CNN's Jim Acosta refused entry to the White House

White House suspends press pass for CNN reporter Jim Acosta on Wednesday he sparred with President Trump at a press briefing. Acosta posted a video on Twitter showing that he is denied entry.

Earlier Wednesday, Acosta had questioned Mr. Trump about his rhetoric about the caravan heading towards the US border. Mr. Trump was angry at Acosta and tried to move on to another question. An intern from the White House came to take Acosta's microphone, but Acosta went away and said, "Forgive me, ma'am" and tried to continue interrogating.

Mr. Trump refused to answer saying "put the microphone". After the microphone was passed to NBC's Peter Alexander, Mr. Trump continued his tirade against Acosta.

"CNN should be ashamed to see you working for them," said Trump. "You are a rude and terrible person, you should not work for CNN.

When Alexander said "I think it's unfair," Mr. Trump went on to talk to Acosta, saying, "The way you treat Sarah Huckabee is horrible, and the way you treat others is horrible. You should not treat people this way. "

Mr. Trump told Alexander "to go forward", but when Alexander defended Acosta, Mr. Trump said, "I'm not a big fan of you either … you it's not the best. "

Acosta tried to get up and say something, Mr. Trump told him to "sit down".

"When you report false information, as CNN often does, you are an enemy of the people," said Trump.

The White House announced that she was suspending the "hard pass" of Acosta, which allows her to travel to the White House because she "will never tolerate that a journalist pose her hands on a young woman trying to do her job as an intern at the White House ". "But the video recorded during the press briefing shows Acosta putting her arm on hers while she was trying to pick up the microphone." It seemed like an accident since he said, "Excuse me." me, ma'am "and is far from her.

Acosta tweeted the declaration of the White House was a "lie".

CNN issued a statement claiming that the White House press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, had "lied" in her statement.

"This unprecedented decision is a threat to our democracy and the country deserves better," CNN said in a statement. "Jim Acosta has all our support."
