Sean Hannity has gone "underground" while contemplating his future at Fox News.

Courtesy of IJR: 

Hannity has gone “underground” and is actively considering whether or not he will return to Fox News on Tuesday, a source close to Hannity told Independent Journal Review. It's a stunning development at the network, which has seemingly remained in a constant state of turmoil since the ouster of the late Roger Ailes. 

Speculation ran wild earlier this week when the network announced Hannity would be taking a mid-week vacation amid controversy over the host’s promotion of unverified reports suggesting a link between murdered DNC staffer Seth Rich and his alleged contact with WikiLeaks. Hannity is currently facing threats of advertiser boycotts from liberal groups like Media Matters. Multiple companies have since pulled ads from “Hannity.” 

In response to the rumors, a Fox News spokesperson said Hannity would “be back on Tuesday” after his Memorial Day weekend vacation, and people who “suggest otherwise are going to look foolish.” 

But the well-placed source said Hannity has since retreated to isolation — even temporarily “swearing off” social media — while he makes a decision regarding his future at Fox News. Hannity’s last tweet was posted on Thursday afternoon. 

“He has stopped answering his phone, and communicating even with his close friends,” the source added.

Oh please, Hannity is getting canned and he knows it.

He is leaking this information to give the appearance that he has some say in whether he continues on at the cable outlet, but with advertisers fleeing like their hair is on fire, and his refusal to accept the truth about that Seth Rich story, I think we all know that he is simply trying to save face.

Though with a face like that I am not sure it is really worth saving.

    I have seen people attacking USAA for pulling their ads from Hannity screaming the two big right wing talking points. USAA is caving to pressure from people funded by George Soros and are trying to take away Hannitys right to free speech. Once again they show ignorance of the First Amendment. USAA is not the government and have not infringed on Hannitys free speech. He can continue to be the total asshole he is but advertisers have the right not to support him. And consumers have the right not to support the advertisers. As for consequences of using free speech, just ask the Dixie Chicks. And Hannity supporters scream that george Soros is using his money to influence politics, but not a peep about the Mercers, the Kochs or Sheldon addleson,

    dtt-"just as ANGRY and resentful as before he lost his phone privileges. Trump needs his followers to keep believing him and keep blaming the press. This hatred for the press is what enabled Gianforte’s assault on a reporter, and it’s a hallmark of the loss of freedom."

      "during the campaign, an imagined litany of Clinton’s fury titled “Let Me Remind You Fuckers Who I Am” went viral. “Oh, I am [pissed],” she says. But as a woman in public life, “you can’t be ANGRY for yourself. You just can’t. You can be indignant, you can be annoyed, you can be frustrated, but you can’t be ANGRY … I don’t think anger’s a strategy.”

    Dan the Man Rather:
    http://www.rawstory.com/2017/05/dan-rather-blasts-trump-for-not-treating-portland-attack-as-a-terrorist-act/

    FB"Dear President Trump,
    Their names were Taliesin Myrddin Namkai-Meche and Ricky John Best. One was a recent college graduate. The other was an army veteran and father of four. I wish we would hear you say these names, or even just tweet them. They were brave Americans who died at the hands of someone who, when all the facts are collected, we may have every right to call a terrorist. A third brave man, Micah David-Cole Fletcher, was wounded in the knife attack.
    This story may not neatly fit into a narrative you pushed on the campaign trail and that has followed you into the White House. They were not killed by an undocumented immigrant or a "radical Islamic terrorist." They were killed in an act of civic love, facing down a man allegedly spewing hate speech directed at two teenage girls, one of whom was wearing a hijab. That man seems to have a public record of "extremist ideology" - a term issued by the Portland Police Bureau.
    This "extremism" may be of a different type than gets most of your attention, or even the attention in the press. But that doesn't make it any less serious, or deadly. And this kind of "extremism" is on the rise, especially in the wake of your political ascendency. Most people who study these sorts of things do not think that is a coincidence. I do not blame you directly for this incident. Nor do I think other people should. But what a President says, who he has around him, and the tone he sets can set the tone for the nation at large.
    Perhaps Portland, Oregon is off your radar. It is, after all, a rather liberal place. It's even a "sanctuary city." But it is still an American city. And you are its President. Two Americans have died leaving family and friends behind. They are mourned by millions more who are also deeply worried about what might come next.
    I hope you can find it worthy of your time to take notice."

    Trying to defame Hillary has FINALLY turned and bit him on his flabby arse. He always looks close to tears, trying to get everyone around him to insult Hillary. She is too smart for him, as she proved during 11 hours of questioning by the idiots in politics, who were pounding on Benghazi, Benghazi, Benghazi. tRump has plenty to be shamed about, but gets a free pass, since he has (R) behind his name. Sean should thank his lucky stars that he made so much money, being a dropout and homely as hell.

      BSMP LLC doesn't seem to have done much for BSMP, does it? She is still posing with shittea and boxes of junk and her fake blog clearly didn't make any money.

      The only thing she has ever been good at is spreading her legs- and the market for that has shrunk...

    OT?"Mulvaney remarked, “This is the first time, I think, in a long time that an administration has written a budget through the eyes of the people who are actually paying the taxes. We’re not going to measure our success by how much money we spend but by how many people we actually help.” And at his March news conference, Mulvaney disdainfully told reporters Meals on Wheels didn’t help the people it was designed to serve. “Meals on Wheels sounds great,” but “to take that federal money and give it to the states, and say, ‘Look, we want to give you money for programs that don’t work’ — I can’t defend that anymore.”

    FYI "And on the seventh day, they retracted."
    http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2017/05/28/how-i-got-fox-news-to-tell-the-truth-about-violent-lesbian-gangs

    "Ten years ago, Rod Wheeler, then styled a “Fox News crime analyst,” appeared on the “The O’Reilly Factor” to report that “all over the country” hundreds of gangs of pink pistol-packing lesbians were terrorizing victims."The gangs were armed and committing crimes, Wheeler warned, and numbered “well over” 150 in the Washington, D.C., area alone. Tragically, he informed host Bill O’Reilly, “some of the kids have actually reported that they were forced into, you know, performing sex acts with some of these people.”
    And that wasn’t all. “Now, the other thing, too, that our viewers are going to find very, very interesting, is the fact that they actually carry — some of these groups carry pink pistols,” I was the editor of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Intelligence Report, an investigative magazine, and our reporters David Holthouse and Susy Buchanan demolished virtually every claim in the O’Reilly segment, including O’Reilly’s own assertions that “in Tennessee” a lesbian gang called Gays Taking Over was “raping young girls” and that “in Philadelphia” another called Dykes Taking Over was “terrorizing people.”“The day after this story was posted on the Southern Poverty Law Center’s website in July [2007], Rod Wheeler issued a ‘clarification and apology,’ in which he claimed that he had only ‘inadvertently stated’ that lesbian gangs carry pink-painted pistols, that he hadn’t meant to say that there were 150 lesbian gangs in the Washington, D.C., area … that he hadn’t meant to say there was a ‘national epidemic’ of lesbian gangs, and that he hadn’t meant to defame the Pink Pistols group [the name of a real lesbian shooting club]. A day later, Bill O’Reilly offered his own weak clarification, saying his report featuring Wheeler’s false assertions had been ‘overstated,’ but insisting it contained a core of truth.”not a real attempt to correct the rancid hysterical and fact-free “news” culture that has dominated Fox from the beginning."

    Pretty soon he can join Bill O'Reilly at Glenn Beck's club for losers.
