'Go home' chants at Jim Acosta weren't racist

Jim Acosta, a Washington-based CNN reporter, visited South Carolina to cover President Trump’s rally on Monday night. Accordingly, Trump supporters chanted, “Go home, Jim!” at the correspondent, who’s become a favorite target of the president’s base (a status he clearly relishes to some extent).

The chant for Acosta to “go home” was described in a Buzzfeed report on the rally as “a taunt that sounded especially menacing when aimed at a reporter with a Hispanic surname and a father who fled Fidel Castro’s Cuba.”
