As Twitchy reported earlier, CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta is augmenting his bookstore tour in support of “Enemy of the People: A Dangerous Time to Tell the Truth in America” by tweeting photos of paragraphs right out of the book, describing how journalists “weren’t really human” to Americans thanks to “the climate of fear that Trump had created.”

The Free Beacon’s David Rutz has been compiling a list of reviews of Acosta’s book about Acosta, and surprisingly enough, even NPR thought that it was too much about Acosta and less about the danger of telling the truth in America.

NPR review of @acosta's book is unkind: "Acosta sounds less like a reporter than a rival athlete." The book is "an opportunity to relitigate his spats with the White House" rather than understand the collapse of trust in the press. https://t.co/tLvxKLgrvT — David Rutz (@DavidRutz) June 13, 2019

The Guardian: Acosta "takes Trump's bait again."

"Acosta … captures the shock that reverberated with his upset win. But he fails to place the rage and resentment in the larger context of how America and the west reached this inflection point." https://t.co/yaptRmOAXl — David Rutz (@DavidRutz) June 13, 2019

Variety's pretty kind: "Acosta later became a symbol of America’s belief in the First Amendment when CNN prevailed and got its employee reinstated." https://t.co/Peh0mOE1Bq Of course, they did give us the story that produced this photograph. pic.twitter.com/ln6y0n7UhW — David Rutz (@DavidRutz) June 13, 2019

That photo’s going up on Acosta’s dressing room mirror for sure.

Oh no! I wonder if he’s ok. These are dangerous times for him bring such a firefighter — Sheila Maupin (@Maupsh) June 13, 2019

Actually, it unintentionally fully explains that collapse. — Plastic Straw Cartel Chief (@rcjparry) June 13, 2019

Unkind but not untrue. — Daniel Feske (@DanFeske_UHC) June 13, 2019

NPR is engaging in veiled praise, not criticism. Acosta would love to consider himself a rival, an equal complete with microphone and cape. — Potemkin Coffee Shop (@IggyBeeBop) June 13, 2019

And they even lie for him. He did manhandle that intern, I watched it live on TV, the "doctored" video talking point is a lie. And does anyone really believe the story of him giving up his chair? — Johnny Flyover (@john1gun) June 13, 2019

I was watching it on TV in real time @Acosta. I was a manager for a long time, if you treated one of my employees like that you would never be let in the door again. — Johnny Flyover (@john1gun) June 13, 2019

That sounds fairly accurate. Without Trump, no one would even know Acosta's name. Now he has a book deal. — Alex Lekas (@TheAlexLekas) June 13, 2019

Reporters like Jim Acosta that write opinion pieces like this book while they are reporters instantaneously invalidates – or at the very least calls into question – their reporting credentials. — tweetreadingaccount (@tweetreadingac1) June 13, 2019

Oh, he didn’t need to write a book to do that.

@Acosta is an activist disguised as a reporter. Like all of the #MSM. He couldn’t be objective if his life depended on it. #FakeNews — TC Loughery ?? (@gingerloughery) June 13, 2019

Someone needs to write a book about the dangers of the msm and the false narrative they continue pushing on the American people. — Mandy ☕?? (@SpringSteps) June 13, 2019
