Shots were fired at the White House Correspondent's Dinner and apparently Wolf Blitzer had a bird's eye view.
WATCH: CNN's Wolf Blitzer witnessed the White House Correspondents Dinner SHOOTING.

Blitzer was headed to the men's room and was near the shooter.
Per Blitzer: "All of a sudden I start hearing gunshots in the hall right near me...the next thing I knew, a police officer threw me… pic.twitter.com/t1epcHHUsk
Per Blitzer: "All of a sudden I start hearing gunshots in the hall right near me...the next thing I knew, a police officer threw me to the ground and was on top of me... Of course first thing went through my mind, is he trying to shoot me? ... I was very close to him as the gunshots were fired."
In typical journo fashion, Wolf made the shooting about him momentarily. He thought the shooter was possibly trying to shoot him. Apparently, he now realizes he was not the target. He was just in the wrong place at hte wrong time.
There are lunatic leftists who are saying that this f*****g shit is staged in here is one of their people saying I saw it… Apparently, CNN is now in on trying to have sympathy for Trump https://t.co/fSi2MpL470

Yes. The Left is indeed already spreading fairy tales about this event, so maybe they will take the word of CNN.
Shots fired. President rushed from White House Correspondents Dinner. Still very little known.

And yet, just minutes later, they announce the WHCD is resuming. Cause apparently the show must go on!
We do all know by now that a staged event can’t be ruled out, right?

Even in a pivotal moment of his life, @wolfblitzer is consumed by TDS. https://t.co/MWU8OIrVG5

It's part of who he is. He can never change.
Yet Wolf Blitzer can’t give a single detail about the shooter other than to say “it was a serious weapon.” https://t.co/COWbhd6Y2Z

To be fair, he was covered by an officer. Maybe Wolf will reconsider all those stories about Defunding the Police.
You’re not important enough Wolf lol https://t.co/jkfc8xlH4z

That is the fact that will hurt Wolf the most.
So he can describe him?

"Is he trying to shoot me?" LOL

Libs always have main character syndrome
So Wolf's first thought was to make it all about himself. Of course.

This should not shock anyone.
Not sure I believe this, Wolf would have a broken hip if he was thrown to the ground.
— 0xC (@zerochill) April 26, 2026
To be fair, he's a little guy so he wasn't very far from the ground.
How interesting it is that even though he witnessed it @CNN has not once asked him if he could describe the shooter. 🤔

Wolf Blitzer is doing his best Brian Williams impression… pic.twitter.com/mkm1DhZ2QV

CNN is hilarious tonight. Imagine being at an event where the most powerful people in the world are assembled including the freaking president and you think the assassination attempt is targeting you.

A fascinating peek into the mind of today's Corporate Media.
