Media’s ‘Nerd Prom’ Delivers Insults, Gaslighting, and Zero Accountability—Will They Ever Learn?

The 2025 White House Correspondents’ Dinner, dubbed “Nerd Prom,” proved yet again that the media is learning nothing from its past mistakes. From insulting gaslighting to the press’s unflinching defense of Joe Biden’s obvious decline, this event reinforced the media’s growing irrelevance. As WHCA head Eugene Daniels doubles down on self-important rhetoric, the press continues to dodge accountability, further eroding the public’s trust. It’s clear: no lessons have been learned.
