Acosta: ‘There Was Some Covid Denialism’ at CPAC

‘Some in the crowd actually booed those organizers for just trying to practice some Covid safety’

EXCERPT:

ACOSTA: "And we should note there are sessions at this conference dedicated to advancing Trump’s big lie that he won the election. We should also note that Senator Josh Hawley was defending his role and his attempts to overturn the election results. He got a standing ovation for that. And there is some Covid denialism going on at the CPAC this year, Jake. At one point the organizers urged the audience to remember to put on their masks. Because they did that, some in the crowd actually booed those organizers for just trying to practice some Covid safety. Jake?"

TAPPER: "I hope you’re triple maxing, Jim — masking rather. Triple masking."

ACOSTA: "Absolutely."
