Big Scoop from Hannity 🙄

You know all those blacked-out lines in Mueller's recent filings? Well, last night Hannity revealed they conceal crimes committed by Democrats (Gasp!)


His secret source says the redacted text names John Podesta's brother and a few of Fox News' usual Dem suspects.

Seriously, I flipped over to Fox News, curious to see how they were responding to Friday's court documents. First thing I hear is Insanity making this claim. So, after a mere 20 seconds, I LOL'd and switched off the TV.

Jeez! No wonder the Trumplicans have such a flawed sense of reality!

Plus, he's been Trump's top advisor and confidant since the campaign.

I bet you're right, Siwsan.

They think that if they made it up, that means it's true. Hannity probably actually believes what he's saying because he made it up and therefore it's true.

I'very heard several R-wingers use variations of that line, which apparently is their green light to fabricate Alternate Facts.

too ridiculous for Hannity say on air. I wonder if he and others at Fox even realize how far-fetched they've become over the years. The insanity is snowballing now.

They've gone from being a right-wing news station with a tendency to be more entertainment than news, to being a silly tabloid like the National Enquirer.

It is a slippery sloop once you start compromising actual news to fulfill an agenda. In order to hold their audience, they have to get more and more outrageous every day until it becomes a Jerry Springer style station. Fox viewers are like the frog being slowly boiled, they don't even notice the news has become totally absurd.
