Hillary spurns Fox News: Fox’s Ed Henry Visibly Upset by Inability to Ask Hillary a Question

The saga of Hillary Clinton versus Ed Henry continued Monday afternoon when the Fox News reporter lined up for questions following a campaign event and was completely left out.

According to the Washington Examiner, Clinton answered questions from the Washington Post, MSNBC and others not including Fox. When the event ended, Henry could be seen trying to get a question out of the Democratic presidential candidate, becoming visibly upset as she his whisked away and surrounded by staffers and supporters.

Henry and the candidate had an infamous run-in earlier this year, during an Iowa stop in which Clinton said she will put answering questions on her list of “for due consideration.”

no one should answer questions from Fox News. They have no standing for their "righteous" indignation.

Note it's not to report the news, it's "make the news" as he stated in this old article from his CNN days, it's a doozy and not in a good way:

"It was a surprise line of inquiry. The president made news by saying the policy was under review -- and a few weeks later he overturned it.

I was heading into this event with the same strategy: make news on something unexpected (I won't tell you which topics I was working on cause it would ruin the surprise for a future presser or interview with the president)."

Complete pissant.

HRC has better things to do with her time than to waste it on the RNC propaganda machine.

Or will they completely ignore Fox's temper tantrum and do their jobs as best they can without worrying about Fox?

Why is Fox News acting surprised? They've had it in for Hillary for years. When she ran for the Senate from New York, Fox News literally said that she couldn't win because "everybody hates her." No, just Fox News hates her so why should she give them so much as the time of day?

She will likely do entertainment when she is done with the pressing urgency that is the primaries. Saturday night live, Fallon etc...all will come later. Fox will have to see if and when their importance bubble to the top of Hillarys list.
