Fox News announced on Wednesday that it’s actually supporting CNN in their efforts to restore Jim Acosta’s White House credential after the network filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration.

The administration suspended Acosta's "hard pass" after he refused to surrender his microphone and acted unprofessionally during a press conference last week.

In a statement, Fox News said it plans to “file an amicus brief with the U.S. District Court” in support of Acosta, adding, “Secret Service passes for working White House journalists should never be weaponized.”

Press Secretary Sarah Sanders issued a scathing statement citing “more grandstanding from CNN” and pointing out that the network has other reporters who are still allowed to enter the White House.
