Nobody really cares what Sean has to say anymore. Haven’t seen a tidbit from him for a very long time on Mediaite. He’s just a snobby guy with a pen behind his ear, likes who wave his hands and somehow just happens to follow O’Reilly. Even after dumping Colmes he couldn’t do any better.

By the way, I love how on the radio he tonally tries to sound like Rush Limbaugh. First time I heard him I thought it was Limbaugh with chafed underwear.

Hannity feeling a little irrelevant these days?

O’Hannity is a petty person. No surprise here ….

Hey, Obama will take “irrelevant” at this point, for all the damage he’s already inflicted on the Democratic Party – and that’s nothing compared to what’s on the horizon come November!!!

Hannity is very good friends with and has some loyalty to Mark Levin. Levin HATES Beck, and yes, it’s professional jealousy. You’ll rarely hear Hannity saying anything about Beck, and I suspect that’s the crux of it.

This is nothing new, I don’t think Hannity has EVER mentioned Beck. I like him, but he does seem threatened by him. Can really blame him though? Beck is the standard now and except for Rush, no one rivals him. The right has some that come close, but the left has NO ONE!!! Oh wait, you have Ed “crazy man” Schultz!

Levin and Hannity strike me as “establishment” types that would be more than happy to see people like Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin go away. That probably isn’t fair, but that is the “more of the same” category I put them in to. I just don’t find that style of politics interesting anymore. The bickering talking points is a waste of our time.

“But Sean Hannity didn’t mention it.”

Sean never mentions anyone except Greta van Susteren. Anyway, I didn’t notice. I was too busy listening to the future president of the United States, Sarah Palin.

Hannity draws good crowds but Becks made them look small. Hannity can draw more people than any liberal in the country.
He could be mad at Fox for pulling him off the Tea Party event.

Fox went out of their way not to cover Beck’s event too much on Sat. The commentators on the Wallace Sunday show ignored it as did the Monday night news show commentary section. I found that strange.

It doesn’t matter, the point is that all of Fox is KILLING the left. I love it.

Well Hannity never mentions O’Reilly on his show ever. And Rush and Hannity never mention Beck. I wouldnt say threatened. I would just say weary and they wish he wouldnt exist. i.e. professional jealousy. But thats how Sean is and what he based is career around. He tags along follows along right behind Limbaugh on his radio show, netting his listeners. He tags along and follows O’Reilly on TV, netting his viewers, and that was back when it wasnt just him, he had Colmes. And now he has his own show, smh.

You’re mistaken about Limbaugh. Go to his site and search “Beck” and all kinds of stuff will come up. I like this one:

No. In 1988, I’m the only national conservative voice. Now look at conservative media. Look what I have spawned. Glenn Beck to me is, “Right on, daddy-O!” Glenn Beck is the result of my success.

He’s got a point.

“It couldn’t be some professional jealousy, right?”

It could be … but if you toss in a bucket full of Competition then I believe you found the right formula.

I like FOX news, but have always thought that Hannity is one lucky guy who was at the right place at the right time. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer, his schtick is to memorize a list of talking points and repeat and repeat and repeat them timelessly. Sadly, Alan Colmes is a lot smarter, just not “deliverable”.

I wish that FOX would shuffle Great with Hannity. She’s the best they have in the nightly line-up.

I prefer the times where Hannity was on with Colmes. You got lively debate and healthy exchange of ideas even if I did not agree with Colmes most of the time. I think that Fox made a mistake by only going with Hannity and no counterpoint. Too often it sounds like MSNBC which I loath because it is so predictable and one-sided.

You know, I don’t get this. Glenn is way more serious than he used to be. More serious than I’d like him to be. I wish he could lighten up and entertain and enlighten us, but I also think what he is doing now is helping.

Levin didn’t mention RH, but he did talk about rallying. http://www.therightscoop.com/mark-levin-we-cant-just-rally-we-must-be-political-activists-to-save-our-country

Well, Greta would be the more obvious choice, but Shep already has two shows, both of which are not in the top 5, if I’m not mistaken. Shep should lose his 7 PM slot for Beck. Beck and O’Reilly right after the other would probably be a big ratings boost for both, but O’Reilly doesn’t want that to happen for a few months. He’s like two months away from 10 years at #1.

