One classic is, "What is a shipload of lawyers that sinks in the ocean?"
"A good start."
But now they're losing their place. The new subjects for the sometimes ribald, sometimes outlandish, and mostly funny stories are journalists. (Watch out for the R-rated ones on that link).
Twitchy, that aggregator of Twitter social media comments, has pointed out that #JournalistJokes is a new, and big, hashtag on social media.
"Full transparency, folks. At this point in the week, we’re just SO GLAD to write about anything other than the freakin' coronavirus. We realize it's the biggest story in the WORLD right now but we're guessing like us, dear reader, you could use a little break. And what better way to take that break than laughing … well, pointing and laughing at the media. Hey, they've earned it at this point, don’t you think?"

A lot of “Woodline Attitude Adjustments” would be in order.
“What’s the difference between a smart journalist and Bigfoot?” “Bigfoot has been spotted.”
Since this is all from “twitchy,” whatever that is, and not from WND, I think we can post it here instead of clickbait.
*************
One example is, “Three journalists walk into a building. You’d think one of them would’ve seen it.”
Another: “What’s 5 miles long and has an IQ of 30?” “A JOURNALIST PARADE!”
Do journalists deserve to be mocked?

And, “Three journalists walk into bar and say ‘ouch’ – then write stories about how the bar is racist and phobic.”
There are the typical ones about gigolos and prostitutes, which aren’t repeated here.
But Dr Evil suggested, “How does a journalist change a light bulb? He holds while the whole world revolves around him.”

And Twitchy’s pick for the winner: “What are the best four years of a journalist’s life? Third grade.”
Another is, “Why are there only 2 pallbearers at a ‘journalist’s funeral?” “Garbage cans only have two handles.”
And, “How do you make a journalist’s eyes light up?” “Shine a flashlight in his ear.”
The jokes come at a time when the rancor between the White House and the media never has been stronger. Reporters repeatedly have challenged President Trump’s intelligence, patriotism, motives, integrity, ethics, finances, family and more. In return, he’s repeatedly called out reporters, to their faces, for “fake news.”

“What do you call 25 skydiving journalists?” “Skeet.”
“How do you get a one-armed journalist out of a tree?” “Wave to them.”
“What’s the difference between a smart journalist and Bigfoot?” “Bigfoot has been spotted.”

“Why can’t a ‘journalist’ dial 911?” “She can’t find the eleven.”
“What do you do if a journalist throws a grenade at you?” “Pick it up, pull the pin out, and throw it back.”
“What’s the different between God and a journalist?” “God doesn’t think he’s a journalist.”
What do you call a busload of journalists going off a cliff with two empty seats? A crying shame.
Q: What`s the difference between a dead skunk and a dead journalist in the middle of the road?
A: There are skid marks in front of the skunk.
Q: What is the difference between a journalist and a sperm cell?
A: The sperm has a 1 in 600 million chance at becoming a human being.
The Daily Press Conf has replaced the campaign rallies for now. But at some point, they will lose their value in this regard. So at what point does he step aside and let Pence run them.
Then appoint the head honcho of restarting the economy and the PDJT has that press conference.
Then you an pit the action & hope for the working class against gloom and doom. Own the recovery issue
Which one wins voters.

I remember complaints about Chet Huntley years ago.
What do you get when you have 50 journalists buried to their necks in sand? More sand.
Look, even the supposedly “tough” Sam Donaldson is totally civilized compared to Jim Acosta in 2020.
I’d argue these aren’t journalists (They are mostly propagandists for the democrat party), but great thread.
I am entertained by the childish gotcha questions and the sever lack of respect from these children representing news organizations. Bottom line, the head of the news divisions encourage this disrespect and lying, they hate Trump and love that they can employ these children to act foolish.
