Out-of-Control Hannity Thumbs His Nose at Fox News Bosses
A blaring example of that is Hannity’s treatment of claims from guests whose dubious “reporting” would never pass muster on Fox’s hard news shows. The most commonly cited example of this is Trump-boosting Fox News contributor
Sara Carter, whose news credibility is so questionable that, as Mediaite
reported in March, Fox News executives allegedly told Hannity to stop calling her an “investigative reporter” on his show.
“Fox News executives have asked Hannity to stop using this title on the grounds that Carter’s reporting is not vetted, and passes none of the network’s editorial guidelines,” the media news site reported. And even without any such dictate, Hannity’s hyping of “reporters” who don’t meet Fox’s news standards would be considered troublesome at any mainstream outlet.
