The annual White House Correspondents Association dinner is characterized as a "total dud" following the replacement of traditional comedians with historian Ron Chernow. Chernow’s performance is described as a "sedative" for the audience. The absence of a professional comedian is noted as a significant shift from previous years featuring figures like Michelle Wolf and Stephen Colbert.
Olivier Knox, president of the White House Correspondents Association and SiriusXM correspondent, delivers a speech detailing his career hardships and criticizing President Donald Trump. Knox claims Trump labeled journalists as the "enemies of the people" in February 2017, though the hosts argue the quote specifically targeted "fake news" rather than all media. Knox shares anecdotes about his son's fear of the President and receiving death threats.
