Hannity Rages Against ‘America’s Lying Media’ Over Reports That Russian State TV Loves Him
Fox News host Sean Hannity spent his Easter Sunday blasting out tweets at the Daily Beast and other media outlets over reports that Russian state-run media had aired excerpts of his broadcasts last week in which he attacked the Mueller report and “media hysteria” over its findings.
On Sunday, The Daily Beast — which this author contributes too — published a piece reporting that the Russian government-owned Rossiya 1 news channel had reacted to the recent release of the redacted Mueller report by highlighting the response by American conservatives. While Special Counsel Robert Mueller found that Russia was engaged in a campaign to interfere in the 2016 presidential election in order to get Donald Trump elected, he also said that there was no chargeable conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russia (though Trump associates were open to collusion and utilized stolen information by Russia).
After Mediaite picked up the story from the Beast, Hannity took to Twitter to assail both outlets and the American media at large in a tweetstorm that essentially mirrored one of his show’s 20-plus minute monologues.

Maybe the Daily Beast/Mediaite could have included my numerous comments about Russia being a “hostile regime” and Putin a “hostile, bad actor” and how dangerous they are to our security. https://t.co/wGF5qcyWw8— Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) April 21, 2019

More “Fake news” by cherry-picking comments without the proper context.— Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) April 21, 2019
(3/13)They may have also wanted to include that I told people a thousand times Congressman Devin Nunes warned the Obama regime that Russia would try to create 2016 election chaos.His warning was in 2014, and Obama and Co did NOTHING to prevent it. This all happened on his watch.

Also, maybe the Daily Beast should look at itself and the rest of the Fake News industrial complex in America, as they are no better than Russian propaganda outlets—perhaps even worse.— Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) April 21, 2019

Maybe the Daily Beast and the rest of America’s lying media can apologize to the American people for these lies, and just maybe investigate HRC’s rigged investigation, her violations of the espionage act, and her obstruction of justice (bleach bit, deletions, hammers?)— Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) April 21, 2019

Or HRC’s bought and paid for Lying Russian Dossier, used to influence the 2016 election, and the same Russian Dossier full of lies that were presented as the bulk of information to commit a massive Fraud on FISA court judges.— Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) April 21, 2019

Those Warrants denied an American citizen his constitutional rights and gave Obama’s Government and the HRC campaign yet another path to “SPY” on the Trump campaign. (Separate from the Stefan Halper issues).— Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) April 21, 2019
(9/13)Maybe these lazy, overpaid, leftwing media propagandists can examine their false, politically-driven coverage the last 2+ years &examine the permanent damage they’ve done to the country & themselves by enabling an attempt to unseat a duly elected President of the people.

I predict hell will freeze over before there is any honest self reflection by the media mob, and the next chance they have to slander, smear, besmirch, and bludgeon an innocent 16 year old kid in a “MAGA” hat, like Nicholas Sandmann, they will double down on slander.— Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) April 21, 2019

Richard Jewell, Cambridge Police, UVA, Duke Lacrosse, Ferguson, Baltimore, Vetting Obama, reporting Obama’s 8 years of failure, Covington HS kids, Justice Kavanaugh “I believe” VS the VA LT Governor SILENCE.— Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) April 21, 2019
Smollett, HRC’s violation of the espionage act, real obstruction of justice, with a REAL underlying crime &REAL intent, the deep state’s “abuse of power, &corruption”, abuse of America’s powerful tools of intelligence, illegal unmasking of the American ppl & leaking raw intel

He finished his rage-fueled tweetstorm by promoting his upcoming Fox News broadcast, promising there will be a “full response” on Hannity while making sure Twitter users knew what time his show airs.
The only good news in this is the “Fake News” industry. “The Media Mob” is finished. America will never trust these people again, nor should they.
Full response this week on Hannity 9PM EST

Meanwhile, as Hannity wants The Daily Beast and Mediaite – an outlet this author previously worked for — to include his “numerous comments” in which he spoke out against Russia and Vladimir Putin, maybe he’d also like to comment on the multiple times he pushed Julian Assange’s fake conspiracy that murdered DNC staffer Seth Rich was his source for the stolen DNC emails and not Russian hackers? Especially considering that the Mueller report revealed that Assange knowingly fueled that conspiracy as he was communicating with the Russians for the emails.
