Jim Acosta, former senior White House correspondent for CNN, spent President Donald Trump’s first term making himself the story. An ultimate example of this behavior was when he lectured Stephen Miller on Trump’s call for immigrants to learn English. 

“The Statue of Liberty says, ‘Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. It doesn’t say anything about speaking English,” Acosta piously said in what was supposed to be a question in 2017. “This whole notion of, ‘Well, they have to learn English before they get to the United States’ — are we just going to bring in people from Great Britain and Australia?”
