I will stay right up front that I don’t like Sean Hannity. Never have, really. That dislike has grown over the years… particularly since he got so solidly on the train with Donald Trump who is also not a conservative. I’ve always thought Sean Hannity was a poser and that proved it.
All that said, this little tidbit [1]coming off the wire earlier this evening cemented something that I’ve been saying for some time now.
Debbie Schlussel, a former Fox News guest, appeared on a local radio show on Friday and recounted an incident where Sean Hannity purportedly asked her to a hotel, and when she rebuffed his advances, she claims, she was ostracized by the network star. The story has since gone viral garnering headlines like “Sean Hannity Accused of Sexually Harassing Fox News Guest” in publications like The Daily Beast and The Huffington Post. In an interview with LawNewz.com on Monday morning, Schlussel is denying that she was ever sexually harassed by Sean Hannity. While Schlussel stands by her description of the incident, Schlussel told us that she doesn’t believe what happened between the two amounted to sexual harassment by any legal definition.
“I would never accuse him of that. Sexual harassment has a special meaning under the law, and I would never accuse him of that,” Schlussel, an attorney herself, said. Schlussel said the interaction happened in the early 2000’s when Hannity was in Detroit taping a show.
As I say, this is for the proof of what I’ve been accusing the left of all along, which is using the charge of sexual harassment to eliminate political enemies. All of which raises questions not only about the charges being levelled against Sean Hannity but against Bill O’Reilly who I also don’t particularly like, Bill Cosby, and so many others.
And by the way I still can’t figure out why anyone takes the Huffington Post seriously about anything.
