Why? Hannity is under no obligation to disclose that he consulted with Cohen or anyone else.

Ummm, Hannity said it because he never hired the guy.

Yep, she’s surfaced in at lease one divorce proceeding as the “other woman,” I think.

Hannity needs to hire several high-powered lawyers and start taking scalps.
He can start with Judge Kimba Woods’ head.

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.

Secondly. Hannity and others should now SUE Cohen for breaching lawyer/client privileges.

The client's name, by itself, is not subject to the attorney-client privilege, except in rare circumstances, which probably does not apply here.

But then there's no attorney client privilege.

You are wrong: The attorney-client privilege applies to any communication with an attorney for the purpose of obtaining legal advice. A formal retainer or an invoice for services rendered is not required to invoke the privilege.

Thanks. I should have phrased my response as the “alleged payment.”

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.

Only those who are nuttier than fruitcakes.

In their frenzied quest to “get” Trump the left is setting some precedents that I’m quite positive they don’t want applied to themselves at any time.

How the hell can any judge order an attorney to release a client’s name

Hand in the NY Phone book, tell the judge - they are in there.

If no money changed hands then Cohen is not his lawyer. You are not protected by privilege in that case. This has been fairly clear in the past that random conversations are not covered because there has to be a paid retainer.
