On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Situation Room,” CNN Chief White House Correspondent Jim Acosta suggested that the White House’s coronavirus briefings could be “better designed” by not having “these PR stunts like Mr. Pillow coming out and giving a plug for his company, and that sort of thing.” Acosta said, “I think these briefings could be, I think, better designed. The president could come out, say a few words in terms of what his administration is doing, not have these PR stunts like Mr. Pillow coming out and giving a plug for his company,

Acosta is really a dunce. By criticizing Mr. Pillow who is doing something good for the country during time of need, Acosta is actually promoting him. I am so tired of these lame brain reporters asking dumb questions and then trying to trash our President who is working around the clock to help the entire country. I would like to see the MSM actually try and help.

When Acosta (or any of the media) can contribute anything substantive for the effort other than hot air and recycled Chinese propaganda, then he can opine all he wants. Otherwise, shut up and sit down.

Every one of those executives had a chance to give a pug for his/her company. And well they deserve it for stepping up in this time of crisis. POTUS gave them the spotlight and the American public got to learn what these good companies are doing for their country. That was the purpose of thisi particular press conference - showcasing the rapid success of the public-private cooperation. Instead of asking questions so we can learn more about that, as usual, the media only knows how to be destructive.

It would not surprise me if today 1) There was a significant increase in the orders for products from the My Pillow business, and 2) The viewership of CNN continues to shrink and no new subscriptions are received at the Washington Post or New York Times as people show more and more disgust with the fake news business.

The President and his team have provided unprecedented access to the press to ask meaningful questions to inform the public. Yet, Mr Asshat thinks he can do better. Tell you what, The President and his team are doing great job. No one is doing a better job. 'Mr Pillow' is performing a public service, manufacturing key goods needed in this time of national crisis. Yet somehow, that does not sink in for Mr Asshat. He thinks it is a publicity stunt.

I agree with Acosta that these pressers should be better designed. They should be designed with Acosta standing outside the White House fence.

CNN Chief White House Correspondent Jim Acosta has now officially joined Chuck and Nancy floating in the bowl. Some people will do anything for the 5 minutes of fame they so desperately crave! (President Trump continues to have a firm grasp of the flush lever)

Acostya hasn't yet figured out that Mr. Trump don't play
The days of the media making the news about themselves doesn't work under this President.
So many once reputable "journolist" types have disreputable reputations now because Mr. Trump won't be manipulated.
If we can make sure that most adults are not manipulated by the false accusations and inuenndos of the agenda-driven propaganda merchants

Acosta is a dirtbag who absolutely will not acknowledge that Trump is doing an excellent job of keeping the country calm and rallying private enterprise to help bring medical supplies and stocks to where they're needed.

Excuse me, Mr. Acosta, but I am under the impression that you work for a company called CNN. Aren't you trying to promote it everytime you get called on at press briefings?
Or are you just promoting yourself? Whatever.

Other than Jim Acosta himself, I doubt there is anyone who cares what Jim Acosta thinks about anything or anybody.

So what Abilio. At least he is a productive and contributing member of the business world during this crisis. What are you and your fellow slime soaked weasels at CNN doing? Not a darn thing except creating panic as news and attacking anyone who offers commonsense and hope.
