Hannity Moderates Heated Clash Between Michelle Malkin And Sally Kohn
Mediaite ^ | 6//8/12 | Noah Rothman

Posted on 06/07/2012 9:44:37 PM PDT by Nachum

Sean Hannity hosted a discussion on his radio program on Thursday between Sally Kohn, a liberal columnist, and conservative pundit Michelle Malkin. A fight over a column by Kohn that took Malkin to task for “hypocrisy” quickly escalated into a series of personal attacks between the two pundits.

Kohn took on Malkin’s assertion that Mitt Romney’s campaign was being too nice in his campaign against President Barack Obama. She said that there was a measure of hypocrisy in her suggestion that Romney get more aggressive while at the same time admonishing the left for exhibiting a lack of civility.

“I think we can disagree without being disagreeable,” said Kohn. No sooner did she make this assertion than the conversation descended into a name calling and screaming between the two pundits.

“I think that Sally has made quite a nice name and career for herself casting herself as the voice of reasonableness and mistaking her own smugness as civility,” responded Malkin. “I really don’t need lectures from her or anybody else about having to get along with liberals and progressives.”

Hannity has a lot of critics here on FR and I know he’s not as “intellectual” as some of the others you mentioned, but he’s a strong, hard-working, straight-talking patriotic conservative American who is honest and plain-spoken and mostly always on the right side.

And one more thing about Hannity. He's very loyal to other conservatives. I remember when some punk-a$$ pundit tried to get him to criticize Rush and Hannity read him the riot act.

Hannity is a good guy and we're lucky to have him on our side.

Michelle was brutal and cutting in taking apart Sally Cohn. I think I missed part two with the yelling and name calling. Dang!

Fox News actually has this Kohn she-male as a contributer?

Fox has jumped the shark.

I enjoy listening to the pudnuts that actually add intellectual content to the debate. Rush obviously, Michelle, Boortz, Levin, Coulter, Dana Loesch. I often don't agree with them on things, but I enjoy the enrichment of the discussion and challenging my own opinions. I am really turned off by guys like Hannity that just increase the volume in the echo chamber.

--- Sean is a homer. He always roots for the home team. The conservative side
--- Sean is at his best in the run up to elections. Right now he has the "Stop Obama Express" with a daily countdown to election day

I agree. I also think he’s been doing some studying - he’s improved quite a bit with his depth of knowledge.

Yup...as someone else posted, she’s on Meg Kelly’s show a lot.
The first time I saw her, I thought of Maddcow, looked her up on Google and all presumptions abt her libness, lesbo-ness and “partnership” we’re confirmed.
Jeez, Laz, these days, it’s so hard to figure out if it is “hit able” or not...
Cripes!

I totally agree. I heard this live yesterday, and Michelle sliced and diced Cohn with surgical precision, no name-calling or yelling needed. Michelle is one of our brightest pundits.

In the background you can hear Kohn giggling, but by the end Kohn was reduced to a stuttering, “um er um y’know”-gibbering rhesus monkey at several times.

Sally Kohn comes of as blithe and breezy (on radio) as she spins her lies. This greatly irritated Michelle Malkin who is in a real marriage with children while Sally has a lez “partner” and a child. My take is is Sally being just another gay Obama supporter got her angry. With all the recent news stories of gays and Hollywood raising millions for him.

The gay dominated fashion industry felt left out so now they are holding Bammy Boy fundraisers. Rush was talking about this today

Good grief - Geraldo said that - to a colleague, of sorts?? Outrageous.
She would have had to said something REAlly bad, for anyone to talk to her like that - or is he just a super putz?
He should NEVer have been allowed to get away with that.
You can’t just use ‘whore’ glibly.

I have seen her on Hannity, but she doesn’t seem quite the same to me - something’s ‘gone out.’
