The water for the Democrats is not going to carry itself.

Ask the questions that the Democrat National Committee ask to be asked?

Put on that stupid-arse dinner. Aside from that . . .?

We share the belief, held by our country’s Founders and enshrined in the First Amendment, that an independent news media is vital to the health of the republic.

The White House Correspondents’ Association exists to promote excellence in journalism as well as journalism education, and to ensure robust news coverage of the president and the presidency. We support awards for some of the best political reporting of the past year, and scholarships for young reporters who carry our hopes for vibrant journalism in the years to come. Each day, we work to ensure that the men and women who cover the White House have the ability to seek answers from powerful officials, up to and including the President.

Our association comprises hundreds of members from the worlds of print, television, radio and online journalism. Their work, for outlets based in the United States and overseas, reaches a global audience.

We also work to encourage new generations of White House correspondents through our college scholarship programs. About two dozen winners are selected each year from across the United States to visit Washington in order to be celebrated and encouraged.





I think it had value at a time when Journalists had a code of honesty and integrity.

It waits for a republican to be elected president so it can belittle him under the guise of humor.

The White House Correspondents Association believes in an independent press... So they've created a mechanism where they gate-keep and limit access to anyone who doesn't meet their requirements and share their viewpoint. Very independent indeed.

Normally it handles the credentialing process. But when Herr Trump wants to decide, he does it himself.

In the words of one of the most under-appreciated and prescient movies ever made…

They claim we have a right to access. They don’t divulge on that claim nor mention that other people can provide that access. Apparently, when you’re a self-appointed gatekeeper you get to make up your own rules.
