[See NewsBusters for more.] White House adviser Stephen Miller absolutely eviscerated the “cosmopolitan bias” of CNN journalist Jim Acosta, slamming his immigration claims as “ignorant.” Appearing at a briefing on Donald Trump’s new merit-based immigration policy, Acosta began by lecturing, “What you're proposing, or what the President is proposing, does not sound like it’s in keeping with American tradition when it comes to immigration.” He complained, “Can’t people learn how to speak English when they get here?” Acosta accused the White house of only wanting immigrants from "Great Britain and Australia." Miller shot back: “I honestly have to say I am shocked at your statement that you think that only people from Great Britain and Australia would know English.  It reveals your cosmopolitan bias to a shocking degree.”
