In today’s column, Frank Rich drops this subtle line…

    After last weekend’s correspondents’ dinner, The Times decided to end its participation in such events. But even were the dinner to vanish altogether, it remains but a yearly televised snapshot of the overall syndrome. The current White House, weakened as it is, can still establish story lines as fake as “Mission Accomplished” and get a free pass.

Will anyone else do the same? Or is just the Times being, well, the Times?
