Hannity does that all the time; he must think it’s entertaining to have people shouting.

It ain’t.

A week or so ago an article on this forum interrupted in a host of replies of terminally frustrated conservatives at the public persona of Sean Hannity. The criticisms generally focused on his inability to shut up and let his guest speak.

Immediately after that I closely observed Hannity and felt that he had moderated his intemperance but perhaps he is losing his grip again. If he does not learn to stop yelling into the microphone, to stop repeating himself, to stop interrupting, to stop asking convoluted questions which are longer than the time allotted to the guests to answer, his ratings will further deteriorate.

Hannity, nevertheless, is entitled to immense credit for his exposure of the entire Russia hoax but he has run out of an issue that his ensemble team can run with and that leaves Hannity barking into the microphone.

Hannity also deserves credit for his bootstrap career coming up to the pinnacle of cable television. His early days in the medium were times when every cable channel traded on controversy and talking over one another. His talk radio roots in which every talk Jock is obsessively concerned with his own public image of perfection probably also contributes to Hannity's inability to turn the microphone over to anybody-except perhaps Mark Levin.

If he is eclipsed by Tucker Carlson, that is a good thing. If he is eclipsed by competitors on MSNBC, well that is another story.
