Yo Sean! Rachel Maddow is MORE the Journalist you will ever be! I doubt that this Stanford A student, Rhodes Scholar, and a PhD. holder in Political Science, and NYT Bestselling Author is paying much attention to your childish jealousy of her. Her ability to tell the truth about your so-called network has your undies in a bunch.Source: Huff Post
Fox News Host, Sean Hannity on Tuesday called MSNBC host Rachel Maddow a make-believe journalist, conspiracy theorist and a tinfoil hat-wearing peddler of lies. (Watch the videos below.)
Hannitys hatchet job on Maddow took up a good portion of a long diatribe against mainstream media ― but his ire was clearly sparked by Maddows explanation for MSNBC not airing Donald Trumps victory speech live at the Iowa caucus on Monday.

She talks to us in a professorial kind of way that teaches us something. She is NOT a bomb thrower. She has a way about her that endears one to her. She has a magic all her own.

(28,705 posts)they're afraid people are beginning to listen to her, and reading her work. It's not just Rachel they fear, but other sane people, as well.
Why all of a sudden did Hannity decide to go after Rachel? Because the GOP are faltering. They can't blame themselves because they have nothing to offer except for lies and made up stories. So they go after the truth-tellers.
What do they do? Target and demonize Rachel,
then they'll go on to other sane people.
I wish each and every one of them choked on their words.

(1,416 posts)One of the female characters torments Lloyd Heinreid by casually mentioning Randall Flagg's name which brings out all of Lloyd's insecurities, effectively making him impotent.
It isn't a generous thought, but I imagine hearing Rachel Maddow's name must have a similar effect on Mr. Hannity.
