How to Watch the White House Correspondents Dinner Live Online

The White House Correspondents Dinner will take place this weekend without a headlining comedian or Donald Trump in attendance. Instead, it will be broadcast live on major news outlets like CBS News, ABC News, NBC News, and CNN, as well as streamable through platforms like DirecTV (offering a 5-day free trial) and Peacock/Paramount+, which provides a 7-day free trial. The event's organizing committee decided not to feature Amber Ruffin, who was set to host, due to her recent critical remarks about Trump, resulting in this year's dinner being a quieter affair with potentially fewer viewers.
