The Daily Mail's David Martosko asked asked whether Trump believes it's wrong for his supporters to be "menacing" toward journalists.

Acosta tweeted out video from Trump's rally Tuesday night in Tampa, which showed people shouting "You suck!" and making obscene gestures toward him.

He wrote that he was worried the "hostility" spurred by Trump could eventually result in someone getting hurt.

Just a sample of the sad scene we faced at the Trump rally in Tampa. I’m very worried that the hostility whipped up by Trump and some in conservative media will result in somebody getting hurt. We should not treat our fellow Americans this way. The press is not the enemy. pic.twitter.com/IhSRw5Ui3R — Jim Acosta (@Acosta) August 1, 2018

Sanders responded by saying that the president doesn't support violence against anyone or anything.

"We fully support a free press, but there also comes a high level of responsibility with that."

She followed by criticizing reporters for "routinely" disclosing classified information and government secrets, arguing it has put "lives in danger."

"Unfortunately, it's now standard to abandon common-sense ethical practices. This is a two-way street," Sanders said.

Martosko responded that Acosta was not "broadcasting state secrets," but Trump supporters tried to prevent him from doing his job by shouting at him while he was on the air.

Sanders responded by saying, "While we certainly support freedom of the press, we also support freedom of speech and we think that those things go hand-in-hand."
