White House restores Acosta's press pass, sets new rules for reporters

The White House on Monday restored CNN reporter Jim Acosta’s press credential but also laid out new rules for press conferences that will limit reporters to asking a single question before they have to hand back the microphone.

The dispute with Acosta occurred Nov. 7, when Acosta asked President Trump several questions, refused to yield to other reporters, and blocked an intern who was trying to take back the microphone. Trump called Acosta “rude,” and the White House revoked his press pass temporarily, citing his conduct at the event.
