The White House said Friday it will “temporarily” reinstate a press pass for CNN reporter Jim Acosta after a court ruled he had been improperly barred following a contentious exchange with President Donald Trump.

Trump spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said “in response to the court, we will temporarily reinstate the reporter’s hard pass.”

But she left open the possibility of seeking to remove Acosta’s access later and said new rules would be imposed “to ensure fair and orderly press conferences.”

Details soon

Propaganda and psychophancy is when you defend Buhari for disobeying court order and you celebrate another country because you hate the president.

I watched that press conference the Jim Acosta lacks respect completely you can't even try that with a local government chairman here

Those of you quoting me I guess you didn't watch the press conference.
CNN is hypocritical fake news media.
There were over 100 journalists present in the conference and each were entitled to a single question
Jim Acosta didn't ask a question but rather he was interviewing Donald Trump on the moral behind his banning of illegal immigrants arguing with Trump that they were not invaders.
He completely disrespected Sarah by refusing to hand over microphone to her while other journalists were struggling to have a chance to ask the president a question
bro u didn't need to explain to any one. I watched it. And the stupid guy was really disrespectful to the president. CNN knows what they are doing

Bros, you were not the only one that watched the video, the 'altercation' between him and Trump is nothing out of ordinary. Journalist are allowed to throw questions to the president at free will so far he/she has the president attention at that time. Who told you each journalist can only ask one question? Assumption most likely.

I think u are right from ur perception but have U looked at it from the other side of the coin. Trump's reaction was totally uncalled for from the very start. I don't think it was right for him to talk to that guy in that manner. Even as the president of the united states. He was meant to have handled it in a more civil manner and requested for another journalist in a more appropriate manner.
In my own opinion, both parties were sooo wrong.

U.S. District Court Judge Timothy Kelly, citing the legal precedent from the 1977 D.C. Circuit Court case, Sherrill v. H. Knight, said the White House did not provide Acosta “due process” in revoking the pass. Kelly, a Trump appointee, made clear that the ruling was not based on whether the White House violated Acosta’s First Amendment rights. Rather, CNN and the White House correspondent demonstrated a likelihood of success in arguing that their Fifth Amendment rights to due process were breached, the judge said.

Further, the judge stated the fact that CNN has other pass holders does not reduce the level of “harm” towards the network’s White House correspondent. The judge also remarked on Acosta “laying hands” on a White House intern, calling the characterization “likely untrue” and “partly based on evidence of questionable accuracy.”

Notably, Kelly, referring to his ruling as “very limited” in nature, left the door open for the White House to revoke Acosta’s credentials, granted due process is respected.

Rebelutionary:

And you think that isnt PETTY? He is the president for petes sake and some element of maturity will be expected of him in situations like this.

If this is what you are going to do as president then how are you different from the folks you criticise?

If you have watched such conferences, you will observe how these journalists behave like dogs off their leash.

There are times when he tries to answer them and at the same time bring them back to matters at hand but these journalists will have none of it.

Another thing i observe is that these irrelevant questions begin to look like a personal vendetta aimed at rubbishing his image.

Have you ever being caught off-guard with questions you are not prepared to answer at a particular time?

If you must know, am not a fan of Donald Trump. But this militia style of journalism is not good.

I haven't said this online before, but (no offence intended) please, Shut Up!!!
There's a difference between your culture of unmerited respect and a democracy. I hope Nigerians learn this.
Addressing the matter at hand, you should watch press conferences of U.S Presidents dating back to Bush or Clinton before you come and start talking about conduct. It's an every day style, just feed yourself with some journalist questions at Obama press conferences (on youtube), then come back to read what you wrote.
Thank you.

I agree with you 100% but revoking the access of such journalists only fuels their deviant attitude and they need to find a way to rein them in cos how many more will he need to throw out?

Lets not forget that this same Trump is uncouth and now that they are "channeling him" he is not taking it!

Many atimes, journalists do ask questions repeatedly.

Trump equally insulted a lot of them too that day.
He shouted on April Ryan to sit down like a 5yr old.
He also accussed another black reporter of being rascist because she asked him of referring to himself as a Nationalist.

Sending someone out is different from withdrawing a press pass. Do you know how many journalists Trump has sent out at his rallies? Besides, if anyone feels their right has been abused, then they should have sued Obama. That is why America is not Nigeria.
Re: Judge Orders Trump To Take Back Fired Journalist by abbey621(m): 6:39pm On Nov 16, 2018
People need to realize Trump is in his 70s, he's a spoiled Billionaire and fights back at everything, he does not care if you are a nobody, you attack him with a fork, he comes back at you with AK47. As a trump suporter, I feel this is his greatest advantage, unpredictability! Unfortunately no one can win against the media machine especially CNN so it might be best to just ignore them. If Acosta was rude, just refuse to answer his questions, they can't sue for that....lol

This is not Nigeria that everything goes,
He's a journalist just doing his job by asking questions citizens needs answers to,
Because he's on the other side does not give him sny right to be rude to the journalist,
If you're asked questions you're not comfortable with ..you can always say no comments,
And besides he calls the journalists enemies of the people exposing them to dangers and also maybe you saw the doctored video,Jim Acosta was not rude and it was the other way.

Exactly,
During Obama's time the journalists were worse but he was not rude to them he applied wisdom
Even during McCain contest against Obama...a journalist wanted to bring down Obama...
McCain politely stopped the journalist right away that the journalist should not speak bad about Obama's family..
