Yes
But apparently it was enough to make Hannity mad enough to kick him off the show, I heard
Dershowitz was on MSNBC the next day--and he hasn't been on there for probably a year or more from my recollection

The Sean Hannity thing is a nothing-burger, designed to embarrass and intimidate anyone in the Trump sphere.

That said, I wish we could all agree that anyone having a spouse, sibling, child, parent, business partner, lawyer, etc. working directly for a political party or formerly a direct employee of a political party may not be part of the media establishment. It would basically eliminate Fox, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS, WaPo, NYT, Time Magazine and others.

All the MSM outlets are joined at the hip with one political party/candidate or another. There is no such thing as independent media, if it's part of the mainstream. The only trustworthy media is the new media & even that needs to be sifted through very carefully.

How could the revelation that Sean Hannity was working with Cohen have been "Designed to embarrass and intimidate anyone in Trump's sphere" if no one but Hannity and Cohen (and perhaps Trump) knew of the attorney-client relationship between Hannity and Cohen until Monday?

Think before you post, people.

That is not what diGenova or Toensing did--but of course he was their client at the time (and we didn't know that then either)...
But Dershowitz did slap his chubby cheeks a little Monday night
So guess that is the new litmus test for "journalistic honesty" on Fox--
Calling out Hannity for not revealing his bias???
I was surprised at him and Dershowitz.

the claim that hannity is a client of cohen's and that fact may be "embarrassing" came from cohen and his attorney. nobody else.

Now that they are going after Hannity despite no evidence of Hannity doing any wrongdoing, if people don't dissolve this KGB-hit squad run by J Edgar Mueller, the population of America should see that it is dissolved by force, lest it grow to the point where it hauls off anyone that the Deep State doesn't agree with.

Mongoose: Maybe Hannity should not mingle with lawyers who does shady deals, and tries to hide it from his employer and his audience.

That he got caught up into a criminal case against (a most likely crooked lawyer) is his fault.
