Round Two: White House Spox Carney Goes After Fox’s Henry Again
White House press secretary Jay Carney just can’t control himself when it comes to answering questions from Fox News’ Ed Henry.
For the second day in a row Henry pressed Carney about the Obama debt ceiling plan and what he saw as the lack of transparency from the administration:
Henry: So put it out there. Let the American people see it.
Carney: I think I’ve answered the question.
Henry: One quick thing.
Carney: I know you’re creating a thing here for Fox.
Henry: No, no I’m not. You said a minute ago… That’s not what I’m doing. And you know better than that.
It looks like Media Matters isn’t the only one who has declared war on Fox. Carney’s job is to promote and defend the Obama administration’s policies and not to attack or belittle the reporters covering the White House, but he seems to have forgotten that over the last two days.
Carney has already lost the first two rounds to Henry, and for the administration’s sake he should avoid a round three today before he winds up embarrassing himself even more.

Jay Magoo, Mr. Magoo of the comics made a lot more sense than you. Hope you are not a decendent.
Looks like Dr. Gupta’s conditioning on Mr. Henry when he was at CNN seems to be working.
Hmmmm Yon Bill Yon, a typical mindless ad hominem attack by a Republican troll. Adding nothing.
Not only does magoo need glasses but a hearing aid. How can Fox be lying and cheating, especially cheating. Who have they been cheating on, not anyone that I know. The only ones that I know that have been cheating is Tiger Woods, John Edwards, Geitner (tax cheat), Chris Dodd, Barney Frank, et al. And, how about the Weiner, Wu, etc. My goodness, you don’t hear this news on the left wing liberal state controlled media; i.e, NBC, ABC, CBS, NPR, MSNBC, etc. wow Magoo, maybe you need some new dentures. How about a complete makeover. Your the troll. You people can’t handle the truth, you wouldn’t know the truth if it hit you in the noggin.
Let’s not forget who targeted Fox some time ago, before Murdock was caught doing exactly what others in lib media do…Mr. Nobama.
Mr. Magoo, yep Fox has been lying all along…..thats why they lead every other network in ratings. While we are talking about lying and networks, lets talk about how the majority of networks fail to report the role of dems in our financial crisis. Lets talk about Barney Frank blocking attempts at reform of Freddie and Fannie who and I quote said “These two entities—Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac—are not facing any kind of financial crisis”. Hmmmm how did that work out? Lets talk about how the media covers the changes to the Glass-Steagall act signed into law by Clinton which made banks “too big to fail”. Lets also talk about how the media lies about the commodities futures moderenization act which deregulated commodities such as default swaps.

This is cute. AIM is now positioning Fox News as a victim. After years of Fox News’ slanderous attacks on everything good and decent in the Democratic party, Fox is now being found out for the hackers and liars that they really are and the rest of the conservative bloggers are adopting a bunker mentality. Sorry, guys. It doesn’t wash. Fox has been lying and cheating too long, they’ve got it coming.
