Trump, for his part, said on social media the dinner would be rescheduled within 30 days (though it\u2019s not up to him), which would bring it to late this month.<\/p>\n<p>That seems hardly likely, at least not an event that would accommodate close to 3,000 people. WHCA board members are scoping out smaller venues, a person familiar with the situation said, with the understanding that, if rescheduled, it would necessarily be a pared-down event \u2014 a nod to financial as well as security concerns. A return to the Washington Hilton, or a full-scale dinner anywhere, is not foreseen.<\/p>\n<p>But whether the event can be rescheduled is only one question on the dinner table.<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The other is, should it? And for some, who already felt uneasy with the idea of the media hobnobbing with officials it covers, the answer is getting easier. They\u2019re thinking, to paraphrase George and Ira Gershwin, that this might be a good time to just call the whole thing off.<\/p>\n<div><ul><div><div><li><div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Secret Service agents respond near President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump.\" class=\"wp-image-7526\" height=\"845\" src=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/95ffa4d92099ff699526e3ca05eeac1a-1024x845.webp\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/95ffa4d92099ff699526e3ca05eeac1a-1024x845.webp 1024w, https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/95ffa4d92099ff699526e3ca05eeac1a-300x247.webp 300w, https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/95ffa4d92099ff699526e3ca05eeac1a-768x633.webp 768w, https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/95ffa4d92099ff699526e3ca05eeac1a-1536x1267.webp 1536w, https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/95ffa4d92099ff699526e3ca05eeac1a.webp 1860w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<div>FILE \u2013 U.S. Secret Service agents respond near President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump during the White House Correspondents Dinner, in Washington, April 25, 2026.

(AP Photo\/Alex Brandon, File)\n<\/div><span>Expand<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n<h4>Is the event a \u2018bad look\u2019?<\/h4>\n<p>There have always been critics. One of those is Kelly McBride, ethics expert at the Poynter Institute, a journalism think tank. McBride had written before the event that it was a \u201cbad look,\u201d and still feels the same way. This despite the contention, from the dinner\u2019s defenders, that the event is both a fundraiser for journalism scholarships and a robust celebration of the First Amendment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt undermines the public faith in how the press does its work, and it makes it looks like we are pals with the people we cover,\u201d McBride said last week.<\/p>\n<p>McBride adds that the attack was \u201cdeeply unfortunate\u201d \u2014 a Secret Service officer was shot and is recovering. The challenge now, she says, is managing optics. And security concerns could complicate that.<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019d have to make the Secret Service happy,\u201d she says. \u201cI don\u2019t know you do that unless it is in a government facility. But it can\u2019t be in a government facility.\u201d That, of course, would give the appearance of compromising the WHCA.<\/p>\n<p>To McBride, the problem evokes the inherent tension in an event whose stated purpose, she feels, has been overshadowed by the presence of the U.S. president. Any U.S. president.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t imagine how they can possibly redo this event this year in a way that would accomplish everything they need,\u201d she says. \u201cIt sure would be easier just to call the whole thing off.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some security experts disagree that the event raised serious security issues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCan it be done safely? I would argue that it was done safely the first time,\u201d said Jeff James, a retired Secret Service officer who now runs a security company.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe gunman never even got to the same floor as the president. He was stopped within about 30 feet of reaching the middle perimeter,\u201d James said. \u201cHe never came close to being within handgun range, let alone shotgun range.\u201d He called the response a clear success for the Secret Service.<\/p>\n<p>Anthony Cangelosi, a former Secret Service agent and lecturer at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice, also feels the response was successful, and says the Secret Service was prepared for a \u201clone wolf\u201d scenario like the one that occurred. Suspect Cole Tomas Allen of Torrance, California was staying in the hotel at the time.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=7523\">Irvine considers auditing several projects to explain its multi-million dollar budget deficit<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cObviously the optimal venue is one where there is nobody (else) there, like an arena, where the only people are the attendees and the protectees,\u201d says Cangelosi. \u201dBut you have to work with what you have, and they did a very good job.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>Not enough talk about press freedom<\/h4>\n<p>One of the guests attending that night was Jodie Ginsberg, chief executive officer of the Committee to Protect Journalists. Ginsberg says she attended in order to keep reminding people of the importance of press freedom. But she has been struck by how little emphasis there usually is on that subject.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a big, extremely expensive social event at a time when journalists are being laid off in continuing high numbers,\u201d Ginsberg said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt sticks in my craw that at a time when journalists are under threat like never before \u2014 last year was the deadliest year ever in CPJ\u2019s history for journalists \u2014 more journalists being harassed online, more journalists are in jail than ever before, journalists in the U.S. are being raided by the FBI, arrested covering protests, knocked to the ground by ICE,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd none of that is really reflected at all in those four days of parties.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She fears that \u201cwe\u2019re still sort of raising a toast to press freedom, yet often without having the courage to stand up in its defense when it actually gets threatened.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Former CBS News executive Marcy McGinnis doesn\u2019t think the dinner should be rescheduled for a practical reason: the money raised for scholarships had already been raised.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am troubled by the optics, for sure,\u201d adds McGinnis, co-founder of Exact Communication. \u201cBut I believe journalists who believe in true journalism, and holding power to account, will and are able to do their job when they have to cover someone \u2014 even if they hobnobbed at the dinner.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One scenario that Trump raised in the aftermath is clearly not on the table: holding the dinner in his yet-to-be finished White House ballroom.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need the ballroom,\u201d the president said, and his Justice Department has used the issue to try to pressure preservationists to drop their lawsuit over the $400 million project on the site of the former East Wing.<\/p>\n<p>That, though, is untenable for reasons beyond the fact that it is far from finished. \u201cIt can never be in the ballroom,\u201d McBride says, for the WHCA to maintain any credibility.<\/p>\n<p>Whether, and wherever, the event might be rescheduled, one guest will not be attending.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m never going to another,\u201d says Ginsberg of the CPJ. \u201cI\u2019ve had this conversation with a few colleagues from different organizations. I think the time has come to think about how we spotlight the importance of the First Amendment, of a free press, of the importance of journalism in a different way. I don\u2019t think that this is it. \u201c<\/p>\n<p><em>Jocelyn Noveck covers the intersection of media and entertainment for The Associated Press.<\/em><\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=7521\">\u2018A nightmare to think about.\u2019 Driving behavior may be early warning sign of dementia<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Weeks after what prosecutors say was an attempt to kill President Trump, the White House correspondents&#8217; dinner hasn&#8217;t been rescheduled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7525,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7530","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-facts","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Will White House correspondents\u2019 dinner be rescheduled?
