Jim Acosta left CNN in a blaze of glory, but leaving the network wasn't easy, and it's not the only hardship that the journalist has had to face.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and former CNN anchor Jim Acosta are engaged in an ongoing war of words, with Leavitt taking aim at Acosta during an appearance at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Friday.

Jim Acosta's abrupt exit from CNN has left viewers and media insiders buzzing with questions. After building a reputation as a fiery journalist willing to confront the highest offices in the land, Acosta has parted ways with the very network that made him a household name.

Jim Acosta has launched a scathing attack on Karoline Leavitt, branding her as one of President Donald Trump's "all-star team of liars".

The ex-CNN host, who exited the network after they left him without a scheduled show, is slamming the Trump administration's treatment of the press.
