CNN's Acosta: 'The fix is in' on who gets to ask Trump questions


CNN's Jim Acosta said Wednesday that President Trump only called on conservative news outlets during his joint news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu because "the fix is in" on which outlets get to ask questions.

"You have a White House now that is in crisis," said CNN host John King following coverage of the news conference. "And calling on conservative news outlets, fine. But it doesn't answer the people should have. Questions that the american people, not just the news media, have"

Acosta, who was at the White House but was not called upon and was heard shouting a question when the news conference ended, was asked by King for his take on the president's choice of outlets that asked questions.

"The two questions that were asked or called upon from the president in this news conference went to the Christian Broadcasting Network, no accident, which is obviously owned by Pat Robertson, the televangelist down in Virginia," said Acosta. "It's a very conservative broadcasting network."


Acosta then characterized TownHall.com which got the second question, as "a very conservative website."
"And so in the last three news conferences, all of the questions to the American news media have been handled by conservative press. And i think, there's no other way to describe it, but the fix is in," the reporter said.

"This White House, this president, does not want to answer questions, critical questions, about his associates, his aides' contacts with the Russians during the course of that campaign just as his National Security Advisor is being run out of this White House on a rail."

We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

And, this would relate to "No. 6"  in Lawrence Britt's research "The 14 Characteristics of Fascism".

Control the media and you control the mind of the people.

Trump's personal feelings are getting in the way of him doing his job.
