CNN’s Jim Acosta was brutally heckled by a “massive, angry crowd” of Trump supporters at a rally in Tampa where President Trump is scheduled to speak Tuesday night. Loud boos and chants of “CNN sucks!” erupted when Acosta stood to give a report from the rally. One protester held a “CNN Sucks” sign behind Acosta.

Emily L. Mahoney with the Tampa Bay Times posted a video clip, “[email protected] is trying to do a stand-up at #trumptampa and the crowd is booing and chanting “CNN sucks” behind him.”

Mediaite reported Acosta fact-checked the protesters on air with Wolf Blitzer.

“At one point Acosta told Wolf Blitzer, “You can hear there is a chorus of boos and other chants from this Trump crowd here… saying things like ‘CNN sucks,’ ‘go home,’ and ‘fake news.’ Wolf, obviously all of things are false. We’re staying right here. We’re going to do our job and report on this rally to all of our viewers tonight.””
