White House's Hubbard: Departure Report Premature

Filed at 9:37 a.m. ET

PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - White House economic adviser Glenn Hubbard said on Thursday a newspaper report that he was planning to leave the administration was premature, but that he did not plan on being a "lifer" in the White House.

"It's too soon to write my obituary. It's a bit premature. They didn't talk to me," Hubbard told reporters, referring to a Wall Street Journal newspaper article saying he planned to leave his post as chairman of the White House Council of Economic Advisers and return to academia.

Hubbard was speaking to reporters after addressing the Greater Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce.

Asked if he was planning to leave the administration by this spring, Hubbard said: "At some point I will but I don't want to comment on the specific times. But obviously at some point -- I'm not a lifer."
