Sean Hannity’s Super Bowl interview with Trump: ‘Let people hear from the president’
Fox News ^ | 1/28/20 | Brian Flood

Fox News Channel host Sean Hannity will interview President Trump during the Super Bowl LIV pregame show on FOX, and the highest-rated host on cable news plans to let the commander-in-chief do most of the talking.

“My job is to let people hear from the president, not from me,” Hannity said. “And it’s the Super Bowl, so it’s also about the big game!”

Hannity will sit down with President Trump at the White House and is expected to discuss a variety of topics. Much of the interview will air at approximately 3:30 p.m. ET on Super Sunday, with additional footage to be presented on Monday’s edition of “Hannity.”

The Fox News host has interviewed essentially every newsmaker and key political figure during his storied career but is well aware of the significance of the traditional Super Bowl interview with the sitting president.

“After 31 years in radio and 24 years at FNC, it’s just an honor to do this interview,” Hannity said.

“Hannity” finished 2019 as the most-watched cable news program for the third straight year, averaging 3.3 million nightly viewers to help Fox News Channel to its best primetime rating in the network’s 23-year history.

LMAO! That’s because Mark doesn’t speak. It’s more of a verbal assault.

I’m listening to Levin now. He’s calling out MSM anchors, Schumkie, and the rest. He’s a treat.

This simply has to be a misquote of some sort.

The Hannity I know is the worst interviewer on network or cable television. Not because of his views, which are spot on, but because his guests need a crowbar to get a word in edgeways. He hogs the available time for himself and he interrupts guests to provide answers to questions he asked.

Now I do, nevertheless, watch his show. But I use the 90 minute buffer on my DirecTV to fast forward through his windy repetitive speeches. His guests often have something to say that is interesting and informative - in their 45 seconds of fame.

How I detested those pre-game interviewers with Obama before the Super Bowl or NCAA Finals. It was just free advertising for the president’s party. I would rather have the president (of either party) decline and say that a game like this should bring people together and there is no place in it for raw politics. Now, if they want to show Ivanka...

That's a first.

That’s a fairly sexist point not of view. Also, bring people together? I’m sitting there watching her and chanting “hubba, hubba” with my wife listening to me going on and on. I can see us finding togetherness now. Just wait until it’s over then tune into the game.

C’mon Sean.... we know you can do it, we’ve seen you shuddup when you have Levin on.

That's the only way Mark Levine will come on the hannity show.

It didn't start that way, but it became apparent that Levine was getting pissed early on.

I can't watch the first 10-12 minutes of hannity, he repeats the same monologue, night after night.

He does get some good guests, but then talks over most of them.
