| 0:00.0 | This is the Daily Signal Podcast for Tuesday, November 20th. I'm Kate Trinko. |
| 0:09.4 | And I'm Daniel Davis. Well, Jim Acosta got his press credential back, but that's hardly the end of the story. |
| 0:15.4 | We'll unpack the situation with two veteran journalists, our editor-in-chief Rob Bluey, |
