“Nightly Show” host Larry Wilmore called out several reporters in the audience as he delivered remarks at President Obama’s last White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
“Hey, Wolf, I’m ready to project tonight’s winner — Anyone who isn’t watching The Situation Room,” Wilmore said to CNN host Wolf Blitzer.
Wilmore also picked on CNN host Don Lemon, and said, “some of America’s finest black journalists are here tonight. Don Lemon’s here too.”
Lemon flipped Wilmore the bird in response:

Watch Wilmore’s full remarks:
He left out more than a few.
Most of the humor at these events is forced and forgettable. Worse, it requires a president to be an entertainer, which is a silly idea.
The whole affair is really a bunch of careerists celebrating themselves: for what?
Oh Larry!, from you lips to God’s ears “Morning Joe is so far up Trump’s ass they bumped into Chris Christie” BOOM!!
That was perfecting Obama’s lament and head-shaking at the Media’s dereliction of scrutinizing The Donald…thank you Sir!
A solid joke, but c’mon, how could he fail to work in “feel the burn?”
