WHCA President Margaret Talev: Don't Judge Whole Event By 'Michelle Wolf's 15 Minutes' (CYA Time!)
Real Clear Politics ^ | April 29 2018 | Tim Hains

President of the White House Correspondents' Association Margaret Talev defends the decision to have Michelle Wolf as the comedian at the dinner, saying "she had a message to deliver and she did." Talev also said she hoped "those 15 minutes" do not "define four hours of what was a wonderful and unifying night."

Wolf's set has been criticized by both CNN and FOX News.

"I think she brought to the night what she thought was important to say, and her goal may not have been press unity and everyone rallying around to support journalism," Talev also said.

Potty mouth pulled by the curtain of fakery behind which the Death to America media has hidden itself for decades.

Too late! Cancel it now and forever, permanently and irrevocably. Consign the WH press corps to the flames. Their own flames.

” . . . a wonderful and unifying event.”

Yes. Wolf clearly showed the left is unified in its hatred of the President. Great job!

She was the headline speaker, but please please don’t think the WHCD committee and attendees who knew she was going to be the headline speaker had anything to do with it.

All that laughing, it was just being courteous to the headliner. They didn’t think it was truly funny.

I’m so sick of the Left acting like beasts of the field, then trashing others for what they charge them with, most of it lies. (my apologies to the beasts of the field, because the human version is so much more vile morally)

The Left hasn’t got a moral bone in it’s body, yes the whole body of people who buy into it.

These are immoral control freaks.

Margaret Talev defends the decision to have Michelle Wolf as the comedian at the dinner, saying "she had a message to deliver and she did."

I watched the full nineteen minute performance. There was nothing funny in her bit. I'm really not sure what message she had to deliver other than abortion jokes (if such things are possible) and the occasional f-bomb and bad p*ssy puns.

AND THAT VOICE! OHMIGAWD!

Was this as bad as Wanda Sykes - another black female so-called comedian who has never been funny - wishing for Rush Limbaugh to get cancer? This event has always been rife with poor taste and vile performances.

Fake news asks that the public believe only what fake media say about what happened.
