Fox News Channel’s chief White House correspondent, Ed Henry, is “taking some time off” following publication of a magazine story alleging an affair with a Las Vegas woman, the network said Wednesday.
The magazine In Touch Weekly quotes a woman described as a hostess detailing her encounters with Henry, who is married. Henry is quoted in the magazine telling a reporter that “I don’t know anything about it” and was not commenting on Wednesday.
Besides covering the Obama White House, Henry has traveled covering Hillary Clinton’s campaign.
“We recently became aware of Ed’s personal issues and he’s taking some time off to work things out,” Fox said in a statement.

Keith says
He is suspended from his job but not disqualifed to be president. Should make you think about who is going to run the contry. But of course character means nothing today!
Rick Phillips says
Depends on who’s character you are talking about. Hillary put up with Bill’s affairs and then tried to crush the women he had affairs with. Is that who you are talking about? Trump has had divorces but not affairs. Trump 2016!!!!
lrr says
You are absolutely correct about Hillary/Bill. And also:
” GO TRUMP 2016″
Ralph says
Where do you draw the line though?
Sin in God’s sight is sin. If we offend in one area we offend all.
True we establish different categories in our societies, but again where do we draw the line? It is a difficult issue especially in leadership qualifications. It is possible to have no one ever qualified. God forgives. People do grow up, mature, etc.
I take the Donald where he is now in life & i see his family & am impressed.

Ur speling is terible………

No one ask you to police people’s quote’s. Mind your own business and leave that person alone.
Analects says
No apostrophe is needed in “quote’s.”
Amil says
Texting is ruining the English Language.
The Redhawk says
@ Keith….Sounds about RIGHT after Both of Clintons ‘ PICCADILLO” and LIES about FININCING of the Clinton Family Foundation
Fred says
You are talking about ED HENRY. Not a presidential candidate. He is a reporter. Can’t you read?
Kevin Gartrell says
Exactly Fred! Read before you comment please so you don’t continue showing off your stupidity!! Seven replies before Fred pointed you out. Thanks Fred
old1 says
So what. The country is falling apart and this is news. People get a grip. It doesn’t affect you or me.
Ralph says
Ed Henry might run next term
What about Franklin Graham?
Do we go back to high school days or before in vetting?
Earl says
I feel sad for both Ed Henry and the Las Vegas woman. Hopefully Ed Henry can work it out God’s way. Just remember the David and Bathsheba story and how God worked it out for David.
Jack Russell says
And, he worked it out for Bathsheba. Jesus is from her lineage.
Kevin Gartrell says
Good stuff you two!!
Laura says
I like Ed Henry very much….I’m 78 yrs old and I think he’s soooo cute! lol
Fox needs to leave Ed’s personal life to him and his wife…….an affaire, true or not, has absolutely nothing to do with his excellent ability to do his job…..and do his job very well! Let the Fox administrators who are not guilty of this, or something equal to this, throw the first stone.
Allan says
Suppose that Dennis Hastert or Jerry Sandusky might make viable reporters or Presidential candidates as well if we just disregard their personal lives.
Gungadin says
Laura: I agree with you 100%. Henry is an excellent reporter and his personal business is just that HIS PERSONAL business.
We have gone from being way overboard in political correctness to a reporter whose doing his job, running into “trouble” with his management for just being a human being with some faults. Quite Sad.
Joanne says
I was shocked to hear of Ed Henry’s dalliance. I certainly didn’t need a vision of his bathing in Mr. Bubbles. Sickening that some men have to cheat on their wives.
Fritz S. says
Joanne:
Before you go off the deep end, you should perhaps ask yourself: “Who do these men cheat with?” A follow-up question is: “Why do the “whos” do it?”
John Deacy says
So FOX White House News Caster Ed Henry had an affair…….so what. Media please give us news worthy stories not this no nothing story! stop filling in empty news space with unimportant information.
Fred says
Good at his job – so Hillary creates an “alleging an affair with a Las Vegas woman” to remove Ed from reporting on her?.
Tommy Kelly says
Fred, you are definitely in need of a thorough mechanical checkup, if not a complete overhaul.
Tom Wagner says
This is a non story…Move along, nothing to see here.
chucktilley says
That’s what happens to Liberal Democrats news networks Ed Henry . Democrats are dogs , I hope his wife dumps his butt . She what happens when he hangs out with Bill Clinton .
drbhelthi says
If all news agencies were to cancel the contracts of all staff members who have violated their marriage vows, would any of the news agencies retain enough qualified staff to be able to function?
While I maintain that marriage vows are permament until a divorce is final, employees are hired on the basis of their professional qualifications. Asking potential employees if they have engaged in extramarital affairs would be as ineffective as waterboarding prisoners on Gitmo.
ROY C. CARRUTH says
WELL, WELL HAVE YOU EVER STOPPED TO REALLY THINK, HILLARY COULD NOT MAKE A GOOD PRESIDENT BECAUSE THE WHITE HOUSE IS AWFUL BIG AND SHE WOULD HAVE TO SPEND MOST OF HER TIME CHECKING OUT THE CLOSETS TRYING TO FIND OLE’ SLICK BILL.
Chuck Burket says
When you see Water`s World and his interviews with the answers they give you can see why America is going to hell. These are also the same people that are voting for that no class-pompous ass Trump. You kids better wise up and get educated because YOU are the ones that are going to pay the bills. When I was a kid taxes were 1.5 percent, now they are 42% and when you are fifty they will be 65%. GOOD LUCK GUYS.
RGB says
Who cares! But I must admit if he’s covering the Clinton campaign, he has some of the best teachers (esp. Bill) showing him “how to do it”. Bill Clinton was the worst of the worst, and lets not forget Old Crooked Hillary! I seem to remember some old beat-up house trailers at White Water, AR where she worked??? Let’s not forget Webb Hubble, Vince Foster, etc. With all of this and the FBI investigation Mr. DONALD TRUMP will be our next Commander and Chief – – – “We The People” (voters) want to Make America Great Again and get rid of the “sewer rats” in DC –
Barbara Ryan says
In Touch Weekly has printed many, many false stories, including the one about William and Kate expecting twins, after she gave birth to Charlotte. I used to get the magazine weekly and found so many untrue stories. How they get away with it is amazing to me and I canceled my subscription. Check Snopes.com or another site that has done the research.
