I assume this revised code of conduct includes brown nosing and butt kissing as the only acceptable behaviors. Trump can dish it out but he can't take it.
It's obvious acosta cannot handle what happened to him.
Being respectful to people is far from the lefts position, can you tell us the only WH press briefer who has needed SS for their protection?
To coincide with Acosta being allowed to return to the White House, Sanders implemented a series of rules that will govern White House press conferences going forward. Journalists are now only permitted to ask one question and must yield the floor to another reporter unless a follow-up question is granted. However, a handful of reporters – including Acosta -- politely asked multiple questions during Tuesday’s press briefing.
While Acosta appeared to technically violate the rules that were put in place as a result of his actions, Sanders didn’t call him out and answered his second and third questions.
ABC reports White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and deputy chief of staff for communications Bill Shine sent a letter to Acosta, CNN's Chief White House Correspondent, warning him that his credentials could be suspended or revoked again if he didn't follow a new code of conduct for President Donald Trump's press conferences.
At one time, the White House wanted to have video hookups to allow local stations to participate. There would be monitors set up for them and Sanders would call on those reporters. I actually though it was a good idea for some questions to originate outside the bubble that the White House correspondents seem to be in.
On another note, does it actually make sense to have the mass media the way it is: (a) be present at a conference or show up 20 min later, set up a camera, and blab about it and (b) later dissect it.
Part (a) seems to be well covered by civilians (some people get asked via twitter to enrich the media by giving their video away) and by the participants like Trump tweeting or the C-Span covering Congress live. So, maybe just (b).
^Silly propaganda. Didn’t happen. There was no sparring.
We all saw what happened, Acosta asked 3 questions.
Rules only permit ONE question and ONE follow-up.
If the White House wants to, they can ban Acosta today.
The way to punish Acosta is to change his seat to the back of the room. Then follow Robert's rules of order and do not recognize him. The clowns in the WH do not know how to run a press meeting.

Those guidelines are entirely unenforceable. If they press for compliance, they are going to be thoroughly sued for their trouble.
Oh, that's rich - letting your bias show. LMAO ...
Back at ya !!! See how easy that is ?
Your Alice in Wonderland logic is a ploy to attack the messenger sidetracking and avoiding the issue at hand, which is the WH press briefing, not the OP.
Adding to your failure I'm not part of the WH press and unlike them I admit I'm bias as a matter of choice. I'm not claiming to be a uncensored journalist using lies and deception in their disinformation operation to hide the truth from the public. There are many examples of outright lies by leftist media trying to deceive the public. Its MSNBC & CNN's daily devotion.
You sure can tell that this president is completely bewildered and terrified by the press.
That's on top of his lack of understanding of the basics of the First Amendment.
