Facing a boycott - Trump cancels on the White House Correspondent's Dinner.
It would have been a half empty room with just FOX, Breitbart, and right wing bloggers.

Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump
I will not be attending the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner this year. Please wish everyone well and have a great evening!

Denied what? They can still roast him, he doesn't need to be in the room for that to happen.

All those sissy journalists had a hissy-fit and backed out. Trump doesn't need this nonsense.

Terminate this goofy event altogether.

I also have no interest in any of the silly award shows.

It paid for by journalists.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_...9;_Association

"The White House Correspondents' Association (WHCA) is an organization of journalists who cover the White House and the President of the United States. The WHCA was founded on February 25, 1914, by journalists in response to an unfounded rumor that a Congressional committee would select which journalists could attend press conferences of President Woodrow Wilson.[1]

The WHCA operates independently of the White House. Among the more notable issues handled by the WHCA are the credentialing process, access to the President and physical conditions in the White House press briefing rooms.[2][3] Its most high-profile activity is the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner, which is traditionally attended by the president and covered by the news media.
