Jim Acosta, formerly of CNN, has a really stupid idea. He is Jim Acosta after all. He wants all the media to boycott President Donald Trump's administration. Acosta wants this to happen because the AP lost some White House privileges. Oh, no! Of course, nothing screams ‘independent journalism’ like all media coming together to do the same thing.
Here’s a quote from Acosta. (READ)
"News outlets then must rally to the cause, by offering supportive statements to the court hearing the case, writing op-Eds backing the AP, and, if necessary, refusing to cover presidential movements in solidarity, until Trump backs down," Acosta said on Substack.
"The presidential Sharpie is not mightier than the pen."
Acosta is as irrelevant as ever.
Here’s a flashback of Acosta cementing his reputation as an insufferable hack. (WATCH)
Americans are abandoning the legacy media in droves because they lie incessantly and can’t be trusted. Legacy media boycotting the White House would hardly even be noticed.
Trump gives them something to write about since they aren’t going to cover actual news.
Boycotting their major source of content would be industry suicide. We’ll allow it. It’ll just open seats for new media.
Acosta is probably not who anyone should be listening to for career advice. He went from the basement of CNN to his living room where he now hosts his own Substack.
The legacy media staging a boycott with the Trump administration turning around and immediately filling their spaces in the White House press briefing room with new media would be the most hilarious thing ever. Then if they ended their boycott they be shut out permanently due to space limitations. That would be too funny. Acosta would be furious on his couch.
