Calling a Dictator a Dictator and calling Fascism Fascism. If everyone in the media spoke like Jim Acosta just did, they would be doing their job and maybe America would wake up.

He spent months going back and forth from acting as if he was holding them accountable to both sides and whataboutism and despite that got fired anyway...correction...shifting the host of your highest rated program to midnight is worse than being fired.

Both CNN and MSNBC abandoner their values and tried to shift to the right only to realize that Fox already had that demographic locked up. Now they are near bankruptcy and/or selling off their actual news programming. These are dangerous times
