Jim Acosta is done.
His press pass should be yanked, and he should be chased out of town for his fake news antics, that were just revealed on video.
Here’s how it happened:
On Friday, Acosta attended President Trump’s event to discuss the six-month mark of his incredible tax reform, and where he also made a comment on the murder of five people at an Annapolis, Maryland, newspaper by a man with a years-long feud with the paper.
At that time, Acosta, from the very back of the large room, shouted a rude question at the president, which made it appear to his CNN audience as if Trump was solely responsible for the shooting at the newspaper.
At the end of the video, Acosta is heard asking the cameraman if he “got the shot,” and then the cameraman turns off the lights.
This was not some “off the cuff” moment in journalism, as Acosta paints it, later in a tweet. This was a setup, designed to embarrass the president and “manufacture” a news story.
Jim Acosta and CNN STAGED a propaganda moment of 100 percent fake news for their audience and to attack our America First President.
There was no way President Trump would have heard the question from the back of the room.
That moment was designed to lead CNN viewers to believe that President Trump’s angst with the fake news media was to blame for the shooting at the Annapolis Gazette.
Sickening – and completely false and shamefully phony.
From Breitbart
CNN anti-Trump activist Jim Acosta was caught on video Friday not only engaging in shameless grandstanding, but in the actual act of manufacturing fake news.
In the video embedded below, Acosta is present at a White House event where President Trump delivered remarks about the five journalists murdered in Maryland on Thursday. As you will see, though, Acosta is clearly too far away to be seen or heard by the president.
Nevertheless, although there is no way he will be heard, Acosta drops all pretense of professionalism to still holler a question to the president: “Will you stop calling the press the enemy of the people, sir?”
In other words, Acosta knows Trump cannot hear him, but like a heckler out to spoil the moment for everyone else, he still screams his question at him.
Watch for yourself:
OMG!

It is only at the end of the video that we discover Acosta’s true motive, and it is the opposite of journalism. Watch as Acosta turns around to look at his cameraman and appears to ask if they got the shot. Then the camera lights are shut off, which again reveals just how staged and artificial all of this is.
This is not journalism.
Acosta and CNN knew Trump was too far away to hear the question.
This is staging news, manufacturing news, a fictional piece of propaganda produced as a means to deliberately mislead the public and embarrass the president.
If these staged theatrics are not bad enough, Acosta and CNN then doubled down in their deliberate crusade to mislead. “I tried to ask the president if he would stop calling us the enemy of the people. He did not respond,” Acosta tweeted Friday:
I tried to ask the president if he would stop calling us the enemy of the people. He did not respond.

Again, this is Acosta and the far-left CNN’s calculated attempt to deceive, to make it seem as though Trump was asked a direct question and refused to answer
Acosta is so far away from Trump, you can barely make out the president from where Acosta is standing, and yet, to fabricate fake news, Acosta films the propaganda of him shouting a futile question and then publicly accuses Trump of refusing to answer.
If the media do not want to be called the “enemy of the people,” maybe they should stop acting like it.

Shame on him; these days journalists wants to be the news instead of covering it.
Yup, typical narcissistic behavior.
