I would counter that what isn't normal has been the obviously biased coverage of CNN for the past 3 3/4 years. Something like 97% of their coverage has been negative of President Trump and his Administration, and the God-awful names he has been called by their on air guests and anchors with no push back is atrocious for a President. The latest Biden coverup just adds to their lack of any credibility ( in my opinion of course.)
Poor, whiny. Jimmy boy. CNN’s Jim Acosta booed by angry Trump supporters: ‘This isn’t normal'Real news, real boos. CNN’s Jim Acosta posted video of mostly mask-less Trump supporters shouting “CNN sucks!” at him as he tried to cover a political rally Wednesday. Though the 49-year-old White House correspondent said that sort of behavior is the norm at the president’s rallies, that doesn’t make it normal. “This happens at just about every Trump rally,” he tweeted. “I’ve covered five presidential campaigns... long enough to know this isn’t normal.” www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/cnn-s-jim-acosta-booed-by-angry-trump-supporters-this-isn-t-normal/ar-BB1ayf3d?ocid=msedgntp

No, Jim, it "isn't normal" to boo members of the media. That never happened to Jim Lehrer, Walter Kronkite, or Edward R. Murrow. That's the point. But perhaps he might want to reflect on what he's done to bring this about.
On an ironic note, if Donald Trump loses, no one should be sadder than Jim Acosta. Not a single person outside CNN's airport lounge audience had ever heard of him until 2016.
