Tuesday on Fox News Channel’s “America’s Newsroom,” White House deputy principal press secretary Raj Shah said comedian Michelle Wolf‘s White House Correspondents’ Dinner routine targeting President Donald Trump was so bad that she lost the room filled with “liberal journalists” and celebrities.

Shah said, “I was at the dinner on Saturday night, and I think to have a room filled with probably more liberal journalists, celebrities, and other types and lose the room when you make jokes about the president, you are probably not that funny. And probably a dinner that was created to celebrate some of the great parts of journalism that we’ve seen throughout history should focus more on that and probably not bad jokes.”
