CNN\u2019s Jim Acosta is Fed Up with \u2018Useless\u2019 Sean Spicer, White House Press Suppression: WATCH<\/b><\/p>\n

\"Jim<\/p>\n

CNN\u2019s Jim Acosta has had it with \u201cuseless\u201d Sean Spicer and the stonewalling from the White House on issues of national importance.<\/p>\n

Said Acosta this afternoon after attending an off-camera<\/a> press gaggle at which Sean Spicer (who is apparently searching for his replacement) took a question from a Russian reporter and not CNN:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe White House press secretary is getting to a point, Brooke, where he\u2019s just kind of useless. You know, if he can\u2019t come out and answer the questions and they\u2019re not going to do this on camera<\/a> or audio\u2026why are we having these briefings or gaggles in the first place?\u201d<\/p>\n

Acosta said that Spicer has still not got an answer for the press on whether Trump believes in climate change, a question that was posed weeks ago.<\/p>\n

Watch:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Acosta also tweeted: \u201cMake no mistake about what we are all witnessing. This is a WH that is stonewalling the news media. Hiding behind no camera<\/a>\/no audio gaggles. There is a suppression of information going on at this WH that would not be tolerated at a city council mtg or press conf with a state gov. Call me old fashioned but I think the White House of the United States of America should have the backbone to answer questions on camera<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

At off camera<\/a> no audio briefing, Spicer took a question from a Russian reporter but not from CNN. #pravda<\/a><\/p>\n
