Sean Hannity threatens legal action after Fox News guest claims he invited her back to his hotel and then cut her from his show after she rejected his advances

Debbie Schlussel said the prime time host invited her back to his hotel room and when she rejected his advances, she wasn't invited to perform on his show

In a tweet, she also said Hannity was angry when she 'briefly became redhead'

Hannity slammed the allegations and said Schluessel was 'attention-seeking' before threatening legal action against

Hours later, Schlussel said she never accused Hannity of sexual harassment and expressed her disbelief that her comments were viewed in that manner

In 2010, Schlussel accused Hannity of demanding $200k in flights and hotels when attending events for his charity, which was revealed to be completely false Fox News host Sean Hannity has been forced to deny he sexually harassed a former guest on his popular cable news program.

Debbie Schlussel said on Friday that the married anchor invited her back to his hotel in Detroit after the pair met up at a book signing, and that after she turned down the father-of-two's advances she was not invited back on his show.

Schlussel also said Hannity, whose show draws an average of more than two million viewers a night, got angry when she turned 'redhead' and claims the veteran broadcaster asked her 'creepy' questions about her pants size.

In an interview with Tulsa, Oklahoma-based radio host Pat Campbell, she said: 'This kind of stuff is all over the place at Fox News and anything that has to do with Sean Hannity.'

Then on Monday, Schlussel gave an interview expressing her disbelief over the coverage of the story, saying that she never accused Hannity of sexual harassment.

Sean Hannity is training as a martial artist. All martial artists are unique individuals. Some are better than others in every area of their lives. But if they are training seriously they all have one thing in common:

They move very quickly, naturally, and subconciously to squash any perceived threat.

Sean did that here and won ... quickly ...

It sounds like Hannity has a witness and she doesn’t. In another article, I read that she said it was Hannity and his male producer (I assume the TV producer) and that he never invited her to his room, but to the hotel. Many hotels have big lobbies and restaurants, ie; public places.

So, she now admitted that he had a witness with him and that he wasn’t propositioning her.

He needs to fight and fight hard. Stop this insanity.

So, the attack on Fox personalities continues.

Debbie Schlussel has been a flighty dignbat for years. Now we know she’s a democrat shill.

And the Left slammed Vice President Pence for never meeting or dining with women alone. THIS IS WHY.

Looks like Debby didn’t do Hannity.

Let's see now.
Black lives matter.
The Earth is too hot.
The police are bullies.
Sexual harassment is rampant.
Students battered by micro aggressions.
What's next?

I think the answer is throw ALL of these idiot women the hell off of television. They have completely taken over the industry, and the only “males” you see on news programs are token idiots, which is appropriate because they don’t want them to be smarter then the idiot hosts. I don’t even watch TeleVAGIN anymore because I can’t stand the idiocy or the hypocrisy!

She’s one of many on WND who pulls lies on her readers.

I was attracted to her ramblings for years (as well as WND in general) before realizing some things stated were just wrong. Lies.

Don’t need to argue with liberals using lies.

So Debbie is already tucking tail (impossible for her, I know) & running away from what she said .... she’s saying she can’t believe it’s being reported the way it is. She KNEW what she was doing & on the heels of what happened to BORe, what the consequences might be since the Leftist Murdochs are in charge. Sean should sue her and make her very, very sorry for what she said and let her be an example of what will happen to anyone else who wants to try this sort of thing with Sean.

When I saw the headline, my first reaction was "here we go again". Then I saw that the accusations came from that nutjob Debbie Schussel. Nothing she says can be believed. I didn't even know she was still around. If Sean was going to jeopardize his career and marriage over a woman, it wouldn't be that skank.

Hannity has leftist idiots on his show all the time, and frankly, this is when I turn him off. He will never learn. I shut them off b/c leftist kooks have no standards, and lie all the time. What is the point of listening to liars?

She’s done the damage; just sue her and stop threatening action. The damage is done.


Exactly.

Get tough or be roadkill.

Those are the options available.

Hannity himself is being besmirched ... to quote one of his pet words.

Hannity could do a thousand times better with his dough.

************************************************************

Strongly disagree!! If he ignores this then it will happen again and again as others accuse him of whatever. They KNOW he will do nothing but deny it and they can then continue to insist it is true and bring in others to “verify” what allegedly happened. Why not since there is NO downside?

If he sues the living sh*t out of the creeps they will will think long and hard about doing it again without unassailable, ironclad proof.

Hannity has resources and my guess is Schlossel is minor league in this area and would not be willing to spend several hundred thousand dollars on a case she cannot win.

O’Reilly should have sued as well and should still sue FNC for firing him and in so doing depriving him of the ability to make a living.

Is she an expert or specialist is any field? Why would she be a guest on any program. From what I learn of her from this thread, and a couple others, I would tune her out, as I now do for several others, as they have nothing but meaningless words to offer.

"Who is Debbie Schlussel?

Sue her, Sean! Let her pay a lawyer to make accusations."

She IS an attorney.
