And he could have sucked all the air out of all of this if he'd been up front when he had these people on his show.

Then there would have no there "there".

Still none of your business...and a lot of people here are playing right into the hands of those who leaked all this info..

He is a private citizen and is under no obligation to tell you or me about his investments.

He's a public figure who interviews the very people he's doing business with. 

He's dancing on the line of ethical journalism.

He's not a journalist. He is an opinion commentator......but don't let your Trump rage get in the way of facts.

Well, he vacillates between being a journalist and not - similar to whether he’s a Cohen client or not.

Hannity has shifted in recent years on that point. “I never claimed to be a journalist,” Hannity told The New York Times in 2016 when asked about his informal advising of then-candidate Trump. The next year, Hannity referred to himself in a Times magazine profile as an “opinion journalist” or “advocacy journalist.” He said last month that his show “breaks news daily” in response to colleague Shep Smith characterizing Fox News’ prime-time lineup as entertainment.

Exactly.  Depending on what day it is he's either tweeting about how he reports real news...or that he's not a journalist he's a "talk host".

What..really?...Sean had no obligation to divulge all his financial interests and investments..

Exactly.  Sean is not an elected official or a politician.  He is under no obligation for such ""transparency"" about his personal investments.

This BS reeks of the same inane crap thrown at Ted Cruz during the primary.... that he was somehow dishonest for having a wife that works at (Gasp!!!)...Goldman Sachs.

So you took that to mean that Hannity is a straight news source. Excellent. I can see now why you are now going to stop listening to him today. Guess you will have to watch Rachael Maddow for your news from now on. I don't think she invests in rentals.

What the hell does his personal real estate investments have to do with journalism???  Methinks you are over-reaching here due to your distaste for Hannity.  Let it go.

Wanna guess who said Cruz was owned by Goldman?  Hint - the same guy who subsequently hired three former Goldman guys - Bannon, Cohn, and Mnuchin.

Yeah... but that same guy was only responding to the tabloid BS thrown out by the leftist asses that were trashing Cruz.  The same leftist asses that are now trashing Hannity.  Don't try to turn this thread into a Bash 'that same guy' thread...lol.

He is a public figure.

There are ethics codes in journalism that he has danced right up to the line of if not stepped over them.

It matters.

So.... let me get this straight.  In you view...Sean has stepped over the ethics line by not blasting his personal real estate transactions (and a few off the cuff/record questions he may have asked his friend Cohen) all over the airways... for the sake of ""transparency""???  AS IF... even IF he had done so, he would not still be under assault and attack from the idiot left... and all others that choose to bash him?

Nope.

You're wrong on this one, hon.  Sorry.

Right is right and truth is truth.  You're pushing some BS here.

I used to listen to talk radio quite a bit while on the road between accounts.  At some point in the mid 2000s, it became one long show from 9AM-6PM.  They cover the same subjects, say the same things, and had similar sycophant callers.  Hell, even the advertisers are the same.  I’d rather listen to a Soviet era numbers station.  It’s less monotonous. 

I’ve watched that Maddow dude exactly twice in my life and both times were very entertaining.  The first time, I was flipping through the election coverage throughout election night, 2016.  The second time, she was waving around an old Trump tax return.

Let's run down where this could be a problem (so far not accused.)

1. Did he use his connections with Carson or anyone in the government to curry special favors?
2. Did he use the shell company to dump off debt or hide sources of income that would not normally be allowed in these transactions?
3. Did any of these transactions provide any direct financial benefit to someone in the government- skirting disclosure rules?
4. Was any of this used to funnel money to candidates (or from candidates) during an election cycle?
5. Did he use connections and/or influence from players in the government to block out competitors to these properties?
6. Did he use government influence to get properties condemned or seized through eminent domain so he could buy them for personal or business gain.


So far, none of these have been charged. I'm sure we can think of more, but that's how this could have crossed the line.

But for now, this is just a normal, mundane financial transaction that happen every day.

Don't forget number 5. Sean had sexual relations with Carson for financial favors. I don't know about anyone else, but that what I think happened.

How dare you.  The squeegee kids of Baltimore are young entrepreneurs and have been for decades.  Just ask Wiley A. Hall III.


But then, in January 1985, then-City Council President Clarence H. Du Burns introduced a bill, at the request of the police commissioner, that would outlaw squeegee kids. Police said the practice was unsafe and that many motorists had complained about them. The bill would give officers authority to arrest repeat offenders.

I tried to explain in a column back then that this was a very sad idea, that there were kinder, gentler ways of ensuring the kids' safety.

I pointed out, for instance, that each police district had a youth service officer and that the department could have asked the officers to take the squeegee kids in hand and show them safer outlets for their entrepreneurial spirit, chores for the elderly or something.

Trump picked right up on the refrain soon after.

"I know the guys at Goldman Sachs. They have total, total control over him. Just like they have total control over Hillary Clinton," Trump said of Cruz, whom the real estate mogul also called a "total fraud" and "the biggest liar I've ever seen."
