Journalists gathered in Washington, D.C., over the weekend to accept awards for their coverage of the White House, culminating in the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday.
While the event typically hosts the sitting president, President Donald Trump was not in attendance as he was returning from the Vatican for Pope Francis’s funeral Saturday. However, he was largely not expected to attend as he didn’t during his first term. Another noticeable absence was the lack of a comedian acting as the Master of Ceremonies at the event.
