White House Correspondents' Dinner, Media Decline
The 2024 White House Correspondents' Dinner is characterized as a failing event for mainstream media and Hollywood elites. Comedian Colin Jost's performance is described as ineffective, while the presence of intelligence community figures like former CIA and FBI officials is noted. The gathering is framed as a "last gasp" for traditional media outlets that are losing public attention.

Comic one got thrown out is that what is that what happened yeah comic one got thrown out as well as by bite by the way you can...I have the whole Biden bit! Well you're not gonna play the whole Biden in six minutes no But you can't go out and do a roast. Biden did kind of a crappy roast on Trump, but Trump wasn't there! That's why I clipped the comedian who was supposed to be true... It is a violation of all comedy rules The whole thing was... This is what they call the nerd ball And this is where the mainstream media gets together with their Hollywood buddies and they all go together and laugh about Trump
02:03 and Fox News. And that's basically the whole thing, and then Kamala Harris sat next to some guy who came right out of Star Trek Deep Space Nine who turned out to be a Politico guy! You see that? The black guy with the afro and he had like a sash... Keep going you're nailing it! It was like what is happening?! You are basically nailing it What is happening here!?

It's like why aren't they telling us this? Why are they telling us that now I and she has all the earmarks of one of these people. Well that's left, I mean the guests are all spooks, I mean literally former CIA, FBI general this colonel that and why not? Why don't have them talking to each other! That's what it's all about it's all about military
