Joe Biden, the oldest president in US history, joked about his age as he addressed the White House Correspondents’ Association annual dinner.

The president earned a big laugh when he said: 'They say I’m ancient; I say I’m wise. They say I’m over the hill; Don Lemon would say, "That’s a man in his prime".' The CNN host Don Lemon was fired last week after a series of missteps including remarks about the Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley. Biden also poked fun at the media, especially Fox Corp’s settlement of a defamation lawsuit by Dominion Voting Systems for $787.5m. 'It’s great the cable news networks are here tonight. MSNBC, owned by NBC Universal. Fox News, owned by Dominion Voting Systems.' For all the comedy, Biden also used his speech to issue forceful denunciations of attacks on press freedom and called for the release of the Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, who has been imprisoned in Russia since March.
