CNN reporter Jim Acosta was confronted at Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) over his network’s coverage of the scandals besieging Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

The exchange was captured on video by Acosta’s interlocutor, David Marcus, who is a columnist for The Federalist.

“Hey, Jim, I’m David Marcus from The Federalist, when are you guys going to start covering Cuomo?” Marcus said, interrupting a separate interview with Acosta.

“I’m conducting an interview,” replied Acosta.

“When are you guys gonna start covering Cuomo?” asked Marcus.

Acosta said that CNN did cover the stories, but Marcus continued to pepper him with questions.

“He killed ten thousand people and he’s accused of sexual assault, and you guys want to talk about [Sen.] Ted Cruz (R-Texas),” said Marcus.

Acosta offered to talk to Marcus after his interview was completed, yet Marcus persisted.

“Sir, let me just finish this interview and then I’ll talk to you,” said Acosta.

“No!” replied Marcus. “When are you gonna start covering it Jim? When is CNN gonna deal with Cuomo?”

“We are covering it,” responded Acosta.

“No you’re not, you’re not!” said Marcus.

“Well, OK, we agree to disagree!” replied Acosta.

“No, we don’t agree to disagree,” said Marcus disagreeably. “You’re not covering Cuomo!”

Marcus went on to accost him on whether he had any statement about Gov. Cuomo, but he declined.

Marcus later told The Hill that Acosta should have expected that he would face some criticism at such a conference.
