Don’t be angry with that woman who was caught on camera at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner “texting” during the National Anthem. She wasn’t texting after all, but taking notes.

Helena Andrews, who covers gossip for the Washington Post, wants you to know that’s how reporters take notes in 2015 — on their phones.
Apparently someone saw me on TV "texting" during the dinner. FTR I was taking notes. On my phone. Because it's 2015. #WHCD

@helena_andrews We're all well aware of the year. Respect for the National Anthem is timeless.

@helena_andrews Girl I'm all for that but show respect for this country during the National Anthem. Choose a different time for notes. #WHCD

@helena_andrews All Americans should pause during national anthem & show respect for country (unless you're in the middle of saving a life)

@helena_andrews Your snarky reference to"because it's 2015"makes you look worse; doesn't matter what year it is, patriotism still important!

@helena_andrews I would Google to see who you are but you're just a nobody with no respect for this country or those who serve it

@helena_andrews I understand you were doing your job but when the national anthem starts you stop what you are doing and show some respect.

@helena_andrews and to think I fight for your freedom. Everyone who's replied to this is right. You show no respect and are a nobody

@helena_andrews. Sure you were. Idiot.

@helena_andrews I do give you respect for admitting to your stupidity but the rest of your tweet is pure ignorance and disrespectful #whcd

@helena_andrews Please. You couldn't hold off "taking notes" until our military was done playing the National Anthem? You showed 0 respect.

@helena_andrews Your notes are not more important than the anthem. #StopWithTheExcuses #WHCD #Tacky #NotClassy #GoBlockMe #YoureFired
