Jimmy Kimmel Live: Team Trump Spreading Doctored Jim Acosta Video
In case you missed it, Donald Trump held a press conference during which he got into a heated back and forth with Jim Acosta of CNN. Not only did they suspend Acosta's press pass, they claim Acosta accosted a female intern when she was trying to take the microphone away from him. Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders later tweeted a doctored video clip from Infowars in which they sped up Jim Acosta's hand movement to make it look more violent. She should be forced to resign for this. She intentionally disseminated doctored video footage in an effort to discredit a reputable journalist. She's not the only one either, Kellyanne Conway went to work spreading this nonsense around cable news with some of her fakest indignation to date. It’s so ridiculous, we decided the best course of action was to go right to the source’s mouth, so we contacted Kellyanne Conway to answer some questions.
