Hannity bashes Free Republic (February 2005)

[1Old Pro]

Just now on his radio show...says we taken over by fringe people

listen to the audio

[nutmeg]

He's always had a love-hate relationship with FReepers, I guess. His comments went over the line this time, though. I think he's out to promote his own forum at hannity.com. I'm not giving up on him yet, but this was really disappointing to hear... :-(

Geez, some of his good FRiends/guests on his shows are FReepers: holdonnow, Tony Snow, Ann Coulter (lurker), Michelle Malkin (I forgot her screen name), trueblackman, mhking...

[ovrtaxt]

What's his freepname?

[bonfire]

Maybe we all should make a little visit??? But good!

[nopardons]

ME? Nope,I've never even been over to his forum.TRY READING MY POSTS,INSTEAD OF GUESSING AND THEN MAKING THINGS UP ABOUT ME.I've already said,several times on this thread,that I have never seen Hannity's site.

Even LP won't let Todd be a Mod. LOL

[Wormwood]

Is he really that desparate to get people to his site and did he think attacking FR would accomplish that?

Well...idiot that he is, Hannity may believe that any publicity is good publicity.

After all, we are talking about him.

That said, screw him. We don't need him on our side.

[nopardons]

holdonnow

[ApesForEvolution]

Hell, that's what The Sean wants - which is why I won't. heheheheeee.

[Cold Heat]

holdonnow

[Constantine XIII]

Yeah, I stopped listening to Savage the night he decided to talk about how he walks around his house nekkid, for a whole friggin hour. At least, that's what it felt like. ><

That was about the timeframe you mention, IIRC.

[Matchett-PI]

"Todd is TBLSHOW,an anti-FREEPER and a KOOK par excellence! Evidently,he is posting to Sean's wen site forum,so Sean claiming,today,that his forum is more con trolled than FR is more than a little hypocritical;to say the least. It makes one wonder if he even looks at his own site."

omg NO!!!! That guy??? I've had plenty of run-ins with him here. You are right, he IS a KOOK of the first magnitude!!

It looks to me as if Sean has been suckered big time into making this move. The only people from here that will go over there where he is, will be the "fringe people" - the very KOOKS that Sean doesn't want over there. Hahaha This is a RIOT!!! I can't believe that Sean got suckered by that guy!

BG got himself kicked off. Don't blame Hannity. I like BG but please.. the same tired crotchety callers all the time lately. However, I agree with your assessment of his books.

I don't blame Hanraty, believe me. But Grant didn't get himself kicked off. His comment was mild. The Condi Rice "Aunt Jemima" talk show liberal was not even considered for a firing or even discipliary action. My main gripe is that Hanraty is such a painful lightweight and the fact that he replaced BG makes it all the more annoying. BTW, I agree 100%, BG show not is the Crotch Hour. No arguments there. No longer a listener.

Let's not give him any more traffic than he deserves.

Don't feed the trolls, after all.

[FixitGuy]

Sean Hannity does not know upon which side his bread is buttered.

[RaceBannon]

He has proven to be a putz, that's what.

I said it before, when he and Limbaugh stopped their mantra about the RULE OF LAW concerning the Clintons and their crimes just because GWB got the nod for the primary, I knew they were basically phonies.

Hannity is just not that smart, he is a wanna-be Limbaugh Clone, he aint funny, and he would be NOWHERE if they changed his time slot!

[fatima]

Nice to see you back nopardons:)

[ovrtaxt]

thx. You never know who you might be debating...

[macbee]

Every FReeper I've run into so far at CPAC is talking about his comments today. And they are p*ssed!

Hannity well and truly lost me as a listener today. His comments today about FR being dominated by fringe elements and his promotion of his own site, along with his absurd discussion with and defense of Rangell, mean that I'll be looking elsewhere on the dial during Hannity's show from now on. I'll also be letting my local station know that I am doing so.

[Ciexyz]

Noooooooooo!!!!

I missed the comment. I caught the end portion of his show and had no indication that something was amiss. NO! NO! NO!

[BigSkyFreeper]

I will say this about Sean, he is consistent about one thing. He's absolutely stupid.

In the span of about a minute and a half, he engaged in the same thing he accused so many FReepers of doing, "turning on their own", "acting childish", etc. It's completely laughable. Sean has an absolute weird brand of Conservatism. No Conservative I know would be buddy-buddy with the likes of Charlie Rangel, even if Charlie Rangel is like a stopped clock.
