    In reply to Sean Hannity Promises to Respond to Comedy Show That Fact-Checked Him
    Did anyone watch the Michael Moore interview with Hannity? He pulled the same bullshit. They were talking about health care (even tho the topic was ostensibly his Capitalism movie) and how it was better, or more accessible in Cuba. Sean ran some footage of what looked like an abandoned building (ie: there were no patients/doctors walking around, just dirty empty rooms) and tried to pass it off as a hospital. Moore just started cracking up and calling him out. Hannity promptly changed the subject.

    here's some video

    My wonderful but politically misguided father got me a subscription to the Times a couple of years ago, and I always enjoyed reading the batshit insane headlines before chucking it into the trash. But! You also get the FREE perk of being put on every god damn freeper mailing list in existence, and my neighbors probably think I'm some sort of ex-pat militia member at this point. Damn you, Moon! #washingtontimes

    Are we still operating under the assumption that the Washington Post is the liberal opposition to the Times? The WaPo (or maybe just the editorial page) seems like it's positioning itself to fill the neo-con void and I'm more than prepared to completely ignore their bullshit as well. The Weekend is still pretty legit but otherwise, the cord is nearly cut. #washingtontimes

    I was at an event at the Council on Foreign Relations ( John Kerry) and it was opened up to questions. Reporters were sitting in the back. Except one, Barbara Slavin from the Washington Times. She was sitting with that awful Congresswoman Harman. I noticed it because all the other questions came from the back. Even stranger was Congresswoman Harman asking Sen.Kerry a question as well as if she couldn't kick with him on the Hill. It was very odd because she asked her question (really 3) after it was announced that these would be the last questions taken. I put her in my Moonie category that day. #washingtontimes

    I've actually wondered that because there aren't as many people becoming Moonies as there were before, replenishing his coffers, how long the Rev would continue to drain his fortune. #washingtontimes

    With less staffers, perhaps Current TV will have less of a chance of getting it's staff embroiled in international nuclear affairs? #media

    I sense some oncoming righteous indignation.

    His main point will be that it doesn't matter when the footage was from (they labeled all of it "earlier" and it was earlier!), what matters is that 50,000 people turned out and goddammit if Jon Stewart isn't an unAmerican terrorist jew bastard if he questions the will of the people! #seanhannity

    With Drew Schutte, Conde has a smart, web-savvy guy running digital--finally. Let's hope that he, like Hearst, has a war chest. Let's also note that Conde Digital is not at 4TS and that, as surely as the luncheon seating plan, is a measure of status. #media

    He'll just continue to lie. That's all he, and everyone else on Fox News does: lie, lie, lie. And they know they're lying. They all but admit they're lying. Because they learned long ago that if you just continue to lie long enough, it seems close enough to the truth that people just accept the lie as approximately the truth, just with a different bias. It's pretty much the basis for Fox News and the conservative movement as we know it. #seanhannity

    @Mediahohoho: But what will the lie be? I'm totally intrigued. No way he says, "Sorry. That was misleading. My fault. Won't happen again," right? But what can he say? Is he a big enough dick to blame his staff? Well, of course he is, but will he stoop that low? I can't wait. What time is this man-ape on? #seanhannity

    @Richard Petty Bourgeoisie: I think he'll brazen it out by just showing the clips that don't include the 9/12 images. Because his is an audience that will take him at his word when he says Jon Stewart is a liberal and is using his liberal bias to liberal bias me, and that's why liberals are bad and I'm good. And his audience will nod their heads and agree. And the head of everyone with a brain will explode simultaneously. At about 9:12 tonight. #seanhannity

    @Richard Petty Bourgeoisie: It will just be deflection. All he has to do is convince his stupid viewers to believe that there's a liberal witchhunt, and that they're "playing a game of gotcha when they should be addressing the concerns of real Americans that were voiced on that day."

    I'd love for this to harm his career in some way, but it won't. #seanhannity
