That doesn't "fully support" the WH's version of events.
> It was only when he attempted his third question - or possibly fourth depending on how you define the follow-ups - that the president got angry and asked him to sit down.
There ensued a tussle with the mic. And weirdly ridiculous words from the president about him being a rude and terrible person.
I'm pretty sure Acosta never intended to "mistouch" the young female intern. He was just trying to hold on to the mic.
- merpnderp 8y agoHow does this refute the White House's version? The BBC concludes he did "mistouch" the intern regardless of his intention.
- twtw 8y agoThe WH didn't say he "mistouched" her, it said he "placed his hands on her." If she reaches in to grab the microphone out of this hands and her arm touches his in the process, it is extremely misleading to write that he "placed his hands" on her.
