Sean Hannity Is Going to War With FOX News: "I Am Not FOX News.com, I Retract Nothing,"
Vice News ^ | May 23 2017, 5:00pm | MIKE PEARL

Posted on 05/23/2017 7:12:17 PM PDT by drewh

The FOX News host is refusing to stop his investigation into the grisly murder of Seth Rich.

Sean Hannity, FOX News host went out on a limb Tuesday in defense of his coverage, calling his critics "phony hypocrites." Hannity wants to know who killed Seth Rich, even if the mainstream media and his own colleagues want him to stop.

The murder of Seth Rich, a young Democratic National Committee staffer, has inspired a lot of speculation in the right-wing media and on FOX, the gist of which is that he was murdered by Democratic operatives as revenge for being a whistleblower who delivered the notorious DNC emails to WikiLeaks. If Rich were the leaker, the thinking goes, there wouldn't have been any Russian hacking, therefore the entire investigation into the Trump campaign's Russian connections would be nonsense.

But the theory is bigger than any one figure—it's so huge it has its very own subreddit.

Hannity spent much of Tuesday tweeting about Rich. His big "source" is Kim Dotcom, a New Zealand webpreneur. Dotcom has been claiming for days that he knew Rich, and that he has information that proves Rich had delivered a collection of DNC emails to WikiLeaks. On Tuesday, what was revealed was a blog post at Dotcom's website, Kim.com, about a person in 2014 who went by "Panda" chatting with Dotcom about "corruption and the influence of corporate money in politics." Dotcom claims that Panda was Rich and hinted vaguely about more to be revealed in the future. On Tuesday night, Hannity is scheduled to interview Dotcom on his show.

Throughout Tuesday afternoon, Hannity carried on talking about the Seth Rich case on his radio show. Times.

"I am not FOX.com or FOXNews.com. I retract nothing," he told listeners.

Well Seth Rich was no Trayvonn Martin.

Sorry Seth no justice for you.

The war has started people. We are in the first stages.
Better be praying fervently for President Trump.

[ Hannity says he would never recover f he lost his kids or a family member right before he says he’s dropping the Seth Rich story for now...

They threatened his family ]

Always carry a tape recorder with you if crap like this is happening, when they threaten your family, record it, then LIVE on air play it back into the mic...

Then leave the studio EFF THEM.

He attended both NYU and Adelphi. He didn’t stay through his degree but it is not accurate to say he “never went to college.”

Still, he’s enjoyed tremendous success, whatever his background. I don’t find I like any of the TV talking heads much, but he is one of the better ones.

The EXTREME RADIOACTIVITY of mere mention of Seth Rich in the media SHOULD TELL ANYONE WITH A BRAIN THAT SOMETHING VERY SERIOUS IS BEING COVERED UP HERE.

Seth discovered that his own DNC SABOTAGED Bernie and upon learning this he decided to become a whistle-blower and turn to Wikileaks, and he did. He was then murdered. Gee, I wonder who the culprit could be... TEAM HILLARY.

re: “sloppy hit job”

That’s one thing that makes conspiracy theories look dubious, this was a shaky, unreliable way to “off” someone (he might have survived, and/or he might have talked to EMS/Police/hospital staff as long as he was still alive) — not a professional job at all. Even if someone wanted to make it “appear” to be other than a professional job, they would surely guarantee that he stopped breathing quickly (bullet in the heart or head), even if they made the crime scene look sloppy so it would not appear to be a “pro” involved.

It is strange that there seems to be no robbery motive (unless a robber panicked at unexpected resistance), but I find it difficult to credit assertions that this was any “professional” hit. For a pro this would be incompetence.

The case demands better & more competent, thorough investigation for sure, but I don’t see any good reason to accept that this was a “hit”....

Hillary had Seth murdered because if the TRUTH were known that it was HE who furnished incriminating files to Wikileaks, IT WOULD BLOW THE 'TRUMP-RUSSIA COLLUSION' AND 'RUSSIAN HACKING OF THE ELECTION' NARRATIVE RIGHT OUT OF THE WATER!!! So, she had to SHUT HIM UP to keep the FALSE NARRATIVE ALIVE!

One person left who knows, and that's Assange. Notice his rape charge was just DROPPED. Hmmmm, payoff from Hillary to keep him from talking?

That’s a theory, waiting to see the EVIDENCE.

Those are not facts, merely assertions, so far.

Are you serious?

Hannity has been a “must listen to” these past 2 years. Tip of the spear. The best guests...On point...Riveting.

One of the 2 or so talk show hosts that made it through this election with his career and reputation intact. A true patriot.

Limbaugh’s shtick was old in the 90’s...now he’s just a bloated oxycontin-ridden shell and parody of his former self. A not so coy neverTrumper. An exposed fair weather ‘patriot’.

He’s one of a handful that has been at the vanguard in the fight against the corrupt state and the Clinton-Soros-Omuslim cabal

Check yourself, goron.

“The D.C power structure is threatened in a major way and this is war. Don’t sit back and arm chair this thing. If BO can be taken down, Hannity is the next domino.”

A voice of sanity.

The left are closing ranks. Silencing all voices on the right before they launch their reichstag fire event. It’s coming...

I didn’t watch the show, but from my understanding, Kim isn’t going to give any interviews yet. Sean Hannity wanted to have Kim on tonight. Presumably he couldn’t since Kim wouldn’t do it yet. Based on this, I am not sure why everyone is claiming Hannity is “dropping” anything.

“Hillary had Seth murdered because if the TRUTH were known that it was HE who furnished incriminating files to Wikileaks, IT WOULD BLOW THE ‘TRUMP-RUSSIA COLLUSION’ AND ‘RUSSIAN HACKING OF THE ELECTION’ NARRATIVE RIGHT OUT OF THE WATER!!! “

Team satan had Seth murdered for the simple fact that they could and to send a message.

After 28 years of Obamas,Clintons & Bushes, the entire federal gubbermint is irreparable corrupt and so is the fakestream media.
“There is no controlling legal authority”
Never a good thing when you have true believing stalinists & maoists in the executive branch coupled with Clinton blood lust.

They don’t give a sh!t about the Trump-Russia narrative imploding, they’re caught 20 times a day being hypocritical aholes.

What they’re worried about with the Seth Rich investigation is if this onion is peeled, their entire ‘wetworks’ program will be uncovered. Seth is not the only one, Scalia was taken out & no doubt breitbart, too.

The fakestream media would have trouble trying to spin the fact that team satan (Omuslim, soros, Hillary, corrupt state, etc) are running banana republic style death squads within the United States.

The CIA thanks you for being a gullible chump and for using their own construct, ‘conspiracy theory’, to brow beat those who dare to question the official narrative.

>> Blue chip corporations are clearly blacklisting conservative media.

Such as Disney, Comcast, Time Warner, CBS?

Millions bitch about the MSM idiots, but readily ignore the corporations funding the payrolls.

Ignorance is bliss...

Losing interest in the yammering idiots screaming at the enslaved MSM.
