Fox News Channel lent support to its best-known anchor Sean Hannity, saying Thursday that their most popular host would return to its air next week following a short Memorial Day holiday vacation – an effort to tamp down speculation that a controversy currently enveloping Hannity could escalate further.
“Like the rest of the country, Sean Hannity is taking a vacation for Memorial Day weekend and will be back on Tuesday,” the 21st Century Fox-owned network said in a statement. “Those who suggest otherwise are going to look foolish.”
Hannity has become embroiled in a furor over his recent promotion of a story about the death last summer of Seth Rich, a DNC staffer who was murdered in Washington, D.C. last July in what local police have stated they believe is a botched robbery.
Hannity has in recent days promoted a yet unproven theory that Rich was killed in exchange for providing internal documents to Wikileaks, prompting statements of outrage from the Rich family.

Who cares? He does not have the courage to stand against the powers that be, yet he has no problem calling out others for the exact same thing.
His tweet yesterday was to generate talk and drama. He succeeded. That’s why it’s called show business. It’s just the big top in a different form.
The actual article calls it “a discredited story” (yeah... “discredited” according to the liberal media).
The point is, the left didn't win yet...lets hope they don't...
Fox shouldn’t have even dignified this nonsense with a comment.
Hannity could join Levin & Malkin & help build CRTV. It's time MSM is diminished to near zero once and for all.
Gee, I thought Barnum & Baily Circus shut down...............
I wish we could lead the Russian investigation by Mueller right into the subject of Seth Rich and where exactly all those emails DID come from.
Hannity is an on air performer. Streaming is not IMO in his CV. If he gets bounced from his radio gig then he and the Rigbt is in trouble.
He won't touch Comey or Hillary or anyone else, he's dirty, people have dirt on him, I'm surprised he's there as it is...
This is what they call ‘theater’ and nothing else, show dressing by the dems to try and cover up what they have done with the emails and Seth Rich and 4 others that were to testify against Hillary that are dead now...
These Companies Won't Sponsor Hannity Anymore"
Write to them!!
I watched Hannity last night thinking he would say something on the murder of Seth but alas nothing. I went back to OAN which is great! Liz Wheeler and Tipping Point is fun to watch.
They must be embaarassed at parties and such...
Check out this video regarding the Seth Rich murder and no one in DC stepping up to find out the truth. This should go viral.

like the yet unproven theory about the Clinton e-mail server
Sean Hannity is going to be the new Andrew Brietbart it looks like...
Hannity has been neutered.
He will be a good MSM lap dog now.
The lesson has not been lost on any other reporters or commentators who get hot leads of Democratic Party misdeeds.
Bury it or your career is over.
Better yet—turn in your source to the DNC—they will clean up the mess... :-(
I give them credit for doing so.
As much as FoxNews disgusts me at this time, they did this to tamp down the speculation, and ultimately support Hannity.
