    They should have canceled the entire ā€œWhite House Correspondentsā€™ Dinnerā€ and simply held a completely new event at the exact same time at the same venue with a different name, and kept the jokes at the presidentā€™s expense.

      Itā€™s not White Houseā€™s Correspondentsā€™ Dinner. Itā€™s White House Correspondentsā€™ Dinner.

      The Correspondents organize it. Itā€™s hosted in a Hilton hotel, not at the White house. The White House doesnā€™t control it in any way. This is simply the press rolling over to appease the fascists because they are scared of losing access.
