The Bulwark PodcastJim Acosta: Trump Can't Take the HeatOnce upon a time, presidents used to take tough questions from the press, but the current White House occupant can't handle any scrutiny from cantankerous reporters. And on his sad and sulking days, he needs warm and fuzzy Newsmax in the press pool to envelop him with flattery. Meanwhile, the joint session of Congress address has become basically pointless, SCOTUS blocks Trump's usurpation of power by one single vote, and at Trump's behest, the CIA is punishing Zelensky because he won't cooperate with the administration's disinfo campaign.
Plus, Democrats need to show voters they are genuinely furious. And i...

The AllisonKnows PodcastJim Acosta's CNN Resignation and the State of MediaCNN anchor Jim Acosta resigned on live television, protesting what he perceived as the network's capitulation to pressure from Donald Trump. Acosta's departure followed his reassignment to a less desirable time slot after he frequently held Trump accountable. The video analyzes Acosta's resignation within the broader context of perceived bias and pro-Trump narratives in various news outlets, including CNN, Fox News, and The New York Times. The speaker criticizes these networks for publishing headlines and presenting news coverage that he believes is misleading or propagandistic. The speaker concludes by inviting Acosta to join his own media platform.

The Jim Acosta ShowHold on to the truth…It was early March in 2007 when I received a phone call in the middle of the night. CNN’s bureau chief in New York at the time, Edith Chapin, called to deploy me to the Bronx on my first assignment as a CNN correspondent. A house fire had killed 8 children and one adult, in a four-story home shared by immigrant families. I still remember standing in the freezing cold for hours delivering one live shot after another on what was a horrific day for the borough. Mayor Bloomberg described it at the time as the city’s deadliest fire sinc...
