So I gave myself royal heartburn last night watching Hannity in that
Edited on Mon Feb-06-06 09:17 AM by GreenPartyVoter
video clip of him sandbagging Ted Rall. The jerk did not shut up once; just talked over Ted in a constant stream of vitriol and pompous self-righteousness.

So I gotta ask you, have we got anybody who could out-talk-over Hannity? Randi and Mike maybe?? I would pay to see Hannity get his, I really would.

Video clip: http://movies.crooksandliars.com/Hannity-Colmes-Rall.mov

Warning: have some Tums handy

1. I thought Ted Rall did a good job.
Probably should have called Hannity a jingoist, since that's what FoxNews is all about.

2. Ted did a great job, but I worry that the regular FOX viewers tuned him
out in order to hear what Hannity was saying.

3. Hannity was not saying anything he doesn't always say.
In other words, it's repetitious and that alone will tune viewers out. If anything, Rall's reaction gave Hannity the sparks he needed to keep the audience entertained.

It is a necessary evil. I think it's important to stand up to them, but attacking them on other shows, like Olberman does to O'Reilly, is important too because they're not fighting on their own turf.

4. I love Keith. I really think he needs to have a Sunday evening show on NBC

5. I agree. He did a great job!
Only a brain-dead fox-viewer couldn't see thru Hannity in that segment.

6. That would have 99% of the audience then. *lol*
