiality, I value facts. I don't value fairy tales told by people on either extreme side. There is nothing to be learned from someone pushing falsities to serve their own agenda. You say I'm in an echo chamber but you're the one pushing this video despite the obvious biased nature of that youtuber because he appeals to your own agenda.

Trying to make out that an opinion is a lie is...well... Good luck with that, buddy.

You trust him more because he tells you what you want to hear.
