Sean Hannity defends his attacks on CNN after mail bombing suspect identified

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Fox News host Sean Hannity on Friday defended his consistent bashing of CNN after law enforcement officials identified a suspect who allegedly sent explosive devices to prominent Democratic figures and the news network's New York office.

"I deplore all violence of any kind," Hannity tweeted. "Legitimate & fair criticism of media bias & merely calling-out CNN’s obvious political agenda that spends almost all day demonizing a President they hate is not only warranted but a healthy exercise of freedom of speech."

Hannity's tweet linked to an essay he posted on his website in which he decried the press's response to the series of mail bombs and suspicious packages sent to figures such as former President Obama and Bill and Hillary Clinton.

CNN received a suspicious package at its New York office on Wednesday.

Hannity, a vocal supporter of Trump's, accused the "Destroy-Trump media" of ignoring the "Left’s vile calls for violence" and trying to exploit these actions for its own gain.

More false equivalency bullshit.

1. I keep wishing

That Hannity will be outed by Cohen in his plea deals, and he ends up in court, at some state level so trump can't pardon him. That might wipe that smirk off of his face!

2. Hannity and Trump and republicans follow the Nazi maxim.

Never, Never admit to being wrong. Turn your evil to reflect on your opponents and kill those opponents if you can.

3. For someone who deplores violence

Hannity sure likes violent imagery, war, and physical confrontations (as long as it's someone else getting punched or tortured).
