It was bad enough that Megyn Kelly gave any air time at all to conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, but now her former colleague is weighing in to side with the Infowars nutbag. Hannity is also a conspiracy theorist, often referring to the ‘Deep State’ which is trying to take down alleged president Donald Trump so it’s no surprise that he’s siding with Jones in yet another Twitter-tantrum.
Parents of the victims of the Sandy Hook massacre took issue with Kelly interviewing Jones and called on NBC to pull the show. Then Jones complained that Kelly misrepresented his views on Sandy Hook. We’re talking about a guy who was forced to apologize to the Washington, D.C. pizzeria Comet Ping Pong and its owner James Alefantis for his site/show’s role in promoting the false “pizzagate” conspiracy theory involving a child sex-abuse ring. That circulated widely during the presidential campaign, with the conspiracy theory claiming that Hillary Clinton runs a child sex ring out off the basement of the pizzeria. By the way, I’ve been to the restaurant and there is no basement.
Jones tweeted, “Infowars recorded the interview as a safeguard whereby, once again, MSM could be exposed as #fakenews.”

Naturally, Hannity felt the need to put himself in the middle of this sh*tshow to say, “Agree or disagree I say @NBCNews RELEASE THE TAPES. Let America decide.”

“What is @CNN afraid of? I have zero criticism of Megyn. Letting America see the entire interview is FAIR. Why does @NBCNews get to decide?” it tweeted.

He even spelled his former colleague’s name wrong.
@infowars vs Megan Kelly. This should be interesting.

Here’s a question Hannity refused to answer.
Does FOX release all of the unedited video of every interview they do?
I dare you to answer this simple question.— Black Cheeseburger (@BlackCheesebur1) June 19, 2017
Ummm….You never edit your prerecorded content, huh?
— Dave (@winnerinsix) June 19, 2017
@seanhannity is officially commenting on @infowars. People this is how far he has gone. Embarrassing

Sean, you’re going to side with Alex Jones over your former colleague Megyn Kelly?

Should the Trump pee tapes be released? Let America decide

You fatuous tank of disgraceful sewer seepage

Hannity does have his usual defenders. By the way, the word he’s looking for is borders.
Close the boarders to CA now before they infest

STFU!
what’s it gonna be

Poor @RealAlexJones sounds like he’s been gargling crack rocks. You smoke ’em, buddy!!!

I totally love how he shows his stupidity in every tweet.
Now if there was a play that killed an Obama look alike every night and people protested, would u call that stupid? This hate is disgusting https://t.co/T0UwRRlrQJ

Hannity is wrong again but at least he’s consistent.
In 2012, Shakespeare in the Park put on Julius Caesar with an Obama-like lead. It’s an anti-assassination play, good friend.

Sean? Sean? Yoo-hoo! You there? Or are you in your safespace where you hide when you say something more idiotic than usual? Sean? Seany?!
— What now?! (@Ab_Synthia) June 19, 2017
To answer that Twitter user’s question, Sean Hannity was never ‘there.’ He dove into the crazy pit a long time ago. Sad!
