White House Press correspondents chuckled after FOX News correspondent Ed Henry requested more on camera interviews with his outlet, then immediately followed by asking a question about the tough issue of the terrorist attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi.

""I want to thank you for mentioning Brian Williams and all the people who interviewed the president," Henry said. "Fox would like to be added to that list in the second term." This drew a slight laugh, but then he followed up, "On Benghazi..." This drew a chuckle from the press corps.

Carney addressed the reporters reaction, reminding Henry that the President had in fact done interviews with Fox News in the past.
