Shocker.
Hannity hired a lawyer who specializes in making women problems go away and 12 hours in seems to still be running scared. Waiting to see how this ends is the best part.
How Sean Hannity’s Relationship With Michael Cohen Reveals Fox News’ Vulnerability
http://time.com/5242631/sean-hannity-michael-cohen-fox-news/
Near the start of his Monday evening broadcast, Fox News opinion host Sean Hannity asked why “fake news CNN, conspiracy-TV MSNBC today” weren’t covering the U.S. strike on Syria that had taken place three nights prior. “Why isn’t it front-page news everywhere?” he asked.
As Hannity well knew, the days-old military action had been pre-empted—even, briefly, on Fox News—by scandal around the host himself. Sean Hannity had been named in federal court as a secret client of President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Michael Cohen. This was a story that, like so many of recent vintage, combined soap-opera shock with legitimate news-value. It also raises a number of questions, chief among them Fox News’s ability to fairly cover an embattled lawyer with a previously undisclosed connection to one of their hosts.
Sean Hannity used his broadcast to complain about the media’s obsession with him. His comments were likely unwise—existing as statements pertaining, if tangentially, to an ongoing investigation—and were certainly as hypocritical as spectators have come to expect. Hannity has made a career of hounding public figures, some of whom are now private citizens; Hillary Clinton and James Comey are unlikely to hold office ever again. So Hannity promoting the idea that a public person should be able to keep an essential fact private is surprising, especially for someone whose Javert-like pursuit of Hillary Clinton continued through Monday’s broadcast. Sean Hannity is arguing for his right to keep his relationship with Cohen private even as he’s relentlessly pushing himself forward as an expert voice on Cohen, among other topics. It’s hard not to wonder how much this provocateur really minds being the center of attention—even as it represents a threat to him, and indicates the precarious position his network occupies in this unchartered era.
The Hannity story was revealed on Fox News during anchor Shepard Smith’s daytime broadcast by correspondent Laura Ingle, who said Hannity’s name then half-sighed, half-laughed, “So moving on to the rest of what’s happening today…” The institutional discomfort was understandable; Smith called Hannity’s being named in court “for us, the elephant in the room.” Smith has been navigating complications caused by Fox News’s freewheeling opinion hosts for some time: He told Time in an interview earlier this year that his colleagues at Fox News’s opinion desk “don’t really have rules… They can say whatever they want,” earning a harsh critique from Hannity in return. For Fox News, a network who before President Donald Trump’s election had neatly proscribed boundaries within which to operate, making waves is nothing new. But genuinely making the news is an uncomfortable thing indeed.
During his broadcast, Hannity briefly mentioned his connection to Michael Cohen a few times, reveling in giving “a special shout-out” to members of the media and liberals watching to see what he’d say. He insisted on keeping viewers in suspense as he relitigated older stories. Guest Alan Dershowitz, brought on to discuss a day-old interview of James Comey on ABC, had other ideas. “First of all, Sean,” he said after being asked about Comey, “I do want to say that I really think that you should have disclosed your relationship with Cohen when you talked about him on this show.”
It was a rare moment of real, unplanned dissent on a show that generally stages fights, and one that Hannity squashed with maximum efficacy and minimal graciousness. “I have the right to privacy, I do,” he said, talking over Dershowitz, a regular Fox News guest who was in the process of conceding Hannity was in “a complex situation.” Then they moved on to James Comey. Hannity’s delaying his take on Cohen’s day in court until show’s end seemed to provide a tour of fixations and distractions—stories days or, in Clinton’s case, years old, all ones that rile up the blood of a true believer but leave someone interested in Hannity’s own fate bored, frustrated, or perhaps with a better understanding of how he thinks the rules apply.
Hannity finally got to his own story after he’d plumbed Comey—and his perceived unfair treatment of Trump as opposed to the villainous Clinton—for as long as he could. “Let me set the record straight,” Hannity said. “Here’s the truth.” Cohen never, he said, represented Hannity, and the host never paid the lawyer, seeking instead “occasional, brief conversations… about legal questions I had,” mainly focused on real estate.
Well read the teeth gnashing in peanut gallery over this latest celebrity scandal over at Fox News. Joe's blaming Hillary, bear bear's blaming me- Ricky's reminding us that accountability isn't a Republican value. You guys are really worked up! But please- before you start hitting me with personal attacks remember I'm only the lowly messenger, pointing out that the swamp creatures are getting out of control.
Anyway, obviously Hannity is entitled to keep his legal issues to himself. Although now that the genie is out of the bottle, kinda makes you wonder how Fox and Rupert feel about this?

Yep, I can't understand what the big deal is, he is just a talk show host.No one cares except for folks like you...says something eh?

Your welcome to put me on ignore if you can't stomach it. All I know is my spiddy senses are tingling that there will be new developments regarding the Fox News Love Child Scandal.
I get that Hannity's about three notches above Jesus to the Evangelical nutter set, so of course ya'll don't want to hear it. But my advise is stay tuned. Something doesn't add up here and I'll eat crow if there's not more to come.
Why didn't you put up a better candidate?The Country is drowning in chaos, Russia, Syria, potentially fake gas attacks justifying our war machine, Cohen, Mueller, it's crazy right now.

The better question is who will be the best candidate in 2020...
So far I hear Crazy Joe or perhaps that peach named Harris. Maybe Bernie will still have a heartbeat by then or perhaps that weasel Garcetti. Sprinkle that fan favorite Lizzy Warren in there and you have an all-star cast of pure gem dems.
Looks like I will need to bring a clothespin again to cast my vote.
It iz hard to run in slippas.None of those names excite me. I think Warren is the toughest on Wall Street, something no other politicians seem to be, but she would be considered too liberal by most voters. Bernie, like you said, is getting really old and his tax plan still scares me. No on Joe. Gabbard has potential but has not expressed any interest in running so far.
