Judge Says Ruling on CNN Lawsuit Will Come on Thursday

Much of the debate revolved around whether the White House had retaliated against Mr. Acosta for his critical coverage, which CNN said amounted to a violation of his First Amendment and due process rights. Lawyers for the Justice Department argued that Mr. Trump had discretion to choose the reporters who cover his events at the White House.

No one has a first amendment right to a White House press pass! IMO, Jim Acosta has acted like a spoiled brat and doesn't deserve one. I used to teach 8th graders in the public schools, and most of them acted better than he has on occasion.

I read that CNN has many other While House reporters who can do the job. This fact makes their lawsuit frivolous, IMHO.

We have to prove to the democratic people that their leaders are really no leaders at all. They're not even very good at lying and manipulating, let alone leading by good example.

51 years old and I've never seen such blatant hypocrisy since my parents paid the piano player at church to raise me, of which Pagans don't even do. Hardened, numb, crazy hearts....the whole world.

Everyone and all animals effected by humans became corrupt. None were left but two handfuls of humans. Noah built a boat to escape doom. What are we going to build to escape today's doom? This planet is in trouble and I suggest we wake up asap. Check your heart to see if it is hardened and numb. I'd take God's Word very serious and start running the Race according to the rules....starting right now.

Let us start obeying. Let us pay close attention to what comes out of our mouths. Let us be kind to one another. Let us build up the weak. We are NOT BUILDING UP THE WEAK! Instead, by ignoring the weak, we are responsible for their becoming more and more weak and we are then, responsible for their sins. There are to be no weak people in our Body of Christ! We are to help one another (like Jim Acosta) recognize our sin and ways, so I suggest we begin fulfilling this basic command of Love and start making your election and calling sure. Let us do that by loving each other.

Pft….who ever heard of paying the piano player at church to take their kid. What a lame church to allow something like that. Wake up people and "Pastors"!

Jim's attitude says a lot. This guy needs to be placed on not only permanent leave from the white house but fired as well. Like a previous poster said, and I agree, my 5 year old controls himself better than Jim. It's really sad. No shame at all.

Our world famous poll here says it's 3 to 1 to never let Jimmy into the White House again.

At least while Trump is in office. He disrespected President Trump and the White House staff.

Where's my constitutionally guaranteed press pass?

Trump already studied that and there is no guaranteed pass.

The goat reporters (hearders) say, that you can't win them all.

How do you know he should be fired?

Think about it,
You are the owner of a company.

You have an employee that shows contempt at your customers.

He has a lack of respect.

He has poor conduct.

And, regardless of how much force is used, he lays hands on customers.

How does that not warrant disciplinary actions up to termination of ones job?

I would like your opinion. No judgement on my part will proceed from your response. Just curious how you see this.

He works for CNN. They are the only ones who know how valuable an employee he is to them.

Does this statement imply that if you were owner of a company, and your employee did all the things I mentioned, you would "look the other way" if he was of value to you?

Thus, risk loosing your customer base.

Cause lets face the facts, CNN has been loosing customers

No it doen't Imply anything. It's straight forward. CNN is the only one that knows how valuable Acosta is to them.
I can't determine that and neither can you.

My question was pretty straight forward too. I don't understand how it was avoided.

Also, the facts are pretty evident and out in the open. So, everyone can pretty much make that determination upon him, due to the nature of the type of job/position he has, and the evidence of his conduct. They only thing I cannot due is fire him or discipline him since I do not own CNN.

I try to watch them every once in awhile just to see what's going on over there.

So much Trump hating that I have to turn the channel before too long.

I notice that CNN also avoids any news that puts trump in good light. Like, not one good thing at all. Even if they know its good and agree, they still avoid it. I cant stand watching or even reading their articles and news for more than 5-10 min

I'm not answering your questions because they have nothing to do with this discussion. What I would do is irrelevant.

Look, I am sorry, but it spawned from a question you asked me....

How do you know he should be fired?

I answered your question by giving a situational scenario that explains Acosta to the letter, and in turn asked you a question...
How does that not warrant disciplinary actions up to termination of ones job?

All of which is totally relevant to the topic at hand.

No sweat from me if you don't wish to say anything. I believe you know perfectly well and therefore your silence on it says enough.

Thank you for your time with me on this topic. I am sure will speak again. Take care.
