I heard him do was put out some facts about Fitzgerald's connections and past acts."""YEs, it was all negative -- it wasn't a balanced review of the guy's career, but a bunch of stuff that reflected negatively: 1) he's friends with the assistant AG who gave him this gig; 2) he supported the prosecutor who prosecuted Martha whazzername on a secondary charge; 3) he dropped a case against a Dem Senator (Harkin). Now, if Hannity had gone on to talk about the highlights of Fitz's career, then I'd think he was merely reporting "we report you decide," but this was a one-sided review, clearly (to my ears) to make listeners skeptical about the guy, if not worse.

This is not the Fox News Channel and that is not what Hannity's program purports to be. He is on the Republican side and there is nothing wrong with him pointing out facts that may bear on Fitzgerald's action in this matter. He did not resort to name calling or sliming the man.

Sean Hannity is a lightweight and nobody pays any attention to what he says, and neither should you.

That was a very lovely story and you told it so well, with such enthusiasm. Now STFU

I have one problem with Fitzgerald. Someone, months ago, started leaking to leftist reporter Murray Waas. People who are familiar with this case think the information is so good it is coming from the Prosecutor's Office.

Now the investigation is leaking like crazy and leaking to all left outlets. Someone on his staff has an agenda and someone on his staff is very happy.
