Tonight’s Correspondents’ Dinner One With Neither Guest of Honor Nor Audience
Canada Free Press ^ | 04/29/17 | Judi McLeod

Problem with that is that their listeners, viewers and readers do not want to be entertained. They want to be truthfully informed.

With the bulk of the mainstream media having long ago thrown totally in with the progressive left, should anybody have to guess who won’t be coming to tonight’s annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner?

President Donald Trump stuck to his boycott of the event, and it took less than a nanosecond for a highly offended media to come across like the aggrieved party.

Obama may indeed show up...but the truth is, Obama has no political sway whatsoever!!! His fifteen minutes of fame and influence have come and are now long gone!!!! End of story!!!

The best dinner was the one where Imus went off on Bubba. I’m surprised that Imus is still with us.

Interesting how no terrorist or twisted liberal EVER targets the media events. Never.

Reading ‘’Wiki’’ about the dinner, it seems that it has become more ‘’Hollywood’’, and ‘’see and be seen’’ with more people at the before and after parties.

It now makes me wonder about what they did to Nixon, frankly, and what that actually was.

Yeah we know the difference between RINOS and Trump I’d guess that Trump will try to work as best he can with RINOs, take names all the while, and air the list of names around congressional election time. At any rate that’s what I’d be planning if I were in Trump’s shoes.

Read the book, “Silent Coup; The Removal of a President”. Will answer a lot of questions.

Nixon wasn’t a conservative. The reason the press hated him was because he was a major factor of putting Algier Hiss ( communist in the State department ) in prison . Hiss was FDR’s guy . JMHO

You are absolutely correct.

The wrap was good in the article.....

“The party was over for the mainstream media on Election Night when the masses saw how off the mark they were by months of predicting that a Hillary Clinton victory was inevitable..............They’ve hardly been eating crow ever since.

The media not only likes to hobnob with Hollywood stars and celebrities, they’ve borrowed their mantra that touts: “Let us entertain you”...........Problem with that is that their listeners, viewers and readers do not want to be entertained. They want to be truthfully informed. “

If he does he’s looking for what he’s lost and can never find again.

I was fine with Nixon until I heard him, on tape, saying, “The people will believe what they want to believe.” In an instant, I quit supporting him, even though it’s obviously true.

Humphrey established the scorched earth political philosophy of the Democrat. Now, it’s obvious the McGovernites took the Democrats over in 68, carrying them to this point of demanding pro-abortion support and thrice denying God at their own convention.

Other than that being the truth, what's wrong with that?
