The President tweeted his announcement on Saturday. Donald Trump will not be attending the White House Correspondent's Dinner on April 29. The President tweeted the news on Saturday.
"I will not be attending the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner this year. Please wish everyone well and have a great evening!" Trump tweeted.
Trump's decision comes after CNN, The New York Times, Politico and several other major media outlets were blocked from attending a Friday White House press briefing.

“Hes going to crash and burn this event and kill it for all time. Good for him.”
And while we’re at it a boycott of that Fake Acadamy Award show should be announced by somebody. It is no longer an award show but a conservative bashfest.
I read this on FB earlier. The comments were very positive. Why should he go? It is a waste of time.
He doesn’t want to hang out with liars.
I’m still not sure, the Press (MSM), in their self-important-freedom-of-the-press-creed, will understand why he isn’t attending. They still think it is a 24-7 party for them, when in fact, it is “WE THE PEOPLE” who this whole “POTUS thing” is about. They think it is some unicorns and rainbows pageant or something.
The White House Correspondents Dinner is an annual dinner with the media and the President.
Better yet send Bannon. No one would show and he could have a nice dinner by himself.
They are overpaid propagandists and fake news creators.
How many are really needed at the White Tower to cover Trump's tweets?
I suspect he’ll show up in the end...he’s just playing with them.
This little affair has been a political billboard for years...not a friendly little Tea like they profess.
GREAT! No more enabling bread and circuses for pampered, privileged elites. The leader of the free world has more pressing issues.
I count this as a win Laz
MEDIA:
This proves that Trump has no sense of humor and is therefore mentally unbalanced and should not be President. Impeachment should begin immediately.
One would think that the LSM scrum would be used to such scheduling.
There might be a misspelled word above.
OhMyGosh. Winning again!
LOL!
I am sure some in the rat media will push that.
He’ll probably be working.
I am disappointed in President Trump. . . why give them the courtesy of a month’s notice. 10 minutes would have been plenty.
But you know what these slim balls will do is to spend the evening pillorying Trump while he's not there to defend himself.
If they do that, he will come after them with some late Saturday night or early Sunday morning tweets.
Way to go, Trump! Drain the swamp!
