The White House Correspondents' Association is walking back plans to feature comedian Amber Ruffin at its 2025 dinner after criticism from the Trump administration.
White House Correspondents' Association president Eugene Daniels announced the change Saturday in a note to press colleagues first shared by CNN's Brian Stelter. No comedian will be featured this year, Daniels said.
This year’s WHCA dinner is set to take place at The Washington Hilton on April 26 in Washington, D.C.
Daniels, who left Politico last month to join cable news network MSNBC, is the current president of the WHCA.
"At this consequential moment for journalism, I want to ensure the focus is not on the politics of division but entirely on awarding our colleagues for their outstanding work and providing scholarship and mentorship to the next generation of journalists," he continued.
