CHRISTIAN TOTO: Amber Ruffin Weaponizes ‘Very Fine People’ Hoax.
The former Peacock talker got hired, and then dismissed by the White House Correspondents Association to emcee its April gala.
The WHCA didn’t mention Ruffin’s name in the cancellation announcement. Nor did anyone from the corrupt group explain why she was chosen for the honor and, later discarded.
She deserves better. That doesn’t mean she wouldn’t be a train wreck on the night in question.
Even by far-Left standards, Ruffin is a progressive bomb thrower, a clapter-approved satirist who hits mostly one side. That’s exactly the image the WHCA wants to avoid on its biggest night of the year.
Case in point: Ruffin threw a public tantrum on “Late Night with Seth Meyers” this week. And, in the process, she cited one of the biggest Fake News stories of the past decade.
She never should have been tapped for the WHCA gig in the first place.
I’m assured she’s a comedian but I just don’t get it.
