Acosta, Hannity Get Into Vicious Battle Of Wits And Jim Is Unarmed
CNN White House correspondent, and anti-President Donald Trump journalist, Jim Acosta has taken aim at Fox News hosts.
Namely, the number one rated cable news show host Sean Hannity and the popular Tucker Carlson whose shows dominate the ratings.
“Hearing Sean Hannity is taking some shots at me over my book,” Acosta said in a tweet on Friday. “Two things Sean…
“#1 I offered to come on your show and talk about the book and you guys declined, Sad!” the CNN grandstander said.
“Sad! #2 you’re in the book. It was that time you had a chance to say something to my face but didn’t. Enjoy!” he said.
Acosta, who plays a tough man on Twitter, was quickly taken to school by Hannity who torched him in his next tweet.
“It’s true Fake News Acosta’s reps have BEEN BEGGING to be on the #1 show on Cable News & 618 Of the top Talk Radio stations.
“Sorry, I wont subject my audience to conspiracy theory fake news. Go hawk that garbage on the lowest rated cable channel u work for,” he said.
But before Acosta starts playing the victim, take a look at how this entire saga started in his book “Enemy of the People: A Dangerous Time to Tell the Truth in America.”
“Before long, we boarded the press buses for the main event, the Trump-Putin joint news conference. As I set foot on the bus, I immediately spotted two of my biggest critics: Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity, Trump’s chief propagandists at Fox, were seated on the bus, too.
“And you know what? After all their attacks on me during their prime-time “state TV” programs, they didn’t say a word to me.
“You’d think they would have had something to say to my face, but their fauxmacho man bullsh*t, as it turns out, seems to stop at the doors at the Fox News headquarters,” he said.
