I checked to make sure but They didn't have anything dedicated To the journalist killed by Israel in the United States in Gaza and the West Bank.

Yet. Regimes always murder the journalists regardless of whether they helped the regime come to power or not.

Ya think?!

Incompetent? This went exactly the way they planned.

Their incompetence gets swamped somewhat by the authoritarian things they pump out remorselessly. But it is staggering, and extremely alarming.

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

She closed her replies. Couldn’t take it.

Correct.

They’re all scum for voluntarily attending that disgusting Nazi Social Evening event, and I’m speaking as someone who has worked as a journalist and still does freelance reporting. Don’t defend these quislings.

Represent*ed*. Past tense.

You shall not attend one headlined by a criminal.

They WHCD used to be run by the White House correspondents. Then they allowed Trump to dictate the agenda, decide who can get the White House and Pentagon press credentials. It is disgusting the way they relinquished their power.

This 👆

And there I thought her thick skin was integrity not just worn and jaded compliance armor.

Yeah, look at gaza and Lebanon, the Israelis are activately targeting journalists. Tho I wouldn't characterize most of the dc press corps as journalists.

Follow the Kash

Nobody was there to kill journalists. There were none there.

Is it the WHCD or White People Correspondents Dinner?

Collaborators should be called out and shame, as should those who defend collaborators.

And choosing to attend that dinner tells me all I need to know about someone’s values and priorities during a time of ascendant fascism.

That is a completely different topic and I can understand your point of view. But accusing ALL the reporters present not to care about trauma is nonsense. Some of those reporters have been in places of unimaginable human suffering.

Again you have no idea what those people have done prior to covering the WH .Take some time, look them up. I’m just saying that those blanket judgements are unwarranted

WHCA = cosplay journalists?

💯

My late wife was a journalist who faced death in Syria, Iraq, Burma, and other wars and social conflicts. She would have attended a correspondents dinner if invited.

WHCD attendees share zero Venn overlap with journalism

We talk about it the same way we talk about Brittany Spears shaving her head. "It's drastic, sure, but at some point, wouldn't you?"

“Their thing” being sucking up to power.

Israel are savages

I'll bet there was an open bar.

But Faine, they came to Minneapolis for 2 days.

And then going back to the event’s agenda as scheduled 🙄

That was what I thought about immediately when I saw the post from that Clara lady. Like you have colleagues that go to actual war zones, some of whom actually lose their lives in pursuit of sharing the truth with the world. Maybe have some perspective.

You’re apologizing for quislings, which is far more shameful.

But let me pause for a selfie.

They used to be called talking heads. Time to revive that term because there are hardly any who deserve to be called journalists.

WHCA Presstitutes

They're still going to try some "J. Jonah Jameson Saves the Day" type crap.

Including on, you know, actually being journalists.

Maybe it's time for the "it's not us, it's them" members of *every profession to clean their own houses. It's not okay to simply allow the few to dominate the rest. It's time for the hesitant and uncertain to find their sand.

More than 250 journalists were murdered by the IDF covering Israel's genocide. ZERO of the people that claim to be journalists are at this event. MSM covers for Cankles and never mentions how old and feeble he is and they ignore most of what matters. David Muir et al are talking heads, at best.

why do you hate profiles in courage

They are WH "correspondents." These cowards are the ones who take down every word trump bleats and sane washes it. They are the ones who deserve to be frightened by the violence they let the dictator promote with nary a pushback from the WH press corps. Only the women, who calls PIGS.

What really happened to it? It has to be more than just ‘the building was sold.’
