I remember Bill O’Reilly used to interrupt his guests as well. He tried to say it was because of time constraints and that his guests would just ramble on. If Hannity would have fewer guests, they would have more time to talk.

Hannity is the bhawaawah type. Never an original idea emanated from his head. Pure moronic stuff. Another version of Judge Pirro. Stupid shallow stuff is what you get from these two.

If you really want brain feed with analysis watch the Laura Ingraham show- the only FoxNews show I watch.

Sean’s show is fine if you fast forward past the first 15 minute monologue, which is so repetitive for an everyday viewer. After that, the guests come on, although he does have a tendency to interrupt people.

The worst ever as far as talking over people is Ben Ferguson out of Memphis. He guest hosts in places, is nationally sindicated on Sunday evenings and I believe is a commentator on CNN.

I can’t stand that prick! I live and work in the Memphis area and I can’t listen to him on the drive home because he gives me a headache. Rushour traffic is bad enough and he makes life worse.

I listen to Dan Bongino’s podcast every night. He comes up with a lot of interesting things, especially regarding the Mueller witch hunt.

Dan Bongino's daily one-hour show pretty much replaces a whole day's worth of talk radio, and in much more detail.

Right now, I'm listening to Is There a Crime Epidemic in Sweden? | Sweden vs. Finland on J-F's channel. There's almost no coverage of the Islamic crime wave in Europe on mainstream American "conservative" media.

It really does a number on one's aural system, sort of like BleachBit for the ears!

Tucker lets guests talk too much. I wish he were more like Judge Judy would be though. Just cut people off when they don’t answer questions, then tell them, WE’RE DONE HERE..

Freepers bashing Trump’s number one supporter on TV. This is like a DU thread. If you don’t have anything good to say about our side please shutup.

Agree. The old shows are the only ones worth watching. I watch my videos of MacGyver and Stargate. Better than anything on TV today.

Thank you. Well said.

I sometimes get tired of Sean’s interviewing techniques but I cannot deny that he has been on the right side of truth and this country while the overwhelming majority of the major media talking heads are all about destroying this country.

At times, I think Hannity does more harm than good for conservatives while on TV. Why shouldn’t we be commenting about it? Hannity himself has admitted he needs to improve his interviewing skills, but he fails to follow through. His message would be far more effective, and his TV audience would increase. It just seems like a huge missed opportunity to get a cohesive message across, especially in light of the full-press by the Deep State.

Hannity lost me as a viewer years ago because he refuses to let his guests talk uninterrupted.

It's a dilemma. I can't watch Hannity either.

The Alinsky/Soros/Hillarite/Barack crowd INVENTED the filibuster-hijacked "interview." That seems to be a special skill of a certain subculture.

Allowing the enemy to overwhelm interviews as simply a doormat may be worse.

Hannity may need to solicit training from well known conservatives and Constitutionalists who seem to be able to manage the unruly enemies domestic without making himself look worse.

On the other hand, even Judge Piro exceeded her tolerance limit a few days ago, dealing with a black foul-mouthed legend-in-her-own-mind...

I hear Hannity on the radio. What’s a TV?

Oh! Bless your heart. I am a young'in but I refuse to cave into the times. I prefer radio as well!

Totally agree, but I still watch. The host that I can’t stand is Leland Vittert. He’s talks over everyone as he grunts and uh, uh, uh, uh...... Drives me NUTS.

Hannity is the worst in talking over his guests and not letting them complete a sentence. I just wish he would shut up after h is excellent introductory comments and let his guests fill in the blanks.

Tucker is young and restless but is picking up Hannity and Laura Ingraham’s bad habits. Not good.

My wife now hates Hannity for his rudeness and I can’t blame her.

The best host, as in Mark Levin and his Sunday night show, is to introduce the subject and the guest, ask an opening question, and then let the guest expound upon it for a while. Then ask the next question, etc.

Hannity just needs to STFU and let his guests talk. Sara Carter has lots to talk about and Hannity interrupts he before she gets two sentences out.

Hannity’s constant interjection about the fake dossier is a worn out phrase. Hannity, everyone knows it was bought and paid for by the DNC and Hillary. We’ve got it. He’s worse than Kerry’s, “I served in Vietnam.”

I think Hannity’s problem is he is so desperately trying to pound talking points into his watchers brains because he feels like he is one of the few fighting.
It gets a bit redundant at times.

It is a simple story.
Hannity was a sports commentator when he was "promoted" into the news department at Fox News and he was a fish out of water.

He never grew in his new role. He stopped learning about the world beyond sports and he was frozen there.

No knowledge about history. Geography. Philosophy. Human nature. Geopolitics. Economics. Ethics. Debate. Rhetoric.
Adopting the strategy of the political enemies was the easy solution to his personal problem.

After a year I could no longer enjoy listening to the ex-sports jock.

Prime lives near me

Obnoxious libtard

He’s lived off his very good debut for 47 years now

Critics darling

Americana music which means I don’t sell a lot of records anymore and I got Natalie Maines and Steve Earle on speedial

And yes I still listen to Earle....even though he’s tard too

“Shoot as fast as lightning but she load a mite slow”

“..Well him and my uncle tore that engine down
I still remember that rumblin’ sound
When the Sheriff came around in the middle of the night
Heard mama cryin’, knew something wasn’t right
He was headed down to Knoxville with the weekly load
You could smell the whiskey burnin’ down Copperhead Road”

“Gotta keep rockin’ why I still can
I gotta two pack habit and a motel tan”

I got Earles first ten years memorized

Usually I yell at Hannity when he is on the car radio. Just as a guest starts to say something particularly interesting, Hannity interrupts, to repeat yet again something he has already said a dozen times. He has no notion that his guests might say something worth hearing, so he does not listen to what they say.

He really is infuriating.

However, he gets very good guests, and sometimes they manage to get a few words in edgewise. He staff puts together good sound clips of lunatic leftists. His rants are about important subjects, and he is on the right side. He is better than nothing.