Greta, sorry

Beck does the serious and the non-serious stuff. His Friday programs are all serious shit. Brings in historians to talk about a general topic or person in a way most of us products of the public school system haven’t heard about.

I definitely didn’t know that stuff about Coolidge.

He has the non-serious stuff in the second half of his Monday through Thursday shows. Stuff like going after his critics in a way that is always enjoyable, in stark contrast to the childish, ignorant, and arrogant way Olbermann goes after his competition.

Both Hannity and Colmes since then have showed just how absolutely to the fringe both of them are since they parted ways. Hannity has full blown Obama Derangement Syndrome. Colmes, after that interview by Laura Ingraham last week, has proven himself to be such a crazy liberal, making excuses for the most insane things people on his side of an issue say.

No, no, I really can appreciate what he’s doing and what I learn from it, I just wish he’d do more stuff like this.:

Hannity doesn’t want to “literally” “excoriate” him with “great specificity”.

I will, once the new (and final) season begins. It’s a fun show.
What’s the matter, dummy, are the plot lines too complicated for your tiny little mind?

Sour Grapes Anyone? The headline below on Olbermann’s mocking of Beck should be the title of this post. Oh, and at betweed 87,000 to 96,000 this snoozer of a rally couldn’t come close to Dr. King’s rally or the Inauguration of President Obama. Most of these bible thumping, teabaggers looked bored from what I saw on the local news. Not enough Obama bashing to satisfy these loons.

Hannity may be fearful that he will lose his time slot to Beck. That would probably be a smart move by Fox. But, honestly, if Roger Ailes would move Greg Gutfeld to prime time he would hit it out of the park.

It’s Hannity’s show, he can do whatever the hell he wants. Hannity’s show is about politics and Beck’s rally was completely apolitical as promised, so why would Hannity want to give it top billing, or even cover it at all?

Damn straight. Put Red Eye up against the Jon Stewart/Stephen Colbert Happy Hour and see which gets better ratings. Stewart and Colbert regularly lose to reruns of cartoons on Adult Swim, I can only imagine how much Red Eye would dwarf their ratings.

They’re unlikely to put it at 11 PM, since O’Reilly’s repeat is the 4th highest rated show on FNC. I’d put it at 12 midnight personally.

Hannity is Catholic, and Glenn is Mormon. Jeolousy? Big time.

I was wondering if this was going to be noticed by anyone , Glenn has bashed republicans quite frequently in the past  , and that has bothered hardcore conservatives like Hannity , and Levin. Glenn tells his viewers republicans and dems are equally to blame , with which Hannity disagrees and thinks hurts R’s election chances .Although I tend to agree with Hannity’s ideology more , I think he has let his ego get the best of 
him and sadly might lose viewers .      

Yes. Glenn Beck is the new savior of the “right” and anyone who does not worship him must be disavowed. Funny how you guys will even turn on your own.

Rumor has it that hannity threatened ailes and fox to either sue or quit if fox covered beckapalooza cause they made hannity come back from ohio a few months ago when he was supposed to his show live from some bagger rally and ailes said no , told hannity to get on aplane and get back to NY and people even paid extra for the bagger tickets to sit in front so they could be on hannitys show and btw you know hannity isn’t the only one at the fox that can’t stand beck.

As an early Hannity & Colmes viewer (Hannity being the one I agreed with way more times than not) I can say that Sean has lost some respect with his audience over the past few years. ESPECIALLY since Beck came on the scene at Fox. Sean might think that his silent dissing of Mr. Beck goes unnoticed ….but we notice. ..And moreover.. we don’t get it or like it. ….Genuine honest differences are one thing…But it appears that Glenn Beck takes the high road and has mentioned Sean more than a time or two in a positive light while Sean comes across as petty and juvenile. The SILENT TREATMENT?.. Really, Sean?……….so First Grade.

It’s not ‘turning on your own’ when you see one of ‘your own’ doing something that isn’t right or doesn’t make sense. ..That just may be a key difference in liberals and conservatives…… Liberals will defend ‘their own’ even when ‘their own’ are numbskull dirtbags. ..Conservatives (at least this conservative) will call out ‘their own’ when they see them do something that is just wrong. Sean’s little tantrums are just wrong.

