This event should have ended a long time ago. More damaging to media than jokes is the look of media, politicians, and celebs in black tie every year at a weekend-long celebration of mutual massages of each other. It has LONG underlined people's belief that media is in the bag.

I have no issue with reporters and sources getting drinks at Hawk and Dove (is that still open?) and keeping good relations. But the dinner just rubbed America's face in it, and I reckon made a lot of people think the media isn't independent.

Without Wolf's contribution, the audience would have needed illicit drugs to stay awake.

I guess my naive brain just can't wrap itself around the idea that it's "necessary" for journalists to become buddies with the powerful politicians they're theoretically supposed to hold accountable. Perhaps some celebrity journalist can explain that.

Where was this outrage when horrible, cruel things were said about the Obama's and HRC? Michelle is right, the media is COMPLICIT, because all this is bringing the ratings and $$$$$.

For the first time since the election someone spoke truth to power. I am disappointed that the PRESS is among those bent out of shape by that, since that is THEIR job. The pearl clutching and outrage is sickening.

Just stop tweeting about it and focus on the one person who needs to change, apologize and be the grown up.

Yes change is good. Time for change. Too much negativity. What would our children think. Really.

Shew... maybe the cast of Sesame Street can perform next year. They should be tame enough to not outrage everyone. Just not Oscar, his grouchiness might be misconstrued as a negative attitude or Snuffleupagus since elephant = GOP. Yeah maybe they're too edgy as well.

Maybe if you start calling out the office of the presidency (and yes Sanders is part of that) for lying to you journalists everyday multiple times, calling you in the press the enemy of the people, instead of spending time attacking a comedian, you would actually do your job?

Trump decided to run after he attended a WHCD and it was turned into a partisan avenue to attack him as he sat in the audience. Your order of events is wrong. He is a symptom of a system the media helped create

Gee..... Who knew? WORDS can be weaponized! When they hit their target, the wounds are PAINFUL! Turnabout is fairplay, dear GOP! Wolf was accurate in her aim. There was no collateral damage! I hope the wounds suffered by those in DJT's administration are... FATAL!

Brian what exactly is stopping the WHCA from just making this a serious, awards ceremony without the added factors of celebrity appearances and a comedy routine? Seems like it causes a lot of headaches for everyone involved just for the sake of getting celebrities to show up.
