How bad was that White House Correspondents Dinner Trump refused to attend?
By Ethel C. Fenig
Unlike his predecessors, President Trump chose to absent himself from the mainstream media's smug, sanctimonious, self-celebratory annual gathering, formally known as the White House Correspondents Dinner.
Last year's crude, rude, misogynistic attack on Trump's White House press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, by a crude, rude, unfunny female comedian at the dinner, was the last straw. His staying away now proved that Trump is a man of taste. Rather than bother with these failed clowns, Trump attended an enthusiastic rally in Wisconsin, a place most of the White House correspondents know about as much about as Hillary Clinton does, given that it's a state filled with people these same correspondents look down upon.
These know-nothing newsies, or as Trump describes them, purveyors of fake news, didn't like being ignored. The organization's president, Olivier Knox, drowning in self-pity, proved it with his poor-little-me fake news speech.
