Please take a moment to watch this video. It’s remarkable and important. The words themselves are not terribly surprising. They’re really undeniable. But reporters on network or cable network TV simply do not talk this way. They don’t cut this close to the reality of situation.
It’s CNN’s Jim Acosta. The video is after the jump. Watch. It’s important and remarkable.
Remarkable worlds from CNN’s Jim Acosta. Not surprising. But these are not ways reporters talk on network or cable network TV. Watch this! pic.twitter.com/2gUqdlREOd

A short time after this segment, Jackie Kucinich of The Daily Beast said something further on CNN. That was this. The words are terrible. The attitude and mindset is terrible. But what is really important, much more than the words is that this attitude and strategy are embodied in the White House’s policies. That’s what matters.
