What did Hannity discuss with Cohen?

[Siete]

regardless, he is on FOX NEWS Channel...

And how hard would it have been to just say before his 'bashing Mueller and the FBI segments of his on Cohen's search, ''Just so you know, I have used Michael Cohen for legal advice before.....'' ?

why would he do that?

Jesus, the depths we've sunk. Edward R. Murrow should reanimate, find you and kill you.

So many people don't understand what we have lost. The old greats, like Murrow, are rolling in their graves. That's also why I talk about about the documentary Orwell Rolls In His Grave. People don't realize that US media has been co-opted.

It wasn't that long ago that no company/corp could own more than one US media and no foreign entity could own any US media, period.

Fascinating to watch Ailes and Murdoch planning and plotting to steal US media right out from under our apathetic noses. They paid off then-FCC prez, Michael Powell (Colin Powell's son) to help them. They talked about using the phrase "fair and balanced" over and over and over until people believed it.

Now we have a prez who lies about US media almost every day.

Thanks to him, we now have an entire political party who is against free speech and free press.

Murdoch and Ailes have been very successful.

Yep and I don't see how we go back. How do you put Fox News journalism ethics (let alone Gateway Pundit) back in the bottle?

Deal with your opposition cry babies

the opposition has ZERO morals, Trumps base has ZERO morals, his personal media cheerleaders have ZERO morals - you'll find out how a country that prides itself on integrity and high moral standards deal with it .....

The long standing acknowledged lawyer/client relationship (and the Constitution?) goes right out the window when crazy lefties get a little power. God help us if the Clinton conspiracy was re-elected.

The Fox News host denies that Michael Cohen was ever his lawyer—but Hannity was represented by a pair of legal advisers who also have close links to the president.

or when the lawyer is primarily dedicated to helping the client get away with breaking the law.

Sean Hannity was very concerned about conflicts of interest — until he had one


There have been few bigger warriors when it comes to rooting out alleged conflicts of interest and media bias than Hannity. For months, he's been pointing to alleged conflicts in Robert S. Mueller III's investigation, and for years he's been accusing the mainstream media of allying with liberals and Democrats.

All of that collided in one story in 2015, when it was revealed that ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos failed to disclose $75,000 in donations to the Clinton Foundation. This was at issue because Stephanopoulos had just grilled conservative author Peter Schweizer over his book on the Clinton Foundation. For the better part of a week, the Stephanopoulos story was a mainstay on Hannity's show.

And plenty of things Hannity said about Stephanopoulos then could just as easily apply to Hannity and Cohen today.

“He was acting like an advocate, a special pleader, if you will, for the Clintons in that interview,” Hannity said. “The idea that they're saying that they — 'Oh, it was an honest mistake' — I don't believe that. I think he thought he'd get away with it and didn't disclose it.”

He added: “I mean, you don't think it's an innocent mistake? Once a Clinton crony hack, always one? He didn't think to disclose this? I don't buy it for one minute.”

.@RandPaul on Stephanopoulos: “There’s a direct conflict of interest there & I think really a breach of journalistic etiquette.” #Hannity

...another prominent example of Hannity saying a media figure should have disclosed a conflict of interest. It had to do with conservative commentator Armstrong Williams, who in 2005 was found to have failed to disclose $241,000 in payments from the Bush administration to promote the No Child Left Behind education law on his TV appearances and newspaper columns.

Even in defending Williams as having been forthright about his views on education, Hannity said it was appropriate for him to apologize for his failure to disclose the conflict.

“You did make a mistake,” Hannity said. “And I think you were right to apologize. And I think people ought to accept it.”





stephanopoulos has always been forthright in his views too but mr fake news insanity hannity isn't capable of being honest enough to tell the difference.



BTW has hannity apologized yet...........??

 

[Valerie]

Stephanopoulos's work for Bill Clinton was no secret (and he also came to repeatedly apologize, unlike Hannity). Hannity's relationship with Cohen, meanwhile, might have been secret forever if not for the court proceedings Monday. And however “minor” Hannity's relationship with Cohen, it seemed to have been significant enough that Cohen's lawyer would feel the need to declare it in court — after, curiously and notably, trying to keep it secret.

Dershowitz confronts Hannity: 'You should have disclosed your relationship with Cohen'

Hannity was revealed to be Cohen's client during a hearing Monday afternoon related to last week's FBI raids of Cohen's office, hotel room and home. Cohen's attorney only shared Hannity's identity after a judge ordered him to.

Hannity is a staunch ally of Trump’s and frequently defends the president on his Fox News show. He was fiercely critical of last week’s raids, using it as a launching point to attack special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election.


Trump's attack on the FBI is an attack on the US constitution itself

I truly have no idea. I know what I'd speculate it may have been: some sort of arrangement whereby Hannity used Cohen as a conduit for arranging to "kiss Trump's ass" and then stick his head way the hell up inside it.

What do you imagine they discussed?

Who cares?

good console?



spit it out, pops

Swallow it Del

2 of the 3 clients Cohen has
paid off women who had extramarital affairs. Is that his legal specialty? Is that why Hannity sought his legal advice? To protect himself from women who have the goods on him? Why was Hannity so defensive about having his name disclosed if it wasn’t to conceal schtooping a porn star, prostitute or a Playmate?

it's amazing how you let your hatred speculate your thoughts into reality so easily. would this be done to you, you'd likely be pissed as hell.

Ice maybe OT but maybe a smart guy like you can tell me why Trump cancelled russian sanctions? Did Hannity tell him?

My best educated guess is that Sean Hannity called Michael Cohen to get advice on how much he could push the conspiracy envelope so he didn't involve FOX NEWS in another Federal Law Suit. Sean Hannity is Trump's top political adviser. Hannity leads, Trump follows.

The White House press core has often accused the White house press secretary of quoting Sean Hannity.



FOX NEWS is involved in a Federal Law Suit over their conspiracy surrounding the death of a DNC staffer, Seth Rich--that Sean Hannity (FOX NEWS) is accused of manufacturing with White House oversite.
Trump Linked To Fox News’ Bogus Seth Rich Story, Lawsuit Alleges | HuffPost
Lawsuit: Fox News concocted Seth Rich story with oversight from White House

This story was concocted in an effort to deny the intelligence coming out of the FBI, the CIA, the Department of Homeland Security and 14 other intelligence agencies that Russia did in fact hack into DNC databases and interferred into the 2016 election.

This was done with the help of Julian Assange--(Wikileaks) founder who stated that it wasn't Russia that gave him those hacked DNC emails. They were trying to spin it onto Seth Rich.

Julian Assange has been holed up in the Ecuador Embassy for the last 5-1/2 years, avoiding extradition back to the United States to face charges on what he did during G.W. Bush's time. Basically putting a target on every American Soldiers back. Recently Assange leaked thousands of CIA documents informing terrorists on the tactics used to catch them. Mike Pompeo--Trump's CIA director called Julian Assange a known intelligence enemy of this nation that often works with Russia.
