Angry Fox News executives ordered host Sean Hannity to abandon plans to broadcast his nightly show as part of a Tea Party rally in Cincinnati on Thursday after top executives learned that he was set to headline the event, proceeds from which would benefit the local Tea Party organization.

Maybe it was the Oxi-Dental College and the Full-Bright Scholarship.

Why would they do this when they just had Cavuto at the Atlanta TP?

Apparently it was because Hannity was charging and being part of the event

“I guess we will have to wait for Sean to tell us what is going on”

Guess I’ll never know then . I won’t listen to or watch him. His act wore thin a long time ago

If they aren’t going to be able to do their job, I agree, bring them home. Too much political shenanigans going on for them to achieve victory. Obama going after Karzai and flirting with the Talleebonnnnnn. I am not a Paulite by any stretch, but at this point I am open to pulling the troops home.

I quit even coming to this site due to the imature idiots. All they want to do is flame on each other.
I thought I could come here to find out what really happened. Who wants to sift through 120 some-odd crap comments to find some info?

I don’t know what happened...but I can give you a big fat guess!

The Tea Party must have cost a bundle...venue, security, sound equipment, etc....

the fee was charged to cover the costs....

If a personality of FOX headlines an event that has a fee, and that talent is not a paid headliner, it looks like they are lending their talent out to help folks raise money....

I agree that we must leave Afghanistan if the current so called rules of engagement are going to stay in place.

The biggest disappointment is the acquiescence of our esteemed generals who are going along to get along at the expense of the lives of our troops.

As for our troops on foreign soil, they are there for good reason. Rapid response and deterrent in some cases.

The ticket price was $5

The $5 charge keeps out most of zer0's supporters....

This story doesn’t pass the smell test. Hannity has been talking about this appearance on his radio show for weeks if not longer. I hardly think the “fox executives” would have waited until the last minute to pull the rug out from under. They would have wanted the details much earlier when Hannity agreed to do his show from the rally.

He is also responsible for the only voices against the Marxist World media machine...FOX News, The New York Post, The Wall Street Journal and the Weekly Standard.

Have you watched Fox News lately? In the mornings, they have 2-3 airheads who sat around and engage in mindless banter that anybody with just a tiny bit of intelligence would find annoying. They also like to report on a lot of sleaze. Sometimes it sounds like they are trying to compete with CNN or TMZ. If I have a grandchild or one of my grandnieces or nephews in the house, I absolutely cannot have Fox News on unless I have the remote in hand because of how much sleaze they run these days.

That's on top of their shoddy journalism where they just keep running the same stories all day. I know they rely more on the various news wire services than having their own reporters in the field, but it's ridiculous. Something has definitely changed lately. I don't know if it's all the Saudi money or what, but it's definitely earned the "Faux News" moniker.

He also cancelled the deal 20th Century Fox made to produce a movie out of the book smearing Clarence Thomas.

The same 20th Century Fox that was behind Avatar, the rape fantasy Jennifer's Body disguised as a zombie flick, and so on? So they pulled a movie smearing Clarence Thomas - Murdoch still shows he's more than happy making money off of sickos.

I woke up this morning, happy to be alive because you see I’m on oxygen 24/7 and probably shouldn’t be here. With the sun shining through my window I was having a beautiful moment in what might be a very difficult day. Your calling me an idiot has done some damage here and I wanted you to know the power of your words. Please use caution as you have robbed me of the strength I needed today.

Yes, but the question might be who controls Murdock?

It's not who, but what, and the answer to that is money.

Oh well, I wondered cause I had no clue what that meant. Hopefully, Hannity will clear it up today. I trust Hannity.

Who would trust anything the Los Angeles times reports?

Ok, well then how about the conservative WorldNetDaily.

I have no idea why I would bother spending time dealing with your ignorance and paranoid psycho babble, but the U.K. has always had a policy of open immigration to the people of former colonies. Even though this policy has destroyed this once amazing beacon it had nothing to do with Blair.

I love the way you completely ignore the Murdock facts and instead pick and choose bits and pieces that support your mental illness.

Murdock is right-leaning businessman who has never said he was a conservative, but he has provided the only outlets IN THE WORLD that promote any kind of truth or alternate voice against the Marxist din.

You fantasy world needs and update.
