Acosta is a radical leftist. His time in the media has been a disgrace.
And Jim Acosta is back spewing the most ridiculous claims you’ll ever hear.
In a fiery segment on MS NOW’s “Deadline,” former CNN employee Jim Acosta unleashed a tirade that exposed everything wrong with the dying corporate press. Rather than facing the reality of their collapsing credibility, Acosta painted President Donald Trump as some kind of villain orchestrating a takeover of American airwaves.
Acosta declared that Trump was “trying to put together a state-dominated media system in this country.”
This wild accusation comes from the same media class that spent years acting as the propaganda arm for one political side while crushing dissenting voices.
He went on to claim, “I think the message that the people at CBS are sending people like Barry Weiss is be afraid. We are in control. We are in charge. And as Don was saying, make no mistake, they don’t care about the ratings. They don’t care about making money.”
“This is an ideological and partizan political project on the part of the Ellison’s, the Trump friendly aliens who now control Paramount, who, by the way, are trying to take control of WBN and CNN and turn it into this giant media conglomerate that will essentially act like it’s a state media organization in support of Donald Trump.”
The sheer panic in Acosta’s words tells the real story. For years, left-wing outlets operated with zero pushback, shaping narratives to fit their agenda.
Now that everyday Americans are demanding balance and new ownership groups refuse to bow down, the old guard cries foul.
Acosta continued his attack, insisting that journalists at CBS and figures like Bari Weiss should question their actions.
He demanded they ask themselves, “is what I’m doing good for America? Is what I’m doing good for democracy? Is what I’m doing good for the free press?”
This lecture rings hollow coming from a network ecosystem famous for its one-sided coverage, selective facts, and open hostility toward conservative Americans.
He ramped up the drama further, claiming, “And when Scott Pelley is saying that the people at CBS are telling him to inject political bias and falsehoods into his reporting, that should be a hair-on-fire moment for all Americans. And Don and I, we have felt these pressures.”
“And, you know, this is a very serious moment in this country right now. The American people need to be aware of what’s taking place, Donald Trump. He’s gone after Stephen Colbert. He’s trying to go after Jimmy Kimmel. They’re trying to to put together a state-dominated media system in this country. And it has to be stopped.”
Notice how Acosta flips the script. When late-night hosts and network stars spend years mocking working-class voters and pushing partisan hits, that’s just “comedy” and “journalism.”
But when Trump calls out the bias or new owners seek profitability and fairness, suddenly it’s a national emergency.
The truth is simpler: the corporate media’s grip is slipping. Viewers have fled in droves to independent voices, podcasts, and platforms that actually respect their concerns.
Trump’s movement represents a revolt against this failing system, not an effort to dominate it.
