Hannity dropped the ball tonight. Said he spoke to Seth's family, and will not be discussing anything tonight out of respect for them. Mentioned being attacked by Media Matters, having his job threatened, etc. Said he will "keep doing the job he promised to do."
For what it's worth, he seemed nervous.

He did seem nervous. Under a lot of pressure to cave just like the rest of FOX, but he's a real man. He's doing what's right.
I think the Seth Rich family simply cannot believe the DNC would kill one of their own for political reasons. Hannity is showing compassion for their family.

This will be unpopular, but, at the end of the day, who gives a fuck about his family? If this is true, if there is proof out there that will be the first domino that brings down pizzagate, do we need to worry about making one family uncomfortable? It's fucking stupid.

If Pizzagate is true then you are right. From my POV it is likely NOT true. If it is NOT true then imagine how the family must feel reading your assessment or the behaviours of like-minded people.

I'm saying if Seth Rich is really the leaker, shill. What behaviors do you speak of? Wanting answers to an unsolved murder? This "don't ask questions, it's disrespectful" tactic is one employed by politicians assure they are never held accountable.

True but Hannity is only saying what we already know. He's just saying it on MSM platform. It's not like him saying it is going to break this case wide open. If he says it, Fox may very well have to fire him. And this charade continues. At least he got the chance to imply that he still believes there a story here, but was going to hold off for now.
In any case, I believe we are very close. Maybe another week.

In this situation, I think the Truth is more important than the additional anguish that the family would feel. It's quite clear that many people close to this situation are being threatened. There is a small window of opportunity for people in a position to bring the Truth to light to do so. Doing this may have profound implications for the world as a whole.

I agree. Put it this way: if what happened to Seth is what we think happened to him, then the implications of it go way beyond his little family - this affects everyone in the country and really the world.

Yeah, if something were to happen to Hannity's family, while he's reporting on a high-profile political murder, it would take a special kind of person to think nothing of it.

I'm talking about the Rich family.

Gold star for me
