President Donald Trump attended the White House Correspondents' Association dinner, which was rescheduled from April.
Trump applauded Wall Street Journal reporters receiving the Katharine Graham Award for Courage and Accountability for investigating his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.
CNN's Wolf Blitzer recounted that Trump filed a $20 billion lawsuit against the Journal and that reporter Khadeeja Safdar's home address was revealed, forcing her family to relocate.
Despite his ongoing lawsuits and criticism of the press, Trump shook hands with the Journal journalists at the dinner.
Trump delivered an hour-long speech with jibes and jeers, which he described as toned down from the original April version.
