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.

LOL......today Beck was Ron Paul.
Beginning to wonder if Beck has a core.
Better he not appear, then. Patriots in these crazy days can afford to have idols. Hannity is a hard worker, and earnest — buy there should be no idols in this movement.
Hey, no problem! I thought it might be of interest. And it seems like it is, with almost 3,000 views. Such trollish/newbie behavior, I know.
“Why isn’t this being reported more about the Arab connection controlling Fox News? This needs to be shouted from the rooftops. Conservatives, you can’t trust anything come from Fox News until the Arab funding of Rupert Murdoch’s empire is fully exposed.”
This has been reported on FR several times with several articles. Did you miss them?
I would have attended an open rally, or one only asking for a food donation, but no way I was going to pay to see Hannity.
It looks like Media Matters (of course) was looking into this angle for a while and making an issue out of it...I actually heard about Hannity being “rushed back to NY” from people on Twitter who were in attendance at the Cincinnati tea party, as I mentioned earlier. *If* the story is even true, I’m sure he didn’t know about it until after the radio show wrapped. As for posting the story, I was searching for news about what happened, and the LA Times thing was merely the first to show up.
Trust me...
Newbies are not the only ones who get called names around here...
Good for you, defending yourself! I hope you are right because it sort of comports with my view of Hannity as a shameless self-promoter.
We'll see.

Thanks for the update. Sounds more reasonable than the original LA Slime story.
I heard a re run of Ron Paul at the Southern Leadership Conference he was spouting that same nonsense.
Bring all the troops home. Paul went on to say how wonderful it was that we lost in Viet Nam and how the country of VN is so great now. A trading partner.
There is insanity out there and we need to be pointing it out.
We are in South Korea for good reason. The NK would overrun that country in a heartbeat. We remain in Japan for good reason as well. And we remained in West Germany all the while East Germany was controlled by the Soviets. Now most of our troops are no longer based in Germany.
Evidently Beck forgets that those who ignore history are doomed to repeat those mistakes.
I believe that is just internet gossip....if you have a proof statement re: Obama’s Fulbright application...I’d love to see it.
Wow, Deb! I’m on yer side....We have trolls, not newbies...They are Obama borne carcinogens, pathogens and every other kind of hyenas roaming around the web...shoot them all
Bullfrog
That's certainly a STUPID statement.
Unintentional circumstances happen even to the best of the best when a person may be trying to do a good thing. Too many handlers.
Hannity would enjoy the blind support of FReepers when he has talked so many times of how FReepers put him down. He should take note of the undying love here.
It's not about Hannity--it is about We the taxpaying, hard working, People who are under the ongoing spending practices of Big Government stealing our money by forcing the purchase of a product in order to pay for the redistribution of wealth, to those that feel they have the right to take your money and ours for their own personal comfort.
So...you and Deb were never new? When did you lose your “troll” status? What kind of initiation do I have to go through to meet your approval? Or will I just never belong? Please inform!
You have no clue. Murdoch through his Sun and Times of London newspaper supported Blair and the Labour Party which is a fact. Blair and the left in the UK engaged in open borders and the Islamification of the UK. Fact. Completely renounced the Labour Party - great - after they destroyed the UK - it’s over.
Blair married a chicom and pretty much pushed his kids out. The one son was a pretty good person and a christian. Murdoch sold part of News Corp to the Saudis - Fact. All here cares about is access to China and now the middle east.
Conservatives need to dump TV period. Fox’s Saudi ties and Murdoch other dealings are bad but the others are even worse vermin.
