Fox News host Sean Hannity said in a Playboy interview published Wednesday that he never helped propagate the conservative conspiracy theory that President Barack Obama is a secret Muslim.
Hannity: I Never Suggested Obama Was Muslim
Playboy Interview - Sean Hannity
PLAYBOY: Fox News overall hit a 12-year ratings low in January and recently had a record low in a poll on viewer trust. The perception among many is that Fox News is out of it. Is there anything youÂ’re doing to change that perception?
PLAYBOY: LetÂ’s talk about the racial dimension of having successful black conservatives on your show attacking the president. WhatÂ’s the fascination?
HANNITY: Who? I donÂ’t know who youÂ’re talking about.
PLAYBOY: Dr. Ben Carson, Allen West, J.C. Watts, Herman Cain——
It's hilarious. He also says he is NOT a Republican.
Is there anything a right winger won't lie about?
Sean Hannity was the one who said off the record that everyone at FOX NEWS was told that when the birth certificate discussion came up they were to ridicule it and take the position that they didn't get into conspiracy stuff. That they were to avoid the topic of Obama being a Muslim and avoid the birth certificate issue and make sure to shoot it down with ridicule. Everyone who wanted to keep their jobs followed orders according to Hannity. He was not the only one to leak that information about FOX policy.
As to the matter of Obama's father being a Muslim - his mother was also Jewish - so there's that.
But probably more disturbing is Hannity doing an interview with Playboy
right on the heels of Rumors that Obama administration had that Rolling Stones Journalist assassinated because of his investigation into corrupt FBI / CIA op. He got too close and someone planted a car bomb. Interesting that eyewitnesses have already come forward stating they saw the car explode into flames, no car accident - just a huge explosion - the car turned into a fireball. What was he investigating the FBI and CIA for? I never could find out. According to police report he hit a tree and his mercedes exploded into a fireball - yeah right. A mercedes? Good luck with that.
Eyewitnesses say there was no tree - it exploded into a fireball right before their eyes. No tree, no speeding.
The Rolling Stones Journalist said the night before he died - his car exploded into flames ( suspect car bomb - police have official version as his car hit a tree at high rate of speed - that excuse was used for last guy that was asssassinated ) that he was being watched and followed since he began to uncover a story about CIA / FBI. Evidently before he died he said he was in fear for his life and felt they were going to try and kill him. A few days later? He's dead.
Interesting Hannity would be doing this interview now as it looks like Rolling Stone Magazine is on the outs now over the
Journalist ( who was assassinated ) and also since General McKrystal told the world how he really felt about Obama in the Rolling Stone article a year or two ago. News keeps getting stranger by the day! - Jeri
