CNN continues to embarrass itself in its ongoing blood feud with President Donald Trump.

After taking a beating online for threatening to “dox” a private citizen who created the comical WWE meme showing Trump body-slamming a CNN logo, the network’s senior White House correspondent Jim Acosta took to Twitter to whine after he wasn’t called on during a short Q&A session following a joint press conference in Poland with Trump and Polish President Andrzej Duda.

In what amounts to tit-for-tat, Acosta — a hard news reporter — called the media event a “fake news conference,” after he questioned the friendliness of one of the two people called on.

Trump finally held a news conference overseas. But he took a question from a friendly reporter and then attacked CNN as "fake news." — Jim Acosta (@Acosta) July 6, 2017

Isn't it a "fake news conference" to take a question from a reporter who is essentially an ally of the White House? https://t.co/vD7DgAZXIv — Jim Acosta (@Acosta) July 6, 2017

This from a network struggling with its credibility in large part because of Trump’s insistence they they represent “fake news,” although this isn’t the first time Acosta has crossed the line between reporting and expressing opinion to attack the White House.

One of the two questions taken came from the Daily Mail’s David Martosko, who “acknowledged talking to the Trump administration about taking a job with them,” The Hill reported — Martosko said earlier he had backed out on the opportunity.

Acosta drew a parade of responses from the “Blue Check” crowd:

Pretty harsh assessment of media in the Obama years. Tough, but fair. https://t.co/tDHrdYGeFk — Derek Hunter (@derekahunter) July 6, 2017

If we go by this theory, then we just had 8 years of “fake news conferences” … so, pick your poison @Acosta https://t.co/0qnNwiXngC — BlazeTV (@CRTV) July 6, 2017

And even more from the great unwashed:

Again, taking questions from the unwashed is a crime to Acosta. https://t.co/41AkXkQ1ds — Tim Carney (@TPCarney) July 6, 2017
