This is so much easier to take than the last eight of these things. I think he did a pretty good job, mostly lampooning the silly things the press and Republicans have been throwing out: Michelle's arms, the first 100 days, teleprompters, his "annointedness." Plus, a pretty good dig at FOX "News." Not bad. Video to come as soon as it's up.

Obama, Comic Wanda Sykes Headline D.C. Correspondents Dinner

It's a chance for President Barack Obama to jab at the Washington establishment and perhaps chide his critics.

The White House Correspondents' Association's annual black-tie dinner got under way Saturday night with a mix of politicians, celebrities and journalists attending.

The president wasn't the only one to tell jokes. . .

  1. The hint at a media bailout got my attention.

    Devoting more money to print media/newspapers won't change people's viewing habits.

    I have not picked up a newspaper in 2 years. I can get whatever I want news-wise from my laptop in seconds. Free and convenient.

    I would like to see an even balance between print/internet but the manner in which the news media has evolved has made any equilibrium and impossibility.
