There will be more going on this week than the investigation into the incident at the WHCA Dinner. I lay that out for you here, while also assessing the WHCA case through the eyes of a former federal prosecutor. open.substack.com/pub/joy….

The 2026 WHCA dinner was ill-advised from the start and hypocrisy to call it a free speech celebration. I admire Weijia Jiang and all on the board but Trump's plan was payback by humiliating his hosts. Now the WHCA has a second chance to do the right thing and cancel — or change the format.

A man at the WHCA dinner opens fire, and somehow Dana Bash suggests Dems instigated it?Journalists should be the first to reject lazy blame-shifting after political violence and stick to the facts: responsibility lies with the gunman, not with dissent, criticism, or the people he chose to target.

again, i ask, how would having the ballroom possibly have effected the outcome of last night? more to the point, why would the whca ever hold an event on government property?

DOJ sends letter urging dismissal of lawsuit against Trump’s White House ballroom, citing last night’s events.

The insider accounts from WHCA that I’ve seen say so much about what’s wrong with DC: people more concerned with establishing that they were in the important room than fixing what happened in it.

this from one of my hometown newspapers is absurd. There's plenty to say about Mamdani's video and the WHCA incident but linking the two is a crazy reach. Oh, and the Trib actually thinks Mamdani's proposal pied-à-terre has merit. So there's that. www.chicagotribune.com/20….

Zohran Mamdani should not use the faces of wealthy New Yorkers to get tax increases. It’s unsafe.

I believe people believed Ms Lorenz went to the WHCA because she was photographed posing against a blue background with "White House Correspondents Association" logo repeated on it. By Reuters. Tbc: there seems to be some confusion here, but its no surprise why people believed that she was there

This isn't what media literacy means. Unless, she wrote a short story about attending the White House Correspondents Dinner.

Skeet from @taylorlorenz.bsky.social
Realizing people on Bluesky somehow believe anyone who walked into the Hilton last night attended the actual dinner. Media literacy NOW!

30 years ago I was in a Frontline documentary on how WHCA dinner was distillation of insider-ism at core of "savvy" DC coverage. I published a book (Breaking the News) on similar theme back at that time. HST was making the point 20+ years earlier!

Hunter S. Thompson
Fear and Loathing: On the Campaign Trail 72
"The most consistent and ultimately damaging failure of political journalism in America has its roots in the clubby/cocktail personal relationships that inevitably develop between politicians and journalists — in Washington or anywhere else that they meet on a day-to-day basis. When professional antagonists become after-hours drinking buddies, they are not likely to turn each other in."

I’m not saying the #WHCA dinner breach by a man allegedly carrying weapons, was staged, but I am saying there is a lot that is deeply suspicious surrounding this incident. It’s on video that “shots fired” were security services. Did #ColeAllen discharge a weapon? 🤷‍♀️ He didn’t get anywhere near Trump.

So, in effect, being at the WHCA dinner last night was akin to being in any US elementary school on any given day.

After much thought and deliberation, the real solution to last night's shooting is *checks notes* abolish the WHCD altogether. The WHCA should come up with another event to honor their members.

MAGA is very upset that the NYT Sunday paper went to print before the WHCA incident happened. If you gotta be mad about something, yeah sure, go after low-fi print deadlines. Never mind all of the immediate then non-stop coverage on that thing we call the internet.

NYTimes Communications
@NYTimesPR
The Times has had comprehensive live coverage at the top of http://nytimes.com
 since the shooting. Our last Sunday print edition goes to press at 8pm Saturday. Full print coverage will appear on A1 and inside Monday’s paper.
