To: usurper

he is covering the story day after day. No matter what he calls himself he is personally connected to the attorney and he should disclose to the audience. If liberal did this .we’d all be typing in capital letters.

So basically its a conflict of interest story..and..again, what does this have to do with Russia..this story is about a TV personality who got legal advice from someone who is also the attorney for someone Hannity has supported since the beginning so what

You could not be more wrong. People like Hannity who are in the opinion business have conversations with all kinds of people all the time. So he had consultations with an attorney who also had Trump as a client. So what.

Your post co-mingles things that have nothing to do with each other.

The driving force behind Hannity is that he is pro-Trump, believing Trump to be the closest currently to his primary idol, Ronald Reagan, among those who ran for President and were electable.

There is no issue whatever in regard to Hannity occasionally using Cohen as a legal consultant. That is all he did. Hey, Cohen, legally, what is your opinion on x or y?

Would such a thing influence YOU, if you were already an open Trump supporter, to somehow slant your opinions in favor of Trump/Cohen? Therefore somehow in detriment to others, such that you were obligated to talk about your legal consults with Cohen? Be honest.

Hannity heralds his beliefs/slants already. He is a commentator who wears his views on his sleeve. Which views have absolutely nothing to do with Cohen.

You’re raising an irrelevancy, then to compound the error, twisting it.

I agree with you that Hannity should have disclosed that he has a relationship with Cohen. I feel it calls his credibility into question; particularly as it would have been such an easy thing to do, but the fact he did not do it makes it look shady.

Hannity is a long-time pro and should have known better. If it were, let’s say Maddow or “Tingle-Leg” Matthews, and Barry Soetoro’s lawyer Hannity himself would have been all over them.

Not unethical, not illegal, just kind of dumb and dissapointing. Particularly so because it just injects so much more noise into what is already a massive pile of garbage Conservatives have to deal with in America.
