Sean Hannity joined Ted Koppel on CBS Sunday Morning for an interview about partisan news shows. The interview was tense from the start as Hannity told Koppel the ”press in this country is out to destroy this president.”
Sean Hannity’s television program on Fox has a nightly audience of 2.9 million viewers. He has, from the first, promoted Donald Trump and a highly-partisan agenda.
“Honestly, I think liberalism has to be defeated,” Hannity told Koppel. “Socialism must be defeated in a political sense. We don’t want a revolution in this country.”
“But what more do you want? You got the White House, you got the House, you got the Senate.”
“We do for now. And then we have angry snowflakes, and then we’ve got a Democratic establishment. I say the press in this country is out to destroy this president.”
Shortly after, Koppel calmly tells Sean Hannity that his brand of partisan news is harming the country because he has “attracted people who are determined that ideology is more important than facts.” Watch an incredulous Sean Hannity’s reaction:
In true Hannity style, he followed with interview with a temper tantrum on Twitter:
And hilariously enough, the man who spent a full year calling for Hillary Clinton to be locked up loudly wailed that liberals wanted to see him in prison. Pot, meet kettle:
For always railing against “angry, special snowflakes,” it sure doesn’t take much to trigger tough guy Sean Hannity. And while we are on the subject of Hannity, here he is in October, when he must’ve believed Hillary Clinton was a lock for the White House, saying that a president under investigation by the FBI would “put this country in a major constitutional crisis”:
Now imagine if President Hillary Clinton were being investigated by the FBI for colluding with a foreign enemy state. What do you think Sean Hannity would be saying about that now?
