Federal Judge Orders White House To Restore Press Credentials To CNN's Jim Acosta

NPR  

Federal Judge Orders White House To Restore Press Credentials To CNN's Jim Acosta In a narrow ruling, Judge Timothy Kelly, a Trump appointee, said the White House did not provide CNN's Jim Acosta with the due process required to legally revoke his press pass. STEVE INSKEEP, HOST: A federal judge has ordered the White House to immediately restore the press pass of CNN reporter Jim Acosta. TOTENBERG: What he said was that the only notice that Acosta even arguably got was what the president said to him at the press conference, that he's a terrible reporter and that it then, in retrospect, tried to justify that with the notion that Acosta had laid hands on a White House aide, which was, he said, likely untrue. INSKEEP: That's NPR's Nina Totenberg telling us that a judge appointed by President Trump ruled against the White House today, saying that Jim Acosta of CNN must be returned his permanent press pass.
