In reply to the discussion: Hannity Stops Interview After A Brutal Ass Kicking By Keith Ellison [View all]LiberalLovinLug
(14,173 posts)38. I think every Democrat guest should adopt this tactic
Don't be afraid of the bullies at Fox News. Don't play by the traditional polite rules of news interviews. Why? Because they don't....ever. I like how Hannity (and he's not the only one on that farce of a network) always pre-couches a question with a lie, then "..and thats a fact" before quickly asking his main question. I applaud that Ellison refused to let him get away with that.
If those hacks at Fox want to cut off and bully their guests, then the guests should do the same. What would happen is that viewers would get turned off because you wouldn't hear either one. Of course that would only work for the 5% of Democratic guests they have on.
