There actually is merit to CNNs claim. A DC case in 1977 held that a press pass cannot be revoked without reason and an opportunity for the accused to respond. It was ruled a 5th Amendment violation.

However, all this means is that if the case goes to trial the White House will have to explain that Acosta was suspended for xyz, Acosta cries racism or something, White House suspends it anyway.

This is a dumb post, zero surprise who made it.

It'll get overturned because "He's a dick" and "The President doesn't like him" aren't valid reasons and no judge is going to allow "He was physically forceful with her" because a) she did it first and b) the WH is already backing off it.

They already supported another CNN action against the White House earlier this year when the WH disallowed another CNN reporter/journalist.

They could just be in this for their own interests but eh Of course the news networks will band together over this.

Shut the fuck up. CNN is going to win because Trump cant just ban whoever he wants and then doctor videos to try and prove his point.

Trump thinks he can run the Presidency like its the Apprentice where he can do whatever he wants and say whatever he wants and hes in for a world of hurt.

Acosta has a history of being disruptive and refusing to allow the other reporters there the opportunity to ask questions. He is disrespectful not only to the White House, but to the other reporters that are patiently waiting to ask questions to the president as well.

Acosta strong arming the mic after he refused to hand it off combined with his history of disruptive behavior is certainly a justification for revoking his press pass.

The methodology in which is press pass was revoked isnt going to pass constitutional muster, at least not as far as DC precedent goes. Who know how the Supreme Court would rule if it made it that far, but I have my suspicions that CNN would not come out on top.

Regardless even if the DC precedent was adhered to all it would be is remanded for the proper avenues to be followed. In this case the White House notifies Acosta that his press pass is being revoked for xyz, Acosta will cry racism or some other nonsense, the White House will say noted, youre still revoked.

Acosta's pass should have been yanked months ago after he gave a clearly rehearsed speech about immigration to Stephen Miller during a press conference, running over Miller when he tried to respond. He's not there to ask questions, he's there to run the Jim Acosta show. The consistent disrespect he's shown to press pool staff is incredible. CNN can easily send a real journalist to cover the White House but their embarrassing brand of journalism can only bring in ratings when Acsta stirs the pot so here we are.
