Hillary Clinton responded to inquiries from Fox News’ Ed Henry Friday by telling him that he is “entitled” to only one question.
“Were you aware that [former President Bill Clinton] wanted to give paid speeches to repressive regimes like North Korea?” he asked her on Friday after Clinton spoke. “Do you have any comment on these new emails that raise questions about conflict of interests involving your aide Huma Abedin?”
“And finally, you said there’s nothing unique about the situation,” he continued. “Can you name one other cabinet secretary who had their own server?”
Clinton responded, “Well, let me answer one of your questions, because I think that’s what you are entitled to.”
Clinton addressed the reporter’s questions about Bill Clinton and North Korea, and said broadly that her husband was doing his best to help free people in North Korea. But she ignored Henry’s inquiries about her private server and possible conflicts of interest involving her longtime aide, Huma Abedin.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation is currently investigating whether Clinton sent or received classified information over her unauthorized and unsecured private email server when she worked at the State Department.
This isn’t the first time that Clinton has appeared impatient with Ed Henry’s questions. At a briefing in May, Henry interrupted a campaign event in Iowa to ask Clinton whether she had plans to speak with members of the press.
Prior to his question, it had been 40,155 minutes since the former secretary of state had answered reporters’ questions, according to the Washington Post. “Maybe when I finish talking to the people here. How’s that?” she said.
Henry asked a second time if she would take a question.
“I might,” she said with a smirk. “I’ll have to ponder it. But I will put it on my list for due consideration.”
Henry served as the president of the White House Correspondents’ Association from 2012-13.
