"Der Versuch des Weißen Hauses, ein Medium zu bestrafen, dessen #Berichterstattung es nicht mag, ist höchst beunruhigend", protestierte die White House Correspondents' Association (#WHCA)
Das "Wall Street Journal" wurde von Trump auf 20 Mrd. US$ verklagt und wegen "verleumderischen Verhalten" aus dem Oval office verbannt.
Es hat zuvor über Trumps Verbindungen zu #Epstein berichtet.
The full US Court of Appeals for DC Circuit kept in place a June 6 decision by a divided 3-judge panel that the #Trump admin could legally restrict access to the #AP to news events in the Oval Office & other locations controlled by the White House including Air Force One.
The D.C. Circuit order denied the AP's request that it review the matter, setting up a possible appeal to the #SCOTUS.

WTF
US appeals court won't lift limits on #AssociatedPress #access to White House
A US appeals court on Tuesday declined to lift restrictions imposed by #Trump's admin on White House access by #AP #journalists after the #news organization declined to refer to the body of water long called the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America as he inanely prefers.

“There was no president. There was no comedian. What remained at the #WHCA White House Correspondents’ Association’s annual dinner were the journalists and the First Amendment.”

Norman Ornstein was right to criticize the White House Correspondents' Association (who he called an organization of sheep) for cowardly giving an award to a reporter who was tough on Biden. This must have made Trump happy.
I realize that the bootlicking cowards at the White House Correspondents' Association were afraid to give an award to a reporter who was tough on Trump, because Trump would write a mean tweet, or have their tax returns audited.

The White House Correspondents' Association is so afraid of Trump or so opposed to free speech that it canceled the comedian they hired, Amber Ruffin, because she could have told a joke that Trump would not want to hear. #media #cowardice #politics #WHCA
Rita Powell: "I just saw clips from the White House Correspondents' Association dinner last night and I am completely disgusted. I can’t believe how they are congratulating themselves on ushering in a fascist state. We really do deserve better."

The Death of Legacy Media
"#Felon47 pretends he's a dictator & credulous media too often nods along"
His endless EOs often are presented as actual law
They're NOT
Legally-
EOs essentially are memos to his flunkies to act

What on earth is the point of the White House Correspondents Association, when you cannot even stand up with the AP? What is the point of having a WHC Dinner tomorrow night for someone who is trashing you and wants to eliminate the press? Why, you’ll usher in state-run media faster than Trump will. #WHCA #WHCD
White House Correspondents Association cancelled the comedian. Again.

Is it time to start a US podcast and independent news association dinner w/ comedian headliner?
Host it mid-west or left-coast. Heck, have it move around year to year
Don't invite the president. Invite a member of the state's congressional delegation. Roast the heck out of president and the #WHCA
Support podcasts and independent media. Create sponsorships for paid internships
No matter how much the cowardly Eugene Daniels appeases Trump, Trump continues to harm his group, the White House Correspondents' Association. First, Trump took over who would be allowed in press pools, and now Trump took over the West Wing briefing room's seating chart for journalists. If Eugene was capable of learning, he would learn that appeasement never pays. #media #politics #WHCA

By firing Amber Ruffin, the White House Correspondents' Association surrendered to Trump and failed in its duty to hold power accountable, writes John Casey.

After bending the knee to Trump by disinviting a comedian critical of the man, the #WHCA this moning was rewarded by news they're not going to pick who sits in the front row at WH press briefings.
This is Trump, people. You show him you're weak and he's going to close in for the kill. https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/30/media/white-house-seating-chart/index.html
