You KNOW it’s bad when your former co-workers– at CNN, of ALL places– are calling you out for being a grandstanding chump.
Meet Steve Krakauer. He’s a former digital producer for CNN, and he has something he needs to get off his chest. Jim Acosta is a pathetic embarrassment.

Dear Diary,
I tried to ask the president if he would stop calling us the enemy of the people. He did not respond.

Acosta is a pompous a$$ of a man. That brings me back to Steve Krakauer. He’s sick of Acosta’s crap too.
Truly an embarrassment, on multiple levels. Jim Acosta’s self-serving antics give all good journalists a bad name. https://t.co/TarlLVZ3RZ

On a day journalists could honor the memory of fellow reporters tragically killed due to a deranged person with a vendetta going back years, Acosta tries to shift the blame to Trump, thus validating many Americans’ feelings about the Acela Media (that existed long before Trump).

See? We’re not the only ones saying it. Acosta is an embarrassment across the board. He thinks Trump is demeaning journalists? No. Acosta is demeaning the profession, and that’s the truth.
