No self-respecting journalist should attend this.
Donate to the scholarship fund if you want, but steer clear of the event. Nothing good will come from showing up.

But I also spent a night with the crew in Venice Beach during the second season of The Real World and the highlight was an extended argument over who should clean up after a dog that didnβt make it on TV.

Who hires Lori Lightfoot for political analysis?
Despite winning one term as Chicagoβs mayor, it turned out she wasnβt all that good at, you know, politics.

Pet peeve: People throw the word "notoriety" around as if it were simply a synonym for "famous." It is in fact the state of being famous or well known for some bad quality or deed.
Which is not good, and rarely what is intended.
And that hasn't ever struck *anyone* as a bad thing?
