Fishbowl DC: Fox News and White House: "Truce"
A very reliable source tells FishbowlDC that Fox News SVP Michael Clemente met with White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs this morning and reached what some are calling a "truce."
Clemente then met with the FNC Washington bureau and encouraged staff to remain "fair and balanced."
Mediaite: Fox News Confirms Meeting With White House; Truce Reached?
Mediaite has confirmed a meeting between Fox News and the White House took place today, and an FNC spokesperson emphasized it was private.
Details of the meeting and terms of any agreement are still emerging, but we hear the meeting was to come to a “truce” between both sides – a point first reported by FishbowlDC.
Mediaite hears the meeting was between FNC Senior Vice President Michael Clemente and White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs in Gibbs’ office at the White House. Clemente then met with the FNC D.C. bureau.
Earlier today U.S. News & World Report wrote, “‘They’re still at it,’ says a senior Obama aide, who adds that White House officials don’t expect to fire another shot in the battle unless Fox strikes first.”
We’ve reached out to the White House for comment as well.
The entire White House vs. Fox News feud has been getting heavy coverage (here and elsewhere) as it has evolved all month. So now what? Will Glenn Beck stop saying Van Jones? Will Sean Hannity stop talking about Kevin Jennings? We’ll see.
If this supposed “truce” is anything like that last big FNC supposed “truce” – the NBC feud – it probably won’t last long before both sides are firing back again.
Obama loses War with Fox. End of transmission.
NBC lost the "feud" because they are all libtardish.
Fox News 1, Obamatards 0.

You think Glenn Beck would have to stop saying Van Jones and Hannity must stop using the name Jennings for this 'truce' to work................. ha ha ha The only reason why the WH would meet with FOX is because they lost this battle so badly. Obamatards.......... they won't change, they may cool it for a period of time, but they will continue to try to get rid of their opposition in other ways, whether it be FOX C of C, Insurance Companies, etc etc ........keep looking over your shoulder America
Exactly so.
