Who Listens to Sean Hannity?

[the ringo kid]

If people that died after world war two maybe up to 1960, came back to life and seen whats going on politicaly, they wouldnt belive it. Its been a process since then that day by day people dont reconise whats happening and take for granite. I suppose all world war two vets would holler, this is what we fought and died against for! Someone has to holler this!

We are hollering--just not yet loud enough.

 

[johngalt]

I've tried listening to him, but he is way over dramatic about most topics. Every position taken by a democrat is a disaster of epic proportions.

He is definitely conservative, not libertarian. He is fully in favor of big government as long as the 'correct' group is under the boot heel.

I equate anything that is broadcast on the FOX network to pure fiction and innuendo as is the case with CNN,ABC,NBC,CBS,CNBC,BBC,The Blaze,Huffington Post,et al........I prefer the Comedy Network as it generally has more respect for the facts and believability when reporting current news and affairs.

Comedy central for news......hmmmm...ok. I depend on four maybe five internet sources for my news, fox, cnn, sky news, huffpo, and a local station here depending on my mood. Oh yeah, the Blaze too so I guess that's six.....btw I'm not picking on your choices, but I would recommend more than one choice. That way you can make your mind up for yourself and not just base your information on one groups opinion

Of all the talking dullards on TV , Hannity is the only one who I can actually watch and listen to , and agree with.

Kinda wish he and Piers Morgan would square off with pistols at 10 paces!

Oh I have made my choices....Reuters,The Associated press,Global Post, Wall Street Journal,to name just a few.
My post was meant as tongue in cheek as the popular news sources available{which I do scan to gain a perspective of the mass media and increasingly for laughs} cater to a largely uninformed,rigid and myopic pool of viewers IMHO.

"Whether you're up late, or just starting your day" try "Red Eye Radio" with Eric Harley and Gary McNmara. They are a late night radio show, but offer free podcasts. Hands down the best conservatives out there. In my opinion anyway...

 

[radar1972]

Hannity is very conservative and sincere. I watch his show sometimes, but have to take it in small doses. I can't exist on a full diet of him or Rush or any of the others.

 

[V996]

Working on the road and stuck in hotels through the week, I listen to/watch them all. Patriot pretty much every day, Church, Beck, Wilkow, Hannity, Levin, Webb, Cam. Still watch Fox news but not as much as I used to. Catch Rush on occasion. Bauer and Rose are good on Sundays and are a little more religious than some of the others.
Here's my take: all of them will have their faithful listeners, but the programming is designed to grab a diverse audience depending on the delivery and the audience member's political "age". When I first got into politics, I was PISSED, and Savage was the man! Now, not so much. Levin and Wilkow are too angry for me, Hannity wines a bit too much and I don't like the "fair and balanced" anymore. I know exactly what Juan Williams is going to say. I'll find Williams' show if I want to hear him.
I like Beck for the levity, and for History, it's hard to beat Mike Church, although he irritates me sometimes.
I do believe it's a very similar message, the difference in delivery is what keeps your ear.

 

[the ringo kid]

I kinda miss Neel Boorts.

 

[G-Mac]

How about michael savage?

I like Savage because he doesn't limit his talk to politics. He might talk about food, nutrition, boating, cars, you never know. And he's very smart. Very deep thinker. I used to listen to Hannity, but he bores me now. Same old, same old.

 

[vigil617]

Wouldn't walk across the street to listen to him if they were giving away $50 bills and boxes of 9mm ammo.

 

[Mickey D]

Wow, you never heard of Hannity? You need to come up for air!

 

[Texas Star]

Heard of him; just never HEARD him.

I seem not to get Fox TV, just their local affliate.

 

[Hodgin]

Several years ago I listen to Rush, Sean, G. Gordon, and O'Reilly. It got old and I'd rather cut the radio or tv off than to listen to them now. I try to minimize my exposure to politics these days. Tired of all this "us versus them" mentality on both sides. It just ain't like that.

 

[george minze]

Hannity has his own style. I get tired of his rants BUT I believe what he is saying...As many have said he somewhat is preching to the choir. Sad thing is the folks that should be listening arn't. The big government folks don't want to hear anything that might just open their eyes on some things...Only when the IRS scandel broke that got their attention along with conservatives...Nobody wants that much snooping by any government....A step to far, hits home way to close. Sadly we are losing the pr battle...To many have a stake in the nanny state...I heard that the percent of full time workers have dropped to just under 50 percent...Don't sound possible does it? I think it is scary, not just a party thing. I think the workers are paying for some non-workers that should be working.....Just my opinion, but 50 percent of the people in this country can't support 100 percent. Plus keep a well trained military and all the government functions. I'm not sure our founding fathers wanted to be taxed into oblivion as could easily happen if we are not careful........All the money spent and the American lives lost in some of our overseas adventures have made us real popular.......Not so.....We seem to forget history don't we..Veitnam mean anything.......Afganistan really love us don't they??? Sorry for the rant but at 74 I have seen quite a bit and it ain't very pretty..............Been there and done that!!

I lived with hannity from a boy up, he was my dad. I remember our preacher once saying my dad was the worlds biggest conservative. Think pa might have put the brakes on some of his expanding ideas.
I remember back when john kennedy ran for president. He was at dad`s factory gate campaigning. He held out his hand, dad ignored it and told him he was "a rich playboy". Dad was on top of things political. Some things he told me I had never heard of again until many years later. Stuff like rockefeller selling oil durring the war to germany etc.
Yeah, it gets boreing and redunant a lot listening to hannity and some others but its the best and maybe only way to stay on top of the news the left doesnt want you to hear. I liken it to hearing preaching. Especialy as a boy I practicly lived in church (because of my folks) that I belive I could preach the same sermons I heard. Then when I left home I seldom went to church. I drifted. I still knew and belived the way I was raised but without the constant preaching I soon got in trouble.
Listening to conservative talk programs is like that. If you wont listen soon with no one pointing out the news behind the news, it lets the opposition get away with their agendas, bad decisions and outright lies.
I bet that if the left could eliminate two people, hannity and rush would be the first two to go. That makes them my heros.

 

[bgrafsr]

Sorry, I think talk radio of every stripe and kind is an abomination. Political "preaching to the choir" or sports nuts raving endlessly about the hot high school recruiting prospects or what coach or manager needs to be horsewhipped--I won't listen to any of it. I'll read or watch documentary (not commentary) TV or listen to most any kind of good music or write ridiculous stuff.

It's all a waste of my diminishing time. At my age I have better things to do, like hang out here.

Yep, just another talking head as fas as I'm concerned. Would rather watch the grass grow.

 

[george minze]

It is not the messenger, it's the message .......Grass will grow but not as fast as the national debt....

 

[Foodfuzz]

Hannity is pretty good. He gets repetitive sometimes but, is so much better without Alan Colmes crying liberal whine. Say, what ever happened to him? Just see him occasionally on O'Reiley with his sister-in-law Monica Crowly. Rush is opinionated and bombastic and usually right. Mark Levin is great and I like Glen Beck too although he does become too preachy at times. Don't want to forget Andrew Wilkow either. He's a good guy. When you need a shot of conservatism "Who Ya Gonna Call ?"

 

[vigil617]

It is not the messenger, it's the message .......Grass will grow but not as fast as the national debt....

I vote for the grass, based on what Hannity is spreading on it.
