In light of leaked emails regarding the 2012 Benghazi attack, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney and Fox News White House correspondent Ed Henry went head-to-head during Thursday’s press briefing. At one point, the press secretary took a jab at the reporter and his employer. After Henry questioned Carney over why the Ben Rhodes-authored emails focused on an anti-Islamic video rather than the terrorism aspect of the deadly siege, the press secretary remarked that the CIA-produced talking points at the time referred to protests at the Benghazi consulate as being inspired by similar demonstrations outside the American embassy in Cairo....

“The breaking news report that you all probably received is incorrect,” Carney said at the beginning of his briefing. He added: “There is no deal. We are not close to a deal.” Carney added that Obama is “in discussions with all the leaders of Congress,” and that Obama is still looking for the “biggest deal possible.”
