Friday at the White House press briefing, press secretary Josh Earnest started by saying “Good afternoon everybody. TGIF, it’s been a long week, but a good one,” to which a reporter shot back, “So no briefing?”

The White House press corps erupted into laughter and groans as reporters could be heard saying  “busted” and “zing” causing Earnest to quip “the feeling is mutual.”
