In a stunning break with protocol, the White House said that it's suspending the press pass of CNN's Jim Acosta "until further notice."

日前，白宫方面宣布吊销CNN记者吉姆·阿科斯塔的记者证，“直至另行通知”，这一打破常规的举措令人感到震惊。

The move came just hours after Acosta, CNN's chief White House correspondent, drew the ire of President Donald Trump and his allies by asking multiple questions at a post-midterms news conference. Trump insulted Acosta and called him a"terrible" person.

在此之前不久，CNN驻白宫首席记者阿科斯塔在中期选举后的新闻发布会上提出的一连串问题惹怒了特朗普及其同盟。特朗普当场侮辱了阿科斯塔，称他是一个“可怕的”人。

White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders announced in a statement that Acosta would be stripped of what gives him access to the White House grounds.

白宫新闻发言人莎拉·桑德斯在一则声明中表示，阿科斯塔将被剥夺进入白宫的权利。

CNN said in a statement that Acosta has the network's full support.

不过CNN在一则声明中称，阿科斯塔会得到该网站的全力支持。

The revocation of his pass "was done in retaliation for his challenging questions at the press conference," the statement said.

该声明称，撤销阿科斯塔的通行证“是针对他在新闻发布会上提出一连串挑战性问题的报复行为。”

"In an explanation, Press Secretary Sarah Sanders lied. She provided fraudulent accusations and cited an incident that never happened. This unprecedented decision is a threat to our democracy and the country deserves better. Jim Acosta has our full support."

“萨拉·桑德斯的一系列解释并不属实。她的指控具有欺骗性，她所说的事情从未发生过。白宫这一前所未有的决定是对民主的威胁，美国理应得到更好的发展。我们将全力支持吉姆·阿科斯塔。”

The removal of Acosta's pass is a sharp escalation of tensions between the Trump administration and CNN. It immediately stirred concerns within the White House press corps.

吊销阿科斯塔的记者证加剧了特朗普政府和CNN之间的紧张关系，并立即引起了白宫记者团的密切关注。

Peter Baker, the chief White House correspondent for The New York Times, said on Twitter: "This is something I've never seen since I started covering the White House in 1996. Other presidents did not fear tough questioning."

《纽约时报》驻白宫首席记者彼得·贝克在推特上表示：“自从1996年我开始报道白宫新闻以来，我从来没见过这种事情。其他总统并不怕刁钻的问题。”
