I agree. Tucker was unwatchable tonight. I don’t tune in for that. Have already turned off The Five because of Juan William’s. He dumbs down interesting segments and his condescension is styphiling. #foxnews? Hello? You’re losing viewers. Do you care?
I have not tuned in Cavuto since then.
><
You haven’t missed anything good. He’s awful.
exactly right, and Tucker is the only one who does that, is not a cheerleader for any orthodoxy, and has the balls to have guests like Glenn Greenwald on. Hannity is MADDENINGLY repetitious, and I noticed this several years back. One feels stupid merely listening him to use the same phrases,the same buzzwords, and exercise the same talking points ad infinitum.
Its why you should always keep a nonworking, but untouched, tv around. thats the target tv.
Cavities leans anti-Trump too.
Hannity is a lost cause. Personable, bright but out of control. Example.
Hannity: “As you know, and I’ve said this before, and even wrote about in my last book, that New York is a city.”
Guest: “I wrote a recent column about NYC that describes...”
Hannity: “When I read your column I immediately called my famous super duper most awesome producer to call you immediately and book you on my show this evening...”
Waste of time. I watch OAN, KTLA 5 and get my news from Free Republic.
Hannity thinks he’s Rush. But he can’t keep it interesting so he has guests or callers. As soon as they start to speak he starts talking and when he’s finished repeating saying what he’s been saying the entire show, he goes to commercial or the next caller.
I stopped listening years ago
Stopped watching Fox News and all cable news programming a long time ago. I only listen to Rush and sometimes Hannity when I’m in my car running errands. The rest of the time I spend on FR and The Liberty Daily.
Is it going to be a Jeopardy question sometime soon?
It is all like a TV soap opera, you can miss a week or even a month and not miss a thing. It is all on replay on any network you choose to watch. Hannity is a pro at monotonous repetition.
I've got over 50 youtubers and podcasters that I check periodically who are more useful than talk radio. To find time for this I had to give up talk radio. I don't miss it.
I used to throw things at the TV a few times when Clinton was giving SOTU speeches. Thankfully it was beast 36” tube that could take a lot of abuse.
I listen to Dan Bongino’s podcast every night. He comes up with a lot of interesting things, especially regarding the Mueller witch hunt.

The ubiquitous Juan Williams NEVER has anything true or honest to say.I guess if they let him go at this point, there will be cries of “Racism!!”. He is just insufferably stupid.
No one is perfect. Sean does interrupt his guests. He has sometimes bad timing contrasted with the guest’s timing. Sean is trying to organize each segment and trying to maintain his control of it. His priorities in his head are not the priorities of the listening audience. He is as earnest as a puppy and he means very well, but he does forget to be his own audience. He is trying to synthesize the info he wants to get out for the segment. In doing so, he sometimes frustrates us.
His tv show is not for intellectual politically knowledgeable conservatives. For them he is too slow and repetitive. Intellectual, well informed conservatives Only watch his show to see the guests. Sean is focused on less well informed, maybe less conservative voting Americans. We have the smart conservatives’ votes already. Sean is after the new people who may never have realIzed the simple political truths we all have taken for granted.
Sean Hannity does an amazing, tireless job of supporting our side. He is virtually alone on tv doing so. He has more courage in his little finger than a clown car full of chubby talk radio hosts. He’s put his salary and lifestyle and potentially his life on the line for us. He means it. This last year he has been at great risk. And this wasn’t the first time. He was the only radio host to talk about the threats given to those who might mention the new President Obama’s ineligibility.
He is a treasure for the USA. He will never be perfect. But with his long days of trying to inform people of what is actually going on, and getting it more right than most, he is arguably as essential to our country as those serving in the armed forces. And yes, he is paid handsomely, but that is not where his heart is. He’s not about the money, though he deserves it.

heheheh.
It's formulaic teevee. Gotta have controversy and argument, and make it fit 4 minute 30 second segments.
Thinking people rejected teevee for all but background, decades ago.
That radio theme song is terrible.
Yup.
