    The Spin


    Right narrative

    The WH Correspondents Dinner is a national disgrace. Biden laughed and clapped as Noah cracked jokes about inflation and the botched Afghanistan withdrawal. Democrats and their allies in the mainstream media are out of touch with the concerns of real Americans.


    Left narrative

    It's refreshing to once again have a president with a sense of humor, who is capable of laughing at himself even as he goes about the hard work of governing. Equally refreshing is having a president who champions rather than attacks the press.


    Narrative C

    This dinner was nerve-wracking. Hundreds of journos, celebrities, and politicians - including the President - were unmasked and packed like sardines. Even Trevor Noah called it "nation's most distinguished superspreader event." Here's hoping, truly and genuinely, that it won't be.