You are foolish if you think there is not significant annimosity between Catholics and Mormons. Glenn has become the new preacher man now. Problem is, he is Mormon and their belief system is much different than Catholics, who have been despised over the years by Mormons. Mormons have a different view of the trinity, the hereafter, and the last days.

That’s pretty funny. “The headline on Olbermann’s mocking of Beck should be the title of this post.” Olby couldn’t even headline a bake sale for the local PTA and draw more than 30 people. Your attendance number is the CBS News number, the same folks that say Obama still has a 90% approval rating. Presidential Inaugurations always draw huge crowds. Watch the one in 2 years, 4 months, and 20 days when the new guy is sworn in. There’ll be a lot of people at that one too.

I’ve never seen any of that. I’ve known many Mormons and Catholics, and have never seen any bigotry going back and forth — certainly nothing compared to the kind of comments you routinely put up here taunting and ridiculing people of faith. Uh, except for Muslims, whom you defend ardently.

You are not talking bigotry here, felix, you are talking historical animosity, mostly scriptural in nature. The Mormons see the last days unfolding in America with the whole system melting down, Catholics do not. At least not as a matter of theology. Glenn is pessimistic about the future, imploring people to gather together at the church, like in War of the Worlds. Glenn has built himself a monster bunker and he intends to survive the last days, seeds and all. If I were Hannity, I would not want to encourage Glenn’s preaching which must be out and out offensive to Hannity. Catholics have a healthier outlook on the future than Mormons since they do not believe that American culture must melt down as a preamble for Jesus floating down to gather the faithful Mormons to the promised land of the saints.

May I point out the obvious to you, Val. You are obsessed with the “last times” ideas of various religions. But I have run into many crazy leftists with visions of end times replete with nuclear holocausts, global temperatures out of control, ecological armageddon, etc. etc. — which definitely impact their political agenda. The progressive atheists are more focused on end times than any religious group I have encountered, and constantly draw on these wild visions in shaping policy. So I eagerly await your denunciation of them.

Hannity is extremely self-absorbed. He is often guilty of pettiness, and making much out of nothing. He has been downgraded to #3 on Fox with Glen Beck taking the #2 spot in a very short period.

We are talking about Glenn, his penchant for predicting doom and gloom, in tears no less, and I am asking if he believes in doom and gloom because that is what his religion teaches.

You win the plexiglas bellybutton award.

This entire thread proves how well Medialite can stir up the libs and give them hope with just a smidgen of “red meat.”

That said, I think Mr. Hannity is too self-absorbed, too petty, and his tactics in treating liberals who call his radio program do nothing to lead them into the light of truth; they only alienate them further.

I have lost a lot of respect for Sean Hannity and I really thought he was a bigger man than he is turning out to be. I have never heard him even mention Glenn Beck. He must be very insecure and very jealous of Glenn. Between the two shows, I never miss Glenn Beck but will watch Hannity if nothing else is on. Glenn Beck is the Rock Star of Fox News! Love him.

Beck considers Hannity a competitor, and it’s is likely mutual.

Gee, if Hannity had skepticism of Beck as many adults do, he could have nailed Beck for telling lies while telling his minions to “tell the truth.” Oh yeah, I nailed him. Proving Beck lies is as easy as taking candy from a child. When it happens during a restoring “honor” speech, it’s nearly as gratifying as good sex.

FOX NEWS theme is ‘FAIR & BALANCED’—-You will ALMOST always find SOMEONE on there who avoids or does not agree with someone or some thing.

AZBARB; If I can ever get the time, I’m going to do stopwatch analysis of Fox and CNN last Sat. 10-1:00 to see which was fair and balanced.

Hannity is more serious about his hate, lie and spin. He may think Beck is too big a clown, but Hannity has enough hate for both !

Fox news fair and balanced! They are the most bias, spin filled, hatefest on the air to date! Hannity’s Great American Panel is always, always two right wing nuts and maybe one normal person. Thats balanced! One of the right wing nuts is often a hillbilly singer promoting Hannitys hate tours, a coach, or a wacko actor, none of which has a clue about anything that effects average people. The other Fox news racist book burners, have right wing sheep on 90% of the time. That all, bring on the hate!
