“Journalism is Not a Crime,” Says President Who Criminalized Journalism
Front Page Magazine ^ | 30 Apr, 2023 | Daniel Greenfield

The Disinformation Governance Board was the first step in criminalizing journalism.

In happier times, Americans could afford to buy food and the White House Correspondents’ Dinner had been shuttered due to lack of interest. And then Biden arrived, and Americans can’t afford food, but Nerd Prom is in full swing with woke celebs and talking heads joining together to celebrate the tyrant and jeer his opponents.

All hail the party and its ‘journalism’.

President Joe Biden on Saturday used the traditionally lighthearted White House Correspondents’ Dinner to drive home the importance of the free press amid threats to democracy at home and abroad.

“Tonight our message is this: journalism is not a crime,” Biden told the applauding crowd.

Absolutely not.

Vice President Joe Biden was in the Orlando area last week headlining a private fundraiser for Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson. Journalist Scott Powers of the Orlando Sentinel was selected as the pool reporter, but to prevent him from mingling with guests before the veep arrived, Biden’s team basically locked the journalist in a closet.

“Turns out the veep hadn’t arrived, but about 150 guests (minimum donation $500) were already in the house,” the Sentinel’s recount reads. “So to prevent Scott from mingling with the crowd, a member of Biden’s advance team consigned him to a storage closet — and then stood outside the door to make sure he didn’t walk out without permission.”

Powers was locked in the closet for about 90 minutes and allowed out only to hear Nelson and Biden deliver their remarks. He was then locked back in the closet in the private home of developer Alan Ginsburg.

Things got more exciting when the Biden campaign colluded to censor the journalists involved in breaking the story of Hunter Biden’s laptop, censored materials related to COVID

The irony, the disinformation, the projection. I declare sometimes it is hard to distinguish reality. We are truly in 1984.

Viewer, for the White House Correspondence Dinner was terrible about 3,000,000. FNC got their butt kicked by CNN. the last two years were failures because the nation was shut down and no one cared about the Washington Press Corps or our current loser POTUS, Democrat, Joe Biden.

The comedy drudge they brought forth was not entertaining at all and Biden was his usual self....it was past hid bedtime!!!

Very few. The impenetrable fortress of protection Biden gets is impossible to overstate. He took millions in quid pro quo money from foreign governments including the ChiComs, showered with his Daughter but you won’t find 5 people in a random sample of 20 who know about either.

As long as Democrats agree with it, journalism is great.
