Why Roger Ailes employs hacks like Hannity, Whorealdo, and Juan Williams is a mystery. He must be trying to drive away conservatives and shrink ratings. He’s succeeding in our household.
Many of the talking heads are just avatars to represent peoples anger...on both sides of the issues...so that when the country continues to go in a direction, we all have fought for our imaginary “team” and our “team leaders” walk us off the plank and try to get us in line.
And for the most part, people get in line.
Most of the screamers like Hannity, Maddow and others...I won’t pretend to know them all, I believe just play a role to give an outlet for passion...so that it eventually peters out.
I’m not explaining it correctly. But we are all viewed, both left and right, like worker bees, and the talking heads are the middle managers who manage feelings.
Hannity is a mindless cheerleader with no depth.
