Does Shawn Hannity Share Much of the Blame for Defeat of Roy Moore?
self ^ | 12/13/17 | vannnity

Posted on 12/13/2017 6:57:43 AM PST by The_Media_never_lie

Shawn Hannity did a number on Judge Roy Moore Senatorial campaign. Candidate Roy Moore allowed himself to be bushwhacked in a telephone interrogation on national television.

Hannnity acted as a prosecutor during the interview. How many Democrats when faced with a sexual scandal, encountered a prosecutorial styled interview? I cannot think of any.

Do you remember Steve Kroft's interview of the Clinton's, which was later called the "Stand by Your Man" interview because of Hillary's defense of Bill Clinton? They were all soft ball questions with no follow up. I wanted to smash my television! I wanted to smash my television because it was evident this was a damage control interview designed to put to rest the allegations of Bill Clinton's mistreatment of women.

Why did Hannity participate in the dismantling of Roy Moore? Did someone from the deep state give him a call? Why did Roy Moore agree to such a inquisition? I have to admit, the answers Moore gave were indeed creepy.

Never a prosecutorial styled interview of a Democrat! Double standard, brought to us this time by Shawn Hannity.

Absolutely.

When all is said and done, Sean Hannity is still Murdoch’s narcissistic b****.

Sean Hannity is no different than any other of his fellow television narcissists, all of whom play an intellectually dishonest and duplicitous “conservative” game with their audience.

It was obvious from the beginning that Hannity was out to trash Moore. He claims to be against liberals - then does all in his power to undermine a good conservative running against a far left liberal.

In the final measure, Hannity is an arrogant self-important blowhard, whose phony talking points - which he pontificates ad nauseum - amount to disingenuous rhetoric.

Sean Hannity valued his FOX paycheck over his integrity. That’s why he threw Moore under the bus. Enjoy Murdoch’s 30 pieces of silver, Sean - or rather, Mr. “independent” used ass wipe.

I listened to Hannity’s interview with Moore again this morning before I saw this thread. And it did strike me as very prosecutorial. Moore got tainted by a myriad of folks of various agendas. I wasn’t there 40 years ago. I don’t know what went on. And, to be very honest, I don’t really care at this point as it’s unknowable. I do know that the machine can make ANYONE of us look very guilty if they chose to do so. Finding out the truth no longer matters. And one doesn’t get the benefit of doubt if the machine is targeting you. There are too many bad motives out there, and there are too many people who are willing to believe anything they hear in the media. It’s a quite unfortunate state of affairs, but so much of it is human nature, and that will never change.

Obviously, Moore himself and the sex allegations bear most of the blame. But as long as we are looking at contributing factors, I think fellow Alabaman Sen Richard Shelby really hurt him. (Keep in mind that when an election is lost by a tiny margin, almost anything negative can be fingered as “the cause”.)

Maybe that numbnut Moore shouldn’t have rode up to vote on a horse, or done that interview with a 12-year-old girl, or disappeared during the last week of the campaign, or made other dumb missteps during the campaign. He was a bad candidate, and that’s why Trump supported Luther Strange in the first place. Moore is a loose cannon and an oddball. I don’t like losing the seat, but we should just move on and fight the Democrats in the next battle.

I’m really fed up at the moment. I hope Alabama is happy. They now have a pro-abortion senator who’ll be a solid vote for Planned Parenthood. Idiots.

McConnell is as dumb as a box of rocks. He now shot the useless Republicans in the foot and nothing will pass the Senate now. Plus 1 will be a joke.

Hannoty is the second jackass and he should be part of the stupid. Didn't support Moore and shot him down in the beginning.

President Trump acted like a fool in not supporting Moore from he beginning. Trump is beginning to look like he is ignorant when it comes to keeping the Senate. Trump will lose the Senate for sure because he is asleep.

Oh, you’re probably right. We live another day to fight. But I’m pretty disappointed at panty-waist Alabamians.

The candidate is to blame based on how he ran or didn’t run his campaign.

Sean had nothing to do with the loss.

I’m all for it, but dammit, you better vet them properly or this sh*t can happen.

It can happen as long as people believe, the rotten to the core, MSM as you apparently did. Why didn't you believe all those women that accused Trump, who is their real target now.

Matt Drudge is an unrepentant sodomite. You can be sure that he therefore will always defend his abominable behavior, and that of his fellow reprobates.

They are emboldened, and will use this method at every turn. They will pay big bucks to have women or men come before the cameras teary-eyed and say, “THAT PERSON SEXUALLY HARASSED ME!” or some such twaddle........................

Exactly.

The solution to that tactic is “the cartridge box.”

Trump’s fault for appointing Sessions as AG.

This did not have to happen.

Sessions - disaster
Moore - disaster.

Could have easily picked Rudy or Trey and avoided this mess.

Me too. The low turnout is inexcusable. As others have said, they own this.

Hannity’s influence is insignificant.

Sean is a 40 watt bulb with an occasional burst to 60 (+/-)
