In an era when the media is under fire for its bias and bleeding out credibility by the day, real journos don't nibble on crab cakes and sip egg nog at the annual White House Christmas party. That event is not for us, but for lobbyists and loyalists. You can't be objective in covering folks you've just hobnobbed with. It doesn't work. Now CNN has said that its anchors and reporters are boycotting the fiesta because Trump has been disrespectful to the brand. So what? We shouldn't even be having this conversation. All journos need to skip this party.
