I try to listen to him, but he never lets his guests talk. It’s always about him.

Same here. Sometimes he has guests I want to hear, so I'll mute him and turn it up for them, but he just talks over them. Highly annoying.
Not that CNN or MSNBC have a lot of winners, either. Or any.
Fox has a few daytime peeps that more or less play it straight, but nobody has meny that aren't advocates for one side or the other.
If I were 30 years younger, I would start a neutral political website. I would have to write my own stories, though, b/c nobody else writes any.

I've always thought that Hannity's guests were better than Hannity.

RE: Hannity Lawyers Up
That’s the thing with me as well. He never lets the guests complete a sentence. And it is all about him.
He used to be really good, then he got the big head and became insanely wealthy. He did earn it though, and those people make a ton of money at that level.
Tucker will make Hannity money soon.

Even at night, Shanon Bream and Martha McKallem are pretty even handed. They basically just ask questions and let the guests answer. Tucker is clearly conservative, but has no issue being critical of conservatives when they deserve it. You’ll never get anyone nearly as even handed as Mcallem, Bream, or even Carlson on CNN or MSNBC at night. Everyone on those networks at night is a propaganda slinging Official mouth piece for the DNC. You will never see anything or anyone representing the opposing point of view—thats not allowed at CNN or MSNBC.

Sounds like a stupid tweet. Sandman's attorney has no say on the employment status of a CNN employee.
True. However CNN is likely to get tagged in the pocket book some more for this. The settlement agreement likely had a liquidated damages clause in it for an event such as this. Even if it did not Sandman couldn’t still pursue CNN for the breach.

the 'Joisy girl' on his radio show is pretty good when she gets the op to chime in....
he's most definitely a narcissistic rambler....however, his message is usually spot-on for the classic con....
it's not difficult to realize why DJT uses him as a lackey for one on one interviews....

RE: Hannity Lawyers Up
I’m not a big fan of Hannity. His show is just one cliche after another and he does it night after night for weeks on end: “Russia, Russia; Ukraine, Ukraine; Impeach, Impeach!!!” Plus, I think he loses a lot of credibility when he defends every single action and Tweet of President Trump. I’ll be voting for Trump again in November but not everything he says and does is defensible.

Hannity Lawyers Up
Hannity serves a purpose to get out a conservative list of talking points for those that can't think for themselves (the left has just about every other TV talk show for this), but Im not sure in 20 years I've ever heard an independent thought or idea on his show. That's why Tucker is so much better... fresh perspective.

RE: Hannity Lawyers Up
Does anyone tune in Martha McCallum at 7pm (est). I like her - she is easy on the eyes of course, but she asks good questions and make per points.
She interviewed Rep Swalwell about that embarrassment of a hearing with Barr yesterday and was not shy about blasting him/them for how they would not let Barr finish a single question.

RE: Hannity Lawyers Up
Know some people who met Hannity when he was in town with George W Bush campaigning for our congressman who was running for reelection. Everyone said he's genuinely a really nice guy not too good to talk to anyone. He's got better rep than, say, Bill O'Reilly ever had in that regard.
I agree his show isn't what it used to be, though.
