On Nov. 30, 2020, Sean Hannity hosted Sidney Powell on his prime-time Fox News program. As she had in many other interviews around that time — on Fox and elsewhere in right-wing media — Ms. Powell, a former federal prosecutor, spun wild conspiracy theories about what she said was “corruption all across the country, in countless districts,” in a plot to steal re-election from the president, Donald J. Trump.
At the center of this imagined plot were machines from Dominion Voting Systems, which Ms. Powell claimed ran an algorithm that switched votes for Mr. Trump to votes for Joseph R. Biden Jr. Dominion machines, she insisted, were being used “to trash large batches of votes.”
Mr. Hannity interrupted her with a gentle question that had been circulating among election deniers, despite a lack of supporting proof: Why were Democrats silencing whistle-blowers who could prove this fraud?
Did Mr. Hannity believe any of this?
“I did not believe it for one second.”
That was the answer Mr. Hannity gave, under oath, in a deposition in Dominion’s $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News, according to information disclosed in a court hearing on Wednesday. The hearing was called to address several issues that need to be resolved before the case heads for a jury trial, which the judge has scheduled to begin in April....
And in some cases, other high-profile hosts and senior executives echoed Mr. Hannity’s doubts about what Mr. Trump and his allies like Ms. Powell were saying, according to the Dominion lawyer, Stephen Shackelford.
This included Meade Cooper, who oversees prime-time programming for Fox News, and the prime-time star Tucker Carlson, Mr. Shackelford said.

Watch it, he knows Krav Maga.
Except that would take downloading election spreadsheets and perform some basic statistics. FOX was too busy for that.
He’s no Rush Limbaugh!
Vanity and his “many pieces of Uncle Sugar flair”.
What’s his next addition to his lapels be? The IRS? DHS?
And is monotone as hell. As a musician...his voice drives me nuts!
Controlled opposition.
Then Trump takes his advice and endorses Oz.OH GEEZ! Give it a rest already.
OH BTW.
Trump accomplished more in one 4yr term than any other President in your lifetime.
Of course you think Feterman beat him fair and square because Biden endorsed Feterman.
I hope Dominion bankrupts FoxSnooze and then The Pillow Guy bankrupts Dominion. A win win all around.
And meanwhile, they told their listeners otherwise and actually interviewed those who said they had evidence of election fraud.
I despise fake conservatives just as much as I do the leftist progressives. For fake conservatives actually do more harm for true American patriots than the left does. They will find the most far out pretend conservative and give them a platform which only reinforces the stereotypes that the media tries to portray of true conservatives. Then CNN plays those clips in order to mock the true right.
Many years ago, Rush used to occasionally mention something Sean had said on his TV show. Then he stopped doing it and I never heard him say his name again.
True.
of course, none of them knew about the fibbers involvement in manipulating messaging via twitter, or the fibber supressed Hunter laptop that incriminated ‘the big buy’ - both of which would have influenced voter decisions
or the 2018 Kamala Harris/Ron Wyden/Alex Halderman/Douglas Lute testiments that machines could be hacked/manipulated that was conveniently shuffled away from public view

“Doubt” is ambiguous. It may mean to be uncertain and question or it can mean to outright disbelieve and deny. A lot of people had doubts. If they denied that’s a bigger deal.
All those stupid morons in the Trump camp who were ranting about the Dominion voting machines completely undermined the real case to be made about illegal votes, ballot stuffing, etc.
From the article, a direct quote from Hannity’s testimony:
“I did not believe it for one second.”
“Trump accomplished more in one 4yr term than any other President in your lifetime.”
Why are you so combative? You are right. I love Trump. I wanted him to run for President in 1990 when I read The Art Of The Deal. I might have been the very first FReeper in the Trump Train in 2015.
“Of course you think Feterman beat him fair and square because Biden endorsed Feterman.”
Fetterman did not beat Oz. Cheating was rampant in PA, as always. Fetterman took the position, but he didn’t win or “beat” anybody.
Oz was a terrible candidate; Trump should not have endorsed him.
100% correct
“Sean Griftnnity”
I wrote Hannity off as a sellout several years ago.
