Journos, Dems Savage ABC’s Kyra Phillips for Thanking Trump for ‘Access’: ‘This is Stockholm Syndrome’

ABC News correspondent and former CNN anchor Kyra Phillips is facing blue check backlash this weekend for a Tweet she sent on Friday thanking President Trump for the “access” he gives reporters on a “regular basis” to ask questions.

The tweet, as you can see was ratio’d to smithereens, and in both replies and by quote retweet, Phillips was lambasted for her comments. New York Daily News columnist Brandon Friedman, for example, laid into Phillips as an example of “sycophancy” that has “crippled America.”

And for that retweet, he was apparently blocked, about which he further tweeted.

But he was not the only critic, by a long shot. There were scores. Dave Levitan, of the Daily Beast and the Washington Post, for one, combined burning the original tweet with an apparent jab about Friedman being blocked.

1. Do disappointed in her, actually liked her many many years ago.

2. Yeah, ask Jim Acosta about 'asking any question' ... the only time he talks to you enemies ...

is during those annoying-as-fuck 'helicopter' interviews on the WH lawn, designed to PURPOSEFULLY make it look like he has way more pressing shit to deal with than dealing with you yahoos, but he's DEIGNING to take a few minutes to pontificate about whatever HE WANTS to put out there. He doesn't ANSWER your questions for shit, and you damn well know it.

I think 1/2 the time he probably just has them land the chopper on the lawn and run it during his 'interview', then it takes off w/o him and he goes back inside to chow more KFC and watch more Faux.

BTW, that is really a PATHETIC thing to say, Kyra.

4. Personal life

Having been married to John Assad from 2000 to 2008, Phillips became engaged to Fox News correspondent John Roberts in 2010. She gave birth to their twins on March 15, 2011.

Maybe that explains it?

I'm sure her hubby, John Roberts, will put in a good word for her.
