White House backs down in fight with Acosta? Let’s hope not!

According to “the most trusted name in news,” the White House has surrendered to Jim Acosta and CNN’s lawyers. My advice is wait and see. I suspect the White House knows that Acosta will misbehave again and plans to revoke his press pass after the new rules are in place. This will remove a potential avenue of appeal for the grandstanding celebrity journalist. Let’s hope that is the plan rather than just emboldening Acosta by letting him get away with it!
