Hannity okayed the Palin Pick?
Once again, FOX News seems to have blurred the line between news and advocacy even further. The blog, Everyone Is Entitled To My Opinion reports,

During Sean Hannity's Thursday, September 4, 2008 radio show, his friend Mark Levin, whose radio show follows Hannity's in some markets, dropped in to break some news. Levin seemingly forced Hannity to admit for the first time publicly that he was given a list of prospective running mates for Senator John McCain, including Governor Sarah Palin, to solicit his feedback in advance of the Palin announcement last Friday, August 29th.

We have already heard that Hannity took part in a fundraiser for Rudy Giuliani earlier in the presidential campaign. We know that Karl Rove is also an informal advisor to the McCain campaign.'

What's next? A nightly news show with Sarah Palin?

By the way, the blog also reports that there is bad blood between Hannity and Laura Ingraham. Awwww.

1. Newt had been advocating for her for a long time
Hannity doesn't have an original thought in his head

7. Thanks for the welcome!
:hi:

I first posted here back in 2001 or so... I had to take a nice long break from politics after the Rethugs stole the '04 election. I've been visiting DU for the past few months and finally decided to start posting again. It's nice to be back!

3. All these conservative assholes stick together. They would support Jeffrey Dahmer
if he were alive and running as a Rethug.
