What exactly did Sean Hannity do with Cohen? Go back to your Mainstream media and find out what you're supposed to say here.

Since when did consulting with a lawyer become grounds cor becoming "toxic waste"?

Here, let me do your work for you...

Since when does any citizen have to disclose who his lawyer is to any media or to the public...for no reason.

Since nobody else on TV and/or politics has disclosed who they are affiliated with or related to, than why should Hannity be held to a higher standard.

Not one liberal on this thread is asking for Obama or Clintons and their disclosures and what has come out about the FBI top, Fusion dossier paid by DNC and Clinton.

Interesting. Because these people, myself included on occasion listen or watch Hannity and you disapprove , that makes us racists and bigots. Seems to me, the ones that are always throwing those terms around the most are the ones that fit that description.

No one said he HAD to. We're saying he should have. And there most certainly was a reason. As we now see from the huge kerfuffle that has arisen due to his lack of saying so. It's hilarious seeing you guys try to rationalize this.

Imagine the **** storm that would've ensued at Fox if the shoe was on the other foot and Rachel Maddow was found to have personal ties to one of Hillary Clinton's lawyers who was implicated in one of her scandals

First -- there is no Clinton or Obama in this thread...there just isn't. Start one if you want to discuss it.

If you think Hannity shouldn't be fired then you don't.

I don't think he should be fired...but I want to know the story behind the contradicting statements from Cohen and Hannity.

When you are "the media" you have to disclose these things. It worked the same way in the print days, before cable news and hacks like Hannity being conflated with journalists.

That only applies if you give Hannity the position of being in hard news or a real journalist. He's more like Colbert without the humor.


If you demand he has integrity, you are implying what he does has integrity.
