Major Garrett a “Conscientious Objector” in FNC vs. White House

The AP’s David Bauder has a behind the scenes look at Major Garrett‘s interview with Pres. Obama Wednesday morning in China.

Garrett, Fox’s senior White House correspondent, described the backstage atmosphere as “very calm, very rational, very relaxed.

“Look, I wasn’t going to litigate whatever it was that was going on between Fox and the White House,” Garrett said. “Whether it was a war or not, I was always a conscientious objector in the conflict.”

White House spokesman Joshua Earnest tells Bauder the administration had no “post-game comment” about Obama’s interview with Garrett — the first time in nearly four months that Fox News has been granted an interview with the president.
