Sean Hannity got his feelings hurt, so he decided to prove what a thin-skinned little hack he is.
Hannity was apparently upset when he read comments made by Fox host Shep Smith in an interview with Time Magazine.
Specifically, Smith had this to say about Hannity and his fellow Fox host, Tucker Carlson:
“They don’t really have rules on the opinion side. They can say whatever they want. If it’s their opinion. I don’t really watch a lot of opinion programming. I’m busy.”
Smith added that he’s a journalist and would never want to work on the opinion side of Fox “News”:
“They don’t really have rules on the opinion side. They can say whatever they want. If it’s their opinion. I don’t really watch a lot of opinion programming. I’m busy.”
Hard to argue with that since Smith was merely expressing his own opinion.
But Hannity was deeply offended and responded via Twitter:
While Shep is a friend with political views I do not share, and great at breaking news, he is clueless about what we do every day. Hannity breaks news daily-Warrant on a Trump assoc, the unmasking scandal, leaking intel, Fisa abuse, HRC lawbreaking, dossier and more REAL NEWS! 9p https://t.co/zJpnnyFTtP

Real news? That’s a laugh! And laugh is exactly what the Twitterverse did:
Since you are a TALK SHOW HOST, Shep has a point……

You're right Sean. Shep's not a fiction writer. He can't spread #FakeNews nearly as well as you do.

Seth Rich’s family members would disagree with you, Sean.
