Jim Acosta Refuses to Defend Free Press & Julian Assange (FULL)

***Full extended version*** I asked Jim Acosta about the Trump administration's unprecedented use of the Espionage Act to prosecute Julian Assange for practicing journalism.

Jim Acosta promotes his book “Enemy of the People” about defending the First Amendment @ the Newseum, the First Amendment museum, in Washington DC on 7/13/19.

"Can we....kick him out?"
