What Did You Expect?

Yesterday, at a press conference, President Trump once again shut down questions from both NBC and CNN before moving onto Fox News. 

 NBC's Kristen Welker who is a first class Journalist, tried asking a question that Trump would not answer. Then, CNN's Jim Acosta, who is not nearly as good a Journalist as Welker, also tried when Trump started bantering about the very tired, "Fake news" and then moved onto Roberts of Fox News.  

Roberts asked his question and many said he should have stopped and stood up for the other two when given the chance. 

Later, he did just that saying,

But, CNN's PR person Matt Dornic thought it was too little to late. He posted this to Twitter:

Maybe Roberts could have said something at the time, but I'm guessing at that point he was more interested in getting the story, instead of being the story. You know.....like it used to be. 

Jim Acosta and others at CNN, including media critic Brian Stelter almost on a daily basis take shots at Fox News. Stelter and Acosta have both referred to Fox as "state run media."

But, when Trump picks on them, CNN wants Fox News to stand up for them right then in there. 

Sorry....You can't have it both ways.
