[See NewsBusters for more.]  So now CNN has a problem with anonymous sourcing? Showing no bounds when it comes to the network's hypocrisy, Jim Acosta on Monday accused the Trump White House of lacking “guts” by not naming names when it comes to any disagreements with Doctor Anthony Fauci. At a press briefing, Acosta huffed, “Why is the White House trashing Dr. Fauci and sending out opposition research-like memos to reporters? The President has gone off on anonymous sources in the past. Why not have the guts to trash Dr. Fauci with your own names?”
