A federal judge on Friday granted CNN's request for a court order that would temporarily reinstate network correspondent Jim Acosta's White House press pass, which had been suspended indefinitely in the wake of a fiery exchange between the reporter and President Donald Trump a week earlier.

The ruling from Judge Timothy Kelly, who was appointed by Trump, gave CNN a victory in the ongoing case.

"I want to thank all of my colleagues in the press who supported us this week, and I want to thank the judge for the decision he made today," Acosta said outside U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C.

They should remove Timothy Kelly and Jim Acosta.

[Coach is Back!]

Simple solution. Don't call on his pompous ass during press briefings. He's an asshole. Fuck him

[funk51]

did anyone ever hear any politician  in the last 20 years give a simple yes or no answer to a simple question requiring a yes or no answer.

Even simpler, appeal the court order all the way to the Supreme Court.  Even if CNN wins it would be years down the line.

And lot's of tax dollars wasted on nonsense. -Nothing new here!

Obama banned reporters. Reporters don't control the press conference. They don't control the amount of questions they can ask or the amount of time they have. If Jim Acosta think's he is in charge of the press conference the President won't hold press conferences. This is bad precedent where every reporter is fighting for air time to become a star won't concede the microphone. Tired of liberals.

Good point Funk...

Why does the left have to sue to exist in the normal world?

Just like the Russian collusion nonsense.

[OAK]

How did this case get dealt with SO fast? It normally takes forever for an average person to move through the court system. Why is this CNN reporter so special?

[Primemuscle]

Fixed 👍🏻

If you believe CNN is biased, don't patronize it. There's always FOX News, which is also biased, just to the right instead of the left. For those who actually have an open mind, watch both or neither.

[pellius]

Why is it a legal right to get access to the White House press conference?
I mean, if Trump wanted to he could just stop having these conferences altogether.

[Humble Narcissist]

He should do just that.

Freedom of the press? What freedom was suppressed? Is Jim "I'm a bitchbaby" Acosta the only cnn reporter? What about all the reporters your hero Obama banned? Where was your fake ass outrage then?

About the Obama era bans....

There was no sympathy from The White House.  “Hey, if reporters are going to try to undermine what the President is doing, we want to know about it,” a source close to The White House said.
“It’s a wise decision to ban reporters,” reportedly said former President, Bill Clinton.  “My second-term was negatively affected by that drummed-up Monica Lewinsky scandal.  It would be a shame if that happened to President Obama.  Reporters are part of the problem.”

[Disgusted]

So how does a judge get to say who gets a pass?

I guess the judge will order DC Metro police to escort Acosta into the WH press briefing room.  And Secret Service will have to stand down.  I can't wait!

I don’t watch cnn or fox.

Though there’s no escaping the biased crap cnn put out as news
How much has their viewing figures dropped.

Hmmm okay
What about Obama routinely banned news photographers from official events. He went months between press conferences and used social media to circumvent reporters.

First lady Michelle Obama took policy trips overseas with no press on her airplane. The White House scrubbed public visitor logs of names it didn’t want in the news.

The Obama administration posted the worst record in history for fulfilling requests for public records under the Freedom of Information Act.

Anything to Say or It was Fine Because Obama was doing this
Its only Donald that is causing your outrage with this one ban ?

CNN didnt lose anything when Acosta got the boot. they had the option to send someone else. Acosta is an annoying girl that doesn't have a right to be invited to anything.

This is where liberals will tell us to quit living in the past. They only want to drag up the past when it benefits their agenda.

LOL

What about everyone else in the room? Have you even seen the clip. Everyone around him is raising their hands wanting to ask a question but Jim pretends as though these other people don’t exist. It’s all about him.

What outrage? I find no evidence to support President Obama ever taking away any reporter's press pass. He did criticize the press for their cynicism and negativity, much as Trump has done.
