Why Is Brody Going To The Correspondents' Dinner?

by Jaclyn Anglis

Brody Jenner fans now have their own reason to tune in to the White House Correspondents' Dinner, if they weren't planning to already. Brody Jenner was invited to the White House Correspondents' Dinner, and he will reportedly be sitting at the Fox News table, as he is a guest of the channel. Some followers of the reality star might wonder why he is attending the event at all.

There has not been any specific confirmed statement as to why Jenner was invited this year, but it is sort of interesting that a news television channel known for its conservative views would invite someone who is beginning a new television show literally called, "Sex With Brody." Additionally, it does not seem like Jenner has made any particular political stance or done any activism known to be public, at least not recently.

However, it is worth mentioning that this is not the first time a member of the Kardashian-Jenner clan has attended the dinner. Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner both attended the dinner back in 2012, and also sat at the Fox News table. While there was no specific reason given by the network for why the two women were invited along to their table, their appearance may offer some clues as to why Brody Jenner was asked to join.

According to Huffington Post, Kris Jenner has said that Fox News is on every TV in their home. Kardashian has also shared that her parents are "complete Republicans," in an interview with Politico. Fox News, in return, has shown some love to Kris in the past, too. For example, Fox & Friends shared some favorite family recipes of hers online. Since Kris has shown support to the news outlet, perhaps that could be a potential reason why the outlet would have invited her as a guest.

And maybe that is why they would invite other members of the family, too, regardless of their individual political persuasion. After all, Kardashian has said that she is a Democrat, but she still attended the dinner with her mother back in 2012. And of course, just because you attend a party as a guest of a certain organization does not necessarily mean that you agree with all of their views. Regardless of where Brody Jenner stands on the political spectrum, perhaps the known family connection served a role in getting him an invite. Hopefully, in any case, he will enjoy himself, and maybe we will hear more about his night from his social media accounts! Stay tuned.
