On the correspondents’ dinner.

The narrative Trump’s people want to convey is that the mainstream media hates Trump.

How convenient that someone made a loud noise, and that compliant media is reporting it as a “shooting”, when there is currently, as far as I can see, zero evidence that it was.

ABC News in the US called the noise “like a dish being dropped” when they first broke the story. A dish? Being dropped? At a *dinner*?
