The Divine Miss M has added her opinion on the Michelle Wolf remarks.

@BetteMidler
Michelle Wolf : Mr. Trump, she said, “has helped you sell your papers and your books and your TV. You helped create this monster and now you are profiting from him.” AND A TRUER WORD WAS NEVER SPOKEN!

That the media (especially the lapdogs of the White House Correspondents' Association) are complicit, in fact responsible, for the rise of Trump. They are to blame and they hate that some of us have noticed. So they deflect to criticism of her supposed "vulgarity."

They want access at all costs, even the death of democracy as we know it. I don't think we can trust the mainstream media, certainly not the White House correspondents.

Notice that while everyone was clutching their pearls over this, Trump was holding a Nazi rally in Michigan. Among numerous crimes which have gone on while the press was tut-tutting.

31. The White House press briefings
Tue May 1, 2018, 08:24 AM

are propaganda. All the questions are submitted in advance. You can see SHS reading the written responses. Anyone going off script is barred from returning to future briefings, thus losing a cake job that requires nothing more than the ability to write what SHS spews. There are no followup questions. This is the same policy employed by the Bush 43 Administration.

Now she needs a show opposite of rossanne's, same time. You know she was really good when they act out in this manor, and we need more of this calling them out with the truth, which is what they are really pissed about. The can't stand hearing the truth, and many of them wouldn't know the truth if it hit them in the mouth with it. Their boss is scared to death of the truth, and getting more desperate as the free press and investigations uncover it, and expose him. Come on Networks, do a show with her , and pit it against rosanne.

impeachment as well.

Remember with the media...the bigger they build you up, the bigger they will make you fall. I.E. The impeachment will be spectacular...it will be the trial of the century and we will will hang on their every word and tune in nightly to see the updates.

and therefore trying not to pile on one of "their own"? I'm not familiar with SHS's credentials except insofar as being related to a former governor, but I've long thought that most of the WH press secretaries are not historically members of the press. Please feel free to disabuse me of that belief if I'm wrong though. Media spokespersons are hired not to present "the facts and nothing but the facts", but to put a company's or a person's best spin on a situation.
