Fox News’ Ed Henry returns White House fire on gender gap; others join the fun

Fox News senior White House correspondent Ed Henry exercised one of the perks of his position Tuesday — tweaking the hypocritical nose of a sanctimonious Obama administration staff member.

He described the Twitter exchange he had with White House Communications Director Jennifer Palmieri to Fox News anchor Shepard Smith on “Shepard Smith Reporting,” in the above video, but the real fun is reading the tweets, and the Twitchy team was only too happy to record them all.

Immediately following a rancorous press briefing in which White House press secretary Jay Carney trotted out some misleading statistics on the gender pay-gap, Palmieri fired off this tweet:

Some days it pays to just keep your mouth shut. Tuesday was one of them for a certain White House communications director.
