UPDATED: The White House Correspondents’ Association just released a statement denouncing her roast:
“Last night’s program was meant to offer a unifying message about our common commitment to a vigorous and free press while honoring civility, great reporting and scholarship winners, not to divide people,” said WHCA president Margaret Talev. “Unfortunately, the entertainer’s monologue was not in the spirit of that mission.”
Michelle Wolf's roast at the White House correspondent's dinner is raising quite the stir. Michelle Wolf is most known as a comedian and former Daily Show with Trevor Noah correspondent.
President Trump declined to attend for the second year in a row, and Michelle's roast left no one off limits including Kellyanne Conway, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross and former press secretary Sean Spicer.
Catch her full remarks below.
