YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Eugene Daniels, president of the White House Correspondents' Association and new co-host of MSNBC's The Weekend, offers context on the tradition of presidential attendance at the WHCA dinner, which took place Saturday evening. "We don't only extend invites to the presidents who say they love journalists, or who say they are defenders of the First Amendment and a free press. We invite them to remind them that they should be," Daniels said. President Donald Trump was not in attendance at the dinner.
