Amber Ruffin took to the airwaves on Monday to sharply criticize the White House Correspondents Association for canceling her scheduled headlining performance at their annual dinner later this month. This bold move has sparked considerable discussion in the media realm.
During a lively segment on “Late Night With Seth Meyers,” Ruffin didn’t hold back, quipping, “I thought when people take away your rights, erase your history and deport your friends, you’re supposed to call it out. But I was wrong.” Her remarks highlight the ongoing tensions surrounding free speech and accountability in the current political climate.
She further elaborated, humorously stating, “We have a free press so that we can be nice to Republicans at fancy dinners. That’s what it says in the First Amendment.” This statement underscores her belief in the critical role of the press in advocating for truth and justice.
