Here's Fox News reporting during Shep Smith's program that Michael Cohen's 3rd client was their own Sean Hannity. #delicious pic.twitter.com/tk6eoDHqvy

As Hannity was attacking the raid on Cohen's office last week, he had an obligation to disclose his own vested interest — that he, along with Trump, was one of Cohen's clients. (One of his three clients, to be precise.) https://t.co/6CSSMXzZkO https://t.co/ymY5pE9nip

Sean Hannity is a wealthy man who can afford any attorney he wants. Michael Cohen is a terrible attorney, because he’s really a fixer instead. Hannity knew that. No way in hell was Hannity using Cohen for legitimate legal advice. Whatever it was about, it’s going to be ugly 😁

Fox has serious questions to answer about why Hannity was allowed to rant on the Cohen raid without disclosing this. Did they not know?https://t.co/Ku3H3hdjGx

.@brianstelter: “Sean Hannity operates at Fox News with few rules. He seemingly says and does whatever he wants, even when it embarrasses his own colleagues.”https://t.co/k1bXUEyobA

The highest levels of GOP leadership lined up behind the senate campaign of a bigoted theocrat, who was accused of beind a child molester. And no one's paid any reputational price for it.

This Sean Hannity story is really only the second most humiliating of the day for Fox News.
Number one is the NY Times winning a Pulitzer in part for piercing the network's web of lies and exposing Bill O'Reilly, leading to his termination. https://t.co/IoXVmg5bEb

We are leaving Single Market – but have no new regulatory agencies.
We are leaving Customs Union – but have no customs infrastructure and no new trade deals.
We are "taking back control" of borders – but "deport in error".
We are to Brexit – but do not know what we are doing.

DUP Special Adviser Dr Andrew Crawford's evidence to the RHI Inquiry today is really extraordinary. https://t.co/DnaxmmOjCi

Andrew Crawford's evidence about never, in a decade at the heart of Stormont, seeing minutes of a meeting is staggering. Even at the lowest tier of government – councils (where Foster started) – minutes of the last meeting are the first (and often contested) item of business.
