At Wednesday’s White House daily briefing, Fox News Chief White House Correspondent Ed Henry asked Press Secretary Jay Carney to respond to a report that a White House official had “screamed and cussed at” CBS News reporter Sharyl Attkisson, over the unfolding Fast and Furious story. Carney said he didn’t know about that specific conversation, but elaborated in his response that, in general, “hard-bitten journalists” ought to be able to handle “tough conversations” and “an extra decibel or two in a phone conversation.”

Marxists have a hard time with communication. I mean, who was the guy beating the podium with his shoe at the UN?
Nikita Khushchev
Pot. Kettle.
Lol, no matter how you spin it Carney, you know the White House was in a frenzy over the matter and see-bs told the world about it.
“Customer service” at the White Hut — Yell down the callers, they ought to be able to handle it.
Put a little ice on it.
What a punk.
Carney is a contemptable snot-nose!
Carney isn’t making many friends over this deal, is he?
the question is not whether a reporter can handle the frenzied outburst, but rather, why was there a frenzied outburst (not to mention is it professional and appropriate).
Yes Jay, the press needs to toughen up. They need to stop being such wimps and really start to get though with these idiots in the administration.
“What a punk.”
Yeah, and I’ll bet he’d be just the guy to toughen them up.
The reporters should get together for a little “atomic wedgie” re-education.
And say that the lone person actually doing any investigating is “unreasonable” - right before going out and telling everybody how “transparent” you want to be.
Well, they are transparent quite by accident. Is there anybody left on the globe who can’t see them for the bucket of spit they are?
“Get used to it. We’re psychotic around here.” - Jay Carney
If Ms. Attkisson had any gumption she would introduce Mr. Carney’s gonads to the tip of her shoe as she severely berates him for his ungentleman-like behavior toward her noble profession.
The White House is acting guilty and defensive... what are they hiding?
