Fr, if Cronkite or Murrow would around today, these opportunistic jackals that pass as "journalists" these days would flip them for a dime apiece

But Marisa, have you considered that they might be wearing pocket squares with legalese printed on them far smaller than Trump’s dried out old eyes can read? Checkmate

We need a list of who is there so we can drag them on Twitter, because they surely aren’t here.

Actually they are not even possibly traitors. Maybe you could choose words more carefully. Overstatement, especially incorrect overstatement, is not useful.

That dinner is peak access journalism which is a form of corruption, regardless of the particulars. I’ve never been comfortable with it.

It’s bizarre he’s going; he skipped 3 years 1st term & in 2025; 2020 dinner was canceled b/c COVID. If he’s going this year, press should be asking why. Prob b/c he thinks he can or needs to manipulate them due to Iran & he thinks enough will be friendly or compliant that they won’t embarrass him.

"Pocket squares" would still be an absolutely pathetic form of resistance even if the dude *could* read.

You'd think the media class, who literally have protections and therefore implied responsibilities in the fucking bill of rights, would eventually awaken to their roles.

Trying to decide if unsubscribing from anyone who attends is the right move. Even though my opinions fall clearly in one camp, I do like to see what the whole news population seems to be reporting.

AJE just did a presentation on the propaganda war of Persia, Israel, and us. CNN had a very good show on propaganda with Brian Stelter, which is gone. Long gone. Far away gone. There are no journalists, only Propaganda Presenters on our cable bill. @brianstelter.bsky.social

I would love to see any level of boycott.
Especially since applauding is practically mandated even if you or your company are the butt of the joke (CNN).
But, the seat fillers would be Trump loyalists and give many standing ovations. That's what media will show - on all platforms - over and over.

Forgot this, sorry.

Is he really going to sit up there on the dais table the whole time?
Facing the room. Eat food he will probably hate (or not eating at all). Shake hands with any minority scholarship winners.
It's a long night.

I'm predicting a grand entrance halfway or more into it.

Its not treason if you were never loyal to the republic in the first place.

to be a pedant, treason has a 'subject to the jurisdiction thereof' component much like citizenship, right?

Honestly. Why would an actual credible journalist attend the White House Correspondents Dinner? Come on. He HATES real journalists. They threatens his ability to stay in power by the easily swayed and severely misinformed.

There will be many that you don't expect to go, that will show up.

Go on in, have a couple of complementary cocktails mixed with the Trump vodka that has been collecting dust, enjoy the Big Macs and Fillet-o-Fish which he springs for on big occasions and as soon as he open his mouth you all better stand up and walk out en Fuckin’ masse.
