And so it begins:
White House pulls CNN reporter Jim Acosta's pass after contentious news conference
In a stunning break with protocol, the White House said Wednesday night that it's suspending the press pass of CNN's Jim Acosta "until further notice."
The move came just hours after Acosta, CNN's chief White House correspondent, drew the ire of President Donald Trump and his allies by asking multiple questions at a post-midterms news conference. Trump insulted Acosta and called him a "terrible" person.

I've been watching Presidential press conferences since Kennedy was in office and I've NEVER seen anything like the one today. The mind reels.
Here's a link to the whole conference, if you can stand it:
