About

Wolf Spritzer refers to events and memes surrounding CNN's coverage of President Joe Biden dropping out of the 2024 presidential race in late July 2024. About an hour before Biden's announcement was made, news anchor Wolf Blitzer posted from a restaurant in Washington, D.C. where he was enjoying a "Wolf Spritzer" cocktail named after himself. At 3 p.m. EST, viewers saw Wolf Blitzer broadcast about the breaking news on live television. Presumably, CNN called him into work from the restaurant, leading to memes and commentary online about the situation.
