"I'm real bummed about tonight because here's what's happening tonight. Journalism is throwing a party. Journalism is celebrating journalism at this party. Journalism for some reason invited Brendan Carr, FCC chair who is threatening to revoke the licenses of broadcast networks."
"Now, they're giving Donald Trump a speaking position to roast us to our faces for an hour. And he doesn't have to stay for the part where we celebrate journalism and give out awards to journalists and talk about the importance of free speech."
SE Cupp condemned the White House Correspondents' Dinner for enabling President Trump to attack the press without consequence. She noted the presence of individuals like FCC Chair Brendan Carr and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, who have been hostile towards journalism. Cupp expressed disappointment that the event, meant to celebrate journalism, allowed Trump to mock journalists while avoiding the celebration of free speech and journalistic integrity. The atmosphere was marred by the decision to invite figures who threaten press freedoms.
