Its not really relevant politically, unless cohen went 'ray donavan' on some people for hannity, which i doubt.

It's hilarious more than anything else, hannity isnt biased at all when it comes to those theories he pitches every night

Perhaps an agreement to talk trash about Stormy and MacDougal on air?

I have no clue if that would amount to anything though

I wonder if the execs at Fox News are aware of a relationship between Cohen and Hannity? Cohen is a frequent subject on Hannity's shows and has appeared on Hannity.

Cohen's attorney was ordered to divulge that Hannity was the third client. I don't see how naming Hannity furthers the case one way or another. But remember this; the attorney client privilege is there for the client. If the client says to his attorney I don't want you to publicly affirm that I am your client, then the attorney has two choices, either respect that request or tell him to get a new lawyer.

I'm not really sure that Hannity was up to any shennanigans with another woman. From what I have been told by some people in the news business, Hannity is pretty much a homebody outside of his time at his Fox show.

"When Hannity was identified as Cohen's third client, there were gasps and laughter in the courtroom"

Does A-C privilege cover disclosure of a name? Twitter seems to think it doesn't.

Hannity does have a relatively squeaky clean reputation. But who knows?

There was this accusation by a blogger last year

It seemed to disappear relatively quickly and was wildly dismissed. I am sure an enterprising reporter will ask!

It would seem they are not, since they are the only network that doesn't have the info on their front page.

Hannity is live right now... and he is definitely off his game.



His wife is probably blowing up his phone.... he's trying to text and talk.

I wonder if he will do a show tonight, or call in sick. His radio show is on right now. I am not listening but I am sure twitter will transcript his comments on the topic.

I find it interesting that Cohen being your attorney means you are immediately guilty of a crime of moral turpitude.

Not even clients of Johnnie Cochran or Mark Geragos got that kind of presumed guilt.

Any real news network would pull his show immediately for not disclosing this conflict of interest before he reported on the Cohen raid, but lucky for him, he's on Fox!

Hannity saying he just used Cohen as a sound board for legal advice. Never got an invoice from him (doesn't say he didn't just pay him in cash though.)

Since (according to Sean) Cohen was basically just a legal friend of Hannity, why would Cohen make a bogus claim about client/attorney privilege? Why would Cohen call Hannity a client if he wasn't?

Someone's lying.......

2/3 of Cohen's clients in 2017 have used his services for NDA regarding sex. I think its reasonable to ask if the other third did the same.

My guess is that its not Cohen's attorney. Just a guess though.

Yeah, this is meaningless. He could have just paid him without an invoice.

Hannity says he never paid Cohen a dime, but he still wants to claim AC privilege

That makes it even more suspicious.

You don't have to receive a dollar to have AC privilege. The relationship can be established without compensation.
