>> There’s so much hostile coverage, who needs a dinner to prove it?

The MSM is the Country’s greatest threat.

Don’t patronize the enabling parent companies: Disney, Comcast, Time Warner.

They can always just invite Alec Baldwin and make it a full night of circle jerking

If they invite Trump he will have to tone it down, no battle of wits possible with an inferior enemy

The media just keeps running off customers, yet they only talk to each other about their problem.

Go ahead and skip the dinner. Yall have already proved quite conclusively that yall are no more than shills for the Communists and Moslems. Skipping this dinner will raise faux outrage but it is nothing that those who would be outraged don’t already know and accept as normal and unchangeable. I ope the MSM totally boycotts the festivities and are replaced by the alternate news sources. Drudge and WND, even Newsmax and many others should be there along with that tiny segment of the MSM that is still rational such as the Washington Times, the Enquirer, and the NY Post. I would love to see those folks in tux and gown acting like they are what they are, the real sources and conveyors of News.

Would show media bias?

Conservatives have seen it for decades, they don’t need anyone to ‘show’ it exists.

I agree, but tell them you’re coming and don’t show up. That will make their heads explode again, one cannot have enough exploding heads.

Trump’s tweet should simply state to whoever is running this slug fest: “FU.”

I’d not announce I wasn’t going. I’d just not show up and tweet “Something important came up so I won’t be attending. I decided it will be more fun to watch CNN’s fake news. Maybe next year.

The Media is the greatest threat to our Republic. Don’t need a dinner to “prove” that fact.

The proof is called the evening news, although you couldn’t prove it by me because I never watch it. The teasers are all I need to see to keep me away.

I remember Colbert’s rant at Bush’s dinner. It was vicious, it wasn’t even funny. I’ve had no use for him since. Had not much use for him before, he isn’t that funny on a good day, but can’t look at him since.

You know, a good comedian can make a joke about a political figure that both his supporters and detractors and even the man himself can laugh at. I haven’t seen that kind of humor, though, in a long time.
