Hannity Revives Kerry-Fonda Smear

Hannity shouldn't be allowed to get away with this kind of intellectual dishonesty. To his credit, co-host Alan Colmes called him on it on the television show, but Hannity has no balance whatsoever on the radio show.

1. Hannity's job
is to try to scare the right wingers into re-electing Bush. Whether it be taking Dem quotes out of context, comparing lefties to terrorists, or using photshopped pics to prove his point.

I think he is a much better radio show guy than Limbaugh(ugh is all I have to say) and I listen to him all the time, but his tactics have arent admirable in the least.

Sorry, I couldn't resist the lure of a bad joke.

4. Basic propaganda technique
When you come up with a good smear (kerry-fonda) you report it, then it is debunked. Wait a week, then start really pounding it home. The media ignores the second go-around because they figure it is a dead issue. My wing-nut grandmother still insists Hillary Clinton will be the Democratic nominee. No matter how I try to explain the impossibility of this she always responds "We'll see" And knowing her when the nominee is actually selected she will say either "Well HIllary hand-picked X" or "Hillary decided Bush couldn't be beaten so she is waiting until after his next term" Never would she say "You were right, she was never running"

5. yeah
Well Im not knocking Hannity for not serving( I dont know too many 30 yr olds who left their jobs to join the army and serve in the Gulf War) I will say that he shouldnt pretend to understand things he knows nothing about.

6. "Hitler Hannity" will always smear the Dems! He's the ultimate....

"fascist" partisan hack out there.

Sean "Hitler Hannity" is one of the worse human beings ever.
If he could, he would have us living under a right-wing, fascist,
theological state.

:puke:
