Sean Hannity
Whether you know him as Derek Smalls or Principal Seymour Skinner, Harry Shearer is a hero - and he proved it again last week by exposing loudmouth Fox News hack Sean Hannity. On his radio show, Shearer played an off-air Hannity & Colmes audiotape from the midst of the Terri Schiavo case, where Hannity can be heard giving two of Schiavo's former nurses some helpful tips on how to answer Alan Colmes' questions...
Hannity: Just say, "I'm here to tell what I saw" ... No matter what the question, "I'm here to tell you what I saw. I'm here to tell you what I saw." ... Say, "I'm not going to be distracted by silliness." How's that? Does that help you? Look into that camera. Look at me when I'm talking.
Later, on air...
Nurse Iyer: I don't have any opinions or judgments. I was there.
After the segment, off-air...
Hannity: We got the points out. It's hard, this isn't easy. But you did great, both of you. Thank you, guys. Those nurses are powerful, aren't they?
Good Lord, Fox News is shit.

7. Sean Hannity
Of course, it's always us liberals who are uncivil and mean - the radical right are consistently polite (pay no attention to the death threats). Take Sean Hannity, for example, who, while sitting in front of a crowd of protesters down in Florida last week, interviewed Congressman Jim Moran via satellite. The News Hounds reported that "Hannity was so intent on controlling his message, that he cut off Alan [Colmes] at the start of the show and took his turn for himself interviewing Terri Schiavo's parents, Robert and Mary Schindler ... Pat Robertson joined Hannity's chorus claiming, 'this judge is brutal. We have to do something with this out of control judiciary.'" (Hey, there are those GOP talking points again!) According to News Hounds, "Moran tried to explain that he cared about the thousands of people who have been abandoned because of Medicare cuts." Of course, Hannity wasn't having any of that - but it was his off-mic comments which were the most interesting. Not knowing he was being recorded, Hannity called Moran an "asshole" and said, "I hate these people." So much for his constant complaints about the lack of civility coming from the left. Check out his mumbling rant here (courtesy of Oliver Willis).

Uhhh yeah ... I guess so. But what does that have anything to do with the topic?
