What are your thoughts on what Jim Acosta did to Mr. Trump yesterday during his press conference?

In my opinion, Acosta was rude and very unprofessional. Had he had done the same thing to Mr. Obama, he would've been fired.

this is just the actions of a chief reporter from the Clinton News Network... and it is going to be the the Norm for the next 4 years at least...
and BHO would have never been approached in the manor...

In a rapid and open question press pool, it was to be expected.

Maybe it's because I've paid more attention during the period of time, but it seems like over the course of the last decade or so the media has developed an increasingly liberal bias. If a democrat gets caught up in some scandal or nailed for doing something illegal, there might be an initial report but then it disappears. If it's a republican that something happens to, whether it be a legitimate crime or ethics issue, we hear about it for weeks, if not months and that individual is smeared day and night.

Remember Senator Leland Yee (D-CA) and the gun trafficking charges he faced? That was two years ago. Where'd that story go?

The biggest problems we face right now are a media and an education system, two things that should be apolitical, somehow becoming incredibly bias to an ideology that is about nothing but control over the masses.

I think President-elect Trump did the right thing to deny the opportunity for a question, and that Mr. Acosta behaved pretty badly there.

To be honest, if President Obama did what President-elect Trump did, he would have been crucified by the right.

Unacceptable, unless you're a liberal

But the shameful fact is, he would NEVER have done that to Obama.
