Jim Acosta of CNN Spreads Fake News About Trump’s Visit to Congressman Steve Scalise!
Medium.com ^ | 06/15/2017 | Mike Cernovich

CNN’s Jim Acosta Tweeted fake news tonight and has not apologized for his hoaxing.

Acosta Tweeted, “WH official on hospital visit: “President Trump did not meet with Scalise and did not go into the room where Scalise is being treated.” This was proven to be fake.

Acosta deleted the Tweet after it received nearly 2,000 RTs. He did not apologize for his error. Ironically, Acosta’s pinned Tweet says, “We are real news Mr. President. #realnews.”

Jim Acosta is fake news. CNN is fake news.

Acosta tried doing damage control, blaming his fake news Tweet on an unnamed “poll reporter.” His lies were called out within seconds.

@Acosta Your original tweet said "WH official". It didn't reference WH pool. But once caught out, oh, well, it's the pool's fault.  — @jeffdobbs

@jeffdobbs @Acosta To boot.....Acosta put in quotations as if he received statement personally from "WH Official" This is 💩  — @CJTThumper

Plan to dump your AT&T subscriptions and shares. The Country doesn’t deserve this type of abuse.

The devil’s little helpers. Anyone who lies is doing the work of the father of lies.

This dumb bass actually thinks Trump is going to try to pull that stunt and expect to get away with it??

I can top his story. Exclusive! I was told by insiders that the Warriors did NOT beat the Cavs for the NBA title. People at the game know that the score shown on TV was fake. The Cavs won by one point in double overtime.

Rush was speculating today that this might have been a planted story to flush out a leaker. It would be quite easy to give a fake story to a single individual, and then wait to see if it appears in the press.

And yet the feckless chumps in the white house will still allow Acosta and his CNN cronies to attend all the press events, right?

When an evil progressive liar gets away with no consequences he’s got no motivation to correct his behavior. At this point I blame this administration as much as I blame Acosta and CNN for the fake news. If Spicer doesn’t kick those bastards out, permanently, he’s consenting through silence.

They’re truly obsessed, or maybe possessed is a better word for it. They simply cannot have even one positive story about President Trump go out over their air. It’s pathetic.

Complicity through silence— I agree. Actions should have consequences, especially here when their goal is to destroy this president. Draining the swamp has yet to begin.

This exactly what they do, as I have complained about again and again. Hard to put toothpaste back in the tube, especially with poorly informed, reading-averse, and memory-challenged headline-only readers who also want to believe their own biases.
