The MeidasTouch Podcast
Jim Acosta Joins Meidas with Urgent Message to the Press

I think that the AP should look at whether or not they should sue the administration. I think the AP needs to look at other options in terms of what can be done. And I think the rest of the press corps needs to start giving some serious consideration to whether or not it's worth sending everybody into the Oval Office, sending everybody on Air Force One, sending everybody into the briefing room.

And I know some of my friends over there at the White House press corps will say, hang on a second, how are we supposed to cover this guy? I understand that. It's difficult if we're not there. But, you know, I do think for a moment, let the American people out there see this image of this aspiring autocrat in the Oval Office surrounded by just his propaganda outlets and right wing hacks.

That's not a good look for him. And I'll tell you something else about Donald Trump, Ben. He cares about having those cameras on him more than just about anything else in the world. If the press were to take those cameras away for a day or two, I think that there would be a lesson learned on his part.

I think he would say, okay, maybe I ought to rethink this idea of kicking the Associated Press out of there if I can't have the cameras with me. And so I definitely think, you know, more can be done. Not saying a boycott tomorrow. I'm not saying anything drastic like that.

But I do think some serious consideration needs to be given to, you know, doing a bit more to stand up for our friends at the Associated Press because they're such a valuable institution.

Absolutely. And I think they're trying to send a message. They're trying to say, listen, if you don't do things our way, there's a price to be paid. Now, I mean, we need to remind the viewers out there, the reason why they're doing this to the AP is because they refuse to call the Gulf of Mexico, the Gulf of America, which is the dumbest thing.

I think if you were to come up with a list of the dumbest things that Donald Trump has done as president of the United States, renaming the Gulf of Mexico would have to be in the top five. I mean, you know, obviously telling people that they can inject disinfectants into their body, that's probably still at number one, that's the reigning champion.
