Klavan: Members Of The Press, Your Defense Of Jim Acosta Is Why Everyone Hates You

Jacob Airey

Jim Acosta’s blow-up with President Trump showcased the true nature of the media, The Daily Wire’s own Andrew Klavan explained on his podcast Thursday. Acosta’s holier-than-thou attitude permeates across the mainstream media, the host argued, and President Donald Trump is the perfect antidote to that.

“Acosta is a buffoon, and he’s kind of a thug, he’s kind of a jerk,” said Klavan. “What he did to [the White House intern] was part of his jerkiness. But I’m not gonna accuse him of assaulting a female, I think we’ve gone too far with this stuff. When you’re working in the bigs, things get a little bit rough. But Acosta was totally out of line.”
