So says Hannity. If that's all it was, why did he want Cohen's lawyer to keep his name a secret?

And why ask real estate advice from a lawyer who, by all indications, has no expertise in that area?

That said, Fox News is not a real news organization, so there are no ethical standards they need to maintain. Hannity not disclosing a personal relationship with a player in his many, many on air tirades proves it definitively. Only their loyal and mindless still viewers think Fox is real.

Fox will not jettison their cash cow, ethics be damned. If anyone still questioned the credibility of Fox, this puts the questions to rest.

That's a broad brush you're painting with there....

What you're saying makes way too much sense. Stop confusing these ardent Trumplings who are folding themselves into origami boats to defend the POTUS.

Cohen claimed Hannity was a "client," Hannity says he just asked Cohen a few real estate questions. Which is it?

I enjoy coming here after things like this pop up and see the flailing arms and craziness that ensues. This story will disappear in two days and be nothing because it is nothing. There is enough mud flung at the walls to build an adobe home at this point.

That was done on purpose. Figured I'd just talk in absolutes the way many Trump supporters on here do.

Unless you quote them as well and inform them that they're painting with a broad brush?

That's only if Cohen is or he is shown to be lying about their relationship.
I've used a real estate lawyer but not disclosed that fact to my employer....is that a problem?

Do you really go thru life, day to day with that much angst in you ? Wow, nothing but hate. Although I do agree with you on the evangelical thing. Sorry for those that are religious, but no matter what faith one has chosen, they are all filled with hypocrisy.

Depends on your line of work and to what extent you decide to involve your ‘lawyer’ with your work.

In my line of work I have to be concerned with ethics, conflicts of interest and other such details. If I were a janitor? Not so much.

Hannity did nothing wrong. He's an admitted Conservative talk show host, and Conservative commentator.

It's just another person that the left is trying to discredit, for some reason they must be threatened by him.

Is your "real estate" lawyer under investigation by the FBI, and are you a TV news personality that has been desperately slagging off said investigation on national TV for weeks, without revealing your personal relationship with said lawyer?

If not, you should be fine.
