From Breitbart: Americans hoping for a rematch between President Donald Trump and Jim Acosta will have to lay those dreams to rest in a light of reports that Acosta will be leaving CNN.
Oliver Darcy, a former CNN reporter now with Status News, said that sources within the network indicated the CNN veteran who notoriously filibustered every press conference during Trump’s first term will be leaving the network in response to recent leadership decisions.
Earlier this month, Darcy reported that CNN CEO Mark Thompson had booted Acosta from his 10 a.m. weekday time slot and planned to give him the graveyard shift from 12 a.m. to 2 a.m., a move that Acosta views as a gesture toward President Donald Trump.
Darcy, a former CNN reporter, on Monday night said the 18-year veteran of the network has indicated to associates that he plans to leave the network after being removed from his 10 a.m. weekday time slot by CNN CEO Mark Thompson. In his report on Monday, Darcy confirmed that Acosta indeed plans to leave the network.
During Trump’s first term in office, Acosta engaged in rude confrontations with Trump at nearly every press briefing.
