Michael Cohen represented Fox News host Sean Hannity, Cohen's lawyers were forced to reveal in federal court on Monday. “We have been friends a long time. I have sought legal advice from Michael,” Hannity told the Wall Street Journal. Cohen was present at a hearing where his attorneys are challenging the FBI’s seizure of documents he claims are protected by attorney-client privilege. Cohen’s other two clients in recent years, he said, are President Donald Trump and Elliot Broidy, a Republican fundraiser. Cohen negotiated non-disclosure agreements with Trump and Broidy's alleged mistresses.

How in the hell is it appropriate to make that information public?

CNN giggling like girls when they reported Hannity is a client of the same lawyer of the president. Sheppard Smith doing an daily interview for a job at CNN. What a nauseating POS.

The Deep State STASI thinks that measures of appropriateness and legality don’t apply to them. They think ANYTHING GOES applies to them.

They are both wrong and lawless.

it’s probably easily found on LexisNexis in paperwork for court cases. Attributing the info to sleazy search warrant raids is just a way to mislead the public.

Sounds like Hannity will have to hire another lawyer to sue them for disclosing this. I’m sure we will hear about it for 3 hours a day on the radio 1 hour on TV

Here’s hoping these fishing-for-any-charges-will-do hacks ALL face disbarment and criminal charges for prosecutorial abuses etc.

And how is there anything wrong with that? Why did the judge make it public, though? What does any of this have to do with Russian collusion?

It's not.

But that is not the point.

These people will do ANYTHING.

Oh, good grief... the radio just described Hannity as “a close Trump advisor.”
