“You’re such a smart ass!” —Kellyanne Conway reißt sich bei heißem Austausch in Jim Acosta ein…


Jim Acosta von CNN zeigte sich heute wieder mit Kellyanne Conway im Weißen Haus, und sie hatte nichts davon. Sie riss sich in ihn ein, nannte ihn einen "klugen Arsch" und beschuldigte ihn, etwas in ihre Tatsache zu werfen, die sie oft erklärte. Sie erzählte ihm auch, dass viele Presseleute ihn nicht mochten. Autsch!

Hier ist der Austausch per Daily Mail:

White House counselor Kellyanne Conway slammed Jim Acosta as ‘a smart ass’ on Tuesday after the CNN reporter asked her if President Donald Trump will ‘tell the truth’ in his Oval Office address.
Conway, speaking to reporters in the White House driveway, didn’t hold back on her contempt for Acosta, telling him she was the ‘only one around here who gives you the time of day’ – a likely reference to her fellow administration officials.
The 60 second exchange came ahead of Trump’s primetime speech on border security Tuesday night as the White House and Democrats remain at an impasse on ending the partial government shutdown.
The exchange:
Acosta: ‘Can you promise that the president will tell the truth tonight? Will he tell the truth?’
Conway: ‘Yes Jim and can you promise that you will?’
Acosta: ‘I will. Absolutely.’
Conway: ‘The whole truth and nothing but the truth so help you god. Am I allowed to mention God to you?’
Acosta: ‘I’m not the one that has the alternative facts problem like you do. Will the president tell the truth?’
Conway: ‘Make sure that goes viral.’
Acosta: ‘Okay.’
(crosstalk)
Conway: ‘This is why I’m one of the only people around here who gives you the time of day.’
Acosta: ‘Can you guarantee that the president’s speech will pass a fact check?’
Conway: ‘Let me get back in your face because you’re such a smart ass most of the time and I know you want this to go viral, a lot of these people don’t like you. But just let me be respectful to the media at large as I always am, I explained that was alternative information and additional facts and I explained it many times. And don’t you put it back it my face for all the corrections that your network needs to issue. I was on your network 25 or 26 times in 2018 and I’m one of the last people here that even bothers to go on. And the disrespect that you show to me personally, I’ll just…’
Acosta: ‘Ma’am I just asked you if the president will tell the truth tonight.’
Conway: ‘Don’t call me ma’am just to make it up.’
Acosta ist so verächtlich, wie sie in den Medien kommen, und er lebt für den Austausch genau so. Er liebt die virale Aufmerksamkeit, die er bekommt, und behauptet, dass er gerade seine Arbeit macht. Aber jeder kann seine selbstgefällige Einstellung hören, ob sie es zugeben will oder nicht, und es ist klar, dass er gerade versucht, seinen Anti-Trump-Ruf aufrecht zu erhalten.

Ich bin froh, dass Conway es ihm in diesem Fall zurückgegeben hat, aber ehrlich, es wäre besser für sie gewesen, ihn zu ignorieren.

NBC Washington Correspondent Yamiche Alcindor and former U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade join Andrea Mitchell to discuss key challenges facing the January 6 Committee ahead of their primetime hearings this week: getting a "distracted nation" to pay attention and understand what's at stake. “I think the biggest challenge for lawmakers here, as they talk about these sort of huge ideas of American democracy and sort of the experiment that we're all living in, benefiting from, possibly being brought to his knees, is whether or not they can make people care,” says Alcindor. “The American public has been groomed to expect high value quick entertainment,” says McQuade. "I think putting together a polished show can be very important."
