I've already posted about the bizarre - and probably not long-lasting - pairing of Howard Kurtz and Fox News. But here's at least one person at Fox who was likely not happy to discover the name of his latest colleague: Sean Hannity. To say he's not a fan would be an understatement.
In this video, which Media Matters caught from not even two months ago, Hannity responded to Kurtz' criticism of Fox by saying, "I don't like him. He's full of crap. He thinks he's a sanctimonious, self-righteous, phony establishment journalist."
Will Hannity now suck up? Shun Kurtz? Pretend nothing happened? Even more to the point, how will Kurtz deal with Hannity, a broadcasting hack if ever there was one.

I hadn’t read the comments before posting my comment below. But, I’ll say this: truman and I were most certainly on the same frequency.

Hannity on Kurtz: “I don’t like him. He’s full of crap. He thinks he’s a sanctimonious, self-righteous, phony establishment journalist.”
You’d think Hannity would be Kurtz’s biggest fan. After all, most of that description fits Hannity very well. Hannity is “full of crap. He’s a sanctimonious, self-righteous, conservative establishment phony journalist.”

Hannocchio the RINO will ignore him the same way he ignores Billy, or he may have Kurtz on his show and bash him publicly, making himself a hero with his low-information audience. Hannocchio’s nitwit producer, The Fin, will make that decision.
The Stop Hannity Express says Hannocchio is the one who is full of crap, and full of himself. He’s been this way since he stepped foot at KCSB in Santa Barbara.
Arrogant, hot head, cocky, angry, dark-haired skinny kid with a uni-brow, nasty attitude and short temper. This smooth talking street hustler wormed his way into the radio station.
There’s more to Hannocchio than he lets on. He’s done things in his life that would shock his audience. He works very hard covering up his dark secrets. His biggest fear is seeing his habits, err… dark secrets become public knowledge, and it will in time through our media partners.
Coming down the pipe:
1. Ruthless Rupy faces another major crisis.
2. Criminal charges pending.
3. A Fox “News” fraud is hit with a major crisis.
NOTE TO HANNITY
You are disgrace to the Black Irish.

When you sign up with Fox, you know in advance what you have to do. I expect Kurtz to be like Juan Williams and the rest of them — subserviant to the right wing masters.
