<![CDATA[A lot of people angry and outraged about the jerks attending the White House Correspondents' Dinner.]]>A lot of people angry and outraged about the jerks attending the White House Correspondents' Dinner. A lot of journalists are refraining. But too many are in attendance regardless.

I picture this is also the kind of thing that will happen if he gets that damn "ballroom" built. People just can't seem to resist a party, even one thrown by their sworn enemies.

"Instead of relying on a count of the alleged shooter's likes and reposts, you can just browse his profile here. Seems like a pretty typical Bluesky poster. Nothing he reposted from any of the listed accounts in the skeet going around is a call for political violence."

And do it goes with tech journalists, automotive journalists, and so many other industry journalists who identify with the subjects of their coverage, not their readers.

This was not early Woodward-and-Bernstein dynamics.

Someone pointed out this event was set up most like the ending scene in Cabaret and that looks about right.
