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

[RushCrush]

I vote for Walter Williams as successor, when (god forbid) Rush leaves us.

[nopardons]

I like Mark Levin's show the best!

"Hannity was so busy today patting his buddy, communist Charlie Rangel, on the back that he was unaware he was slamming America's Website!"

I really think this is a strategy of Sean's...He has HIS way of "coming along side" the commie left, and whammo, sometimes? maybe? who knows, they will open up, defenses down...and they will say something they where not suppose to say! Or you will hear something in a tone or something. He does it good I think and he doesn't sell his soul to the dark side doing it, it ain't butt kissin, I don't think.

My husband complained of this same thing yesterday. He was on a long drive and said Sean has incessantly hyped this interview with Elders and then it had nothing to do with her "attacking" the Hildebeast.

He felt like I do when I occasionally pick up the Enquirer in the grocery store line and the headline that caught my eye has nothing to do with the actual story.

In fairness to Sean, sometimes guests change their stories on air and sometimes producers (who do the pre-show interview) get it wrong and lead the interviewer to believe the guest is going to say something other than what they say.

But this was really out there. Bad, Sean.

Agree. Listened to Hannity from day 1, NY'er that I be. Slowly evolved into a ME persona. Rush and the Great One do indeed "rip" many of their subjects from these pages. I get my news right here, everyday as well. Made it my home page.
I was listening last Friday when the Great One was on with SH live from a book signing for MIB. Sean should have been wearing green (if he wasn't) because that was certainly the color he was showing in regards to the attention ML was getting. Also, election day he was losing it based on the exit polls. Had all kinds of people calling me asking me did I hear Sean. Bad news yadda yadda. I knew the data was bogus from the FReepers and calmed them down. Sean, Sean tsk tsk.

But... three hours a day is all we ask.

[geege]

Now I wish we can get Glenn Beck up here in NJ....I drive home from work everyday listening to Hannity and end up changing the station because he gets on my nerves.....I flipped out when he was interviewing that "who-were" Amber Frey....is this what people want to listen to after 8 hours in an office??????? He's wacked.

[Tempest]

Actually he's right. There have been a lot of frothy attitudes around here lately. Somedays I think I'm cruising the rights version of DU.

That's how bad it's been lately.

Here in the SF Bay Area the Sean Hannity radio program is 17th in this market. Before you conclude that this is because this is a socialist enclave note that Michael Savage is #1.

I luv it.

To be fair, we should note that in the SF Bay Area, Hannity is on a three-hour delay while we get Dr. Laura in his time slot. A taped topical show, especially with breaking news possibilities, and lack of audience participation since we don't hear the live feed doesn't help ratings. Might as well be listening to Michael Reagan at 4am (OK, maybe not that extreme, but you get my jist). But I'm not that I'm under any illusion that he'd be #1 if he was live.

Me personally, I rarely listen to him at the timeslot because I get my fill from the morning shows and I'm more into the music mode at that time, although I'll flip around the dial if I'm driving.

Ann can be rude to as many libs for all I care. Sean just lost a huge opportunity, guess he's happier with libs.

"Whatever happened to Connie Hair? Does she not like us now?"

She left under bad terms after losing a power struggle with some folks. I usedta see her around DeeCee FReeps and then at LibertyPost.org...I still like her, but she no longer speaks highly of this Forum.

Sorta sour grapes, imho...MUD

[OldFriend]

It's ALWAYS about Hannity and he seems uncomfortable with people who put their lives on the line rather than their mouths.

[Tarpaulin]

Labrax2, zotted.

Bye!

I like Mark Levin's show the best!

Suck up :0)

BTW .. his new book is pretty good too

[nopardons]

Yes,actually it is my business. It's also Jim's business! You outed yourself and now are afraid to say who you were and why you were banned.Back then,you had to be VERY bad to get banned;ergo,you must have been one of the horrors here. ;^)

[Fiddlstix]

Whatever happened to Connie Hair? Does she not like us now?

I'd like to know too. She posted some good stuff and she helped a lot on the Freepathons.

[Cold Heat]

He was either using us to build a base for his forum, or someone close to him got bumped recently.

he has really never said anything positive about this forum however.

He has received criticism before and also has a pretty thin skin when that happens.

I think he will discover he has made a mistake.
