This is about the WHCD held two nights ago in Washington. There was furore over Michelle Wolf's set, especially her roasting of Sarah Sanders, WH Spokesperson.
The furore is from both sides. For e.g., I found this titbit in the reliable leftie Guardian.
What caught my eye was this paragraph from Margaret Talev:
Margaret Talev, senior White House correspondent for Bloomberg, told CNN's Reliable Sources she "regretted" that the 15 minutes of Wolf's speech "are now defining four hours of what was a really wonderful, unifying night. And I don't want the cause of unity to be undercut. [my emphasis].
Now this is the nub of the problem with coverage of the White House. It's not supposed to be "unity". That means all reporters on the same side. Which they pretty much are: left to far left, and violently anti-Trump to TDS. Whatever one's views of Trump — and mine are certainly not positive — there should surely be some voices from the conservative side. We need diversity in views not just in race and gender.
Enough of media "unity"! Leave that to the China's, the Russia's and the North Korea's of the world.
