When it comes to journalistic ethics, former CNN host Jim Acosta clearly has none.<\/p>\n

Acosta recently interviewed one of the victims of the Parkland shooting. Not a real one, mind you, but an AI generated version of one of the victims who died in the shooting.<\/p>\n

Acosta actually spoke to this non-real person as if it was real and used the AI generation to push gun control.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This is just sick.<\/p>\n

From Townhall:<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

I don\u2019t know what this is, but it\u2019s unseemly, insensitive, and creepy. The interview should never have been done, and whoever or whichever group of people thought this was a good idea, creating AI chatbots for those killed during the Parkland shooting, are ghouls. <\/p>\n

In 2018, 17 students were murdered during the attack at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. Joaquin Oliver, 17, was one of those people, and he \u201cspoke\u201d with former CNN host Jim Acosta in a surreal \u201cinterview,\u201d which inevitably led to a push for more gun control\u2026<\/p>\n

\n

Acosta: \u201cI would like to know what your solution would be for gun violence.\u201d <\/p>\n

AI Joaquin Oliver: \u201cGreat question. I believe in a mix of stronger gun control laws, mental health support, and community engagement.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to create safe spaces for conversations and connections, making sure everyone feels seen and heard. It\u2019s about building a culture of kindness and understanding. What do you think about that?\u201d <\/p>\n

Acosta: \u201cI think that\u2019s a great idea, Joaquin.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n

NEW: Former CNN host Jim Acosta gives an interview with an AI version of a deceased Parkland victim to push gun control.<\/p>\n

People reacted to this with disgust.<\/p>\n

\n

What on earth is this demonic madness?<\/p>\n

Acosta got fired from CNN, so now he\u2019s \u201cinterviewing\u201d scripted AI chatbot holograms of dead people which are pre-programmed to agree with him.<\/p>\n

Absolute insanity. https:\/\/t.co\/j4qsTSThos<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

This is so insane and evil. It should never be done. I’m speechless. https:\/\/t.co\/y7vvIzd1Ov<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Jim Acosta who took great offense to being labeled fake news is now conducting fake interviews with dead people for content and clicks. https:\/\/t.co\/6gO7QBEWFV<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 Stephen L. Miller (@redsteeze) August 4, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Jim Acosta was already beyond parody. Now he is ghoulish as well. <\/p>\n
