Comedian Amber Ruffin is saying she's "glad" she was canceled from hosting the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
While on 'The Late Show with Steven Colbert,' the comedian spoke about the Association's annual gala on April 26, saying "it would be impossible to make jokes about both sides."
The White House Correspondents' Dinner this year was missing key figures and moments, marking an offbeat, lackluster evening. President Trump, who skipped the event as usual, left no surprise. But the true shock came when comedian Amber Ruffin, the originally planned entertainer, was fired after sharp political commentary, leaving the dinner without its comedic edge. The event, once a venue for bold speeches and satire, became a more somber affair, with journalists recognizing each other's work in a vacuum, devoid of the critical jabs and humor that once defined it.
