[W:768]Jim Acosta

Re: Jim Acosta

that did not answer the question

please try again

uh your question assumed facts not in evidence. You assume the intern had the power to determine how long a prick could ask questions. Is there factual support for that?

i am willing to agree that she does not
only that hurts the case of the person i am debating against
allowing us to conclude she was without authority to arbitrarily determine how long each journalist was able to retain the mic to complete their job assignment

so it is your claim she acted without direction from someone superior to her? Have you ANY support for that claim?

Re: Jim Acosta

Will Acosta Apologize To Trump For Being Totally Wrong About The Illegal Alien Horde?

The media often said that the caravan of illegals were hundreds of miles away. Yeah, because page one of problem solving 101 states that you wait until the s**t almost hits the fan before you start thinking of solutions, right? That’s another reason why the liberal media should be trashed by this president on a daily basis. They’re just plain wrong. This is an invasion—and luckily, we have a president who is going to do all that he can to keep them out. Is it time for Acosta to apologize to Trump for being totally and utterly wrong? Fox News’ Laura Ingraham wants to know. She also touched upon some of the worst hot takes from the liberal media. From those saying the tear gas was cruel to CNN saying the illegals trying to storm the border shows…that we don’t need a wall, or something. Whatever the case, the media was embarrassed again. They tried to prove Trump wrong—and failed. The illegal alien caravan is mostly male, full of criminals, and they’re not seeking asylum. No wonder why the numbers for trust in the mainstream media remains in the toilet.

Re: Jim Acosta

what authority does the intern possess to be able to determine how long each speaker is allowed to use the mic

Based on what I observed in the video provided on this thread.

I would say, the intern does not actually possess any personal authority to determine how long each speaker is allowed to use the microphone.

The Authority Figure in that room is The President of the United States of America.

I saw several reporters with their hands raised to be recognized and waiting to be called upon by the President in order to take their turn to ask him a question.

The President recognized and called upon another reporter instead of Jim Acosta.

That reporter stood up to ask his question.

Jim Acosta's turn with the microphone was over. That is when the intern tried to do her work. Her work to take the microphone from Jim Acosta to share that microphone with the standing reporter. The next reporter acknowledged by The President that it was his turn to ask his question.

Jim Acosta rudely refused to allow the intern to do her work when he kept the microphone for himself. Ignoring the other reporter who was standing and waiting for his turn to use that microphone.

Jim Acosta kept resisting the intern's ability to accomplish her work of taking temporary possession of the microphone in order to give the microphone to the standing and waiting reporter.

The Authority Figure in that room then turned around, left the lectern and started to leave the room.

That was the precise point in time when Jim Acosta allowed the intern to take the microphone from him thus enabling her to complete her work via giving the standing and waiting reporter the microphone.

What authority you ask...

I would say, it was The President of The United States via his actions without a word that caused Jim Acosta to finally relinquish that microphone to the intern which he kept rudely resisting and the standing and waiting reporter he ignored, in order to continue his turn, in spite of the fact that his turn with the microphone was over.

imho Roseann:)
