I completely agree that a free press is important to maintain, completely Constitutional and NEEDED.
However, Jim Acosta feels the need to BE the news instead of report the news way too often. He really is a gloryhound. He does try to monopolize pressers way too often. He thinks he's edgy, and the only person in that room heroic enough to ask tough questions, which is completely untrue.
As a reporter, we see his face too often. Stick to reporting the news, not making yourself the news.
As far as laying his hands on the intern, he obviously did it, the severity is what's in question.
Let's treat it like we would anyone else "laying his hands on a woman." Patriarchy? #BelieveHer anyone?
