President Obama announced that White House Press Secretary Jay Carney would resign in mid-June, making a surprise announcement at the White House press briefing on Friday.
Carney thanked Obama for allowing him the chance to serve at the White House.
Obama said that Deputy Press Secretary Josh Earnest would take Carney’s place at the White House.
“My request is be nice to Jay on his farewell tour, and be nice to Josh during his initiation, which I’m sure will last two days, or perhaps two questions,” Obama said to reporters.
