As Twitchy reported earlier, Jim Acosta sent a fairly vulgar and hateful DM to a former Trump staffer. Full disclosure, this editor did not make that connection until she read this story from Benny Johnson.
CNN’s Jim Acosta Sends Vulgar Twitter DM To Former Trump Staffer https://t.co/Eb7SGOfW50 via @dailycaller

From The Daily Wire:
CNN chief White House correspondent Jim Acosta late Thursday night sent a vulgar direct message on Twitter to a former staffer in President Donald Trump’s administration.
“F*ck you,” Acosta wrote to Justin Caporale, the former director of operations for first lady Melania Trump.
Caporale shared the message on Twitter and later allowed The Daily Caller News Foundation to log into his account and view the message. The vulgar message appeared to be the first time either Acosta or Caporale had messaged each other on Twitter.
Sadly, Acosta didn’t get cranky with Twitchy (shucks!), but he did get pissy with Benny Johnson.
I’m sorry I offended you Benny. I hope we can still be friends bro. https://t.co/0sVdBlBuh3

Yeah, bro.
The firefighter is sorry if he offended Benny. *eye roll*
Not offended.
Just wondering why CNN's chief WH Correspondent would send a message like this to an employee of the administration he covers.
Bro.

HA HA HA.
Dear Diary,
I got so cranky on Twitter tonight I made a total tool out of myself. It’s all Trump’s fault!
Love,
Jim
I'm glad you think it's funny. It makes you a hypocrite.

He knows.
He just doesn’t care.
What you did was bullying, Jim.

Bingo.
But the poor media and stuff!
