Sean Hannity Gets Defensive After His Election Texts With Mark Meadows Revealed: ‘I Don’t Claim to Be a Journalist’ (Video) – By Antoinette Siu (The Wrap) / April 30, 2022
Fox News anchor Sean Hannity said he is a talk show host — not a journalist — following the investigations into his text exchanges with Mark Meadows, former chief of staff to Trump.
Hannity defended his role as a host on his Friday night broadcast, saying he is not a journalist and therefore has been upfront about his political ties. These remarks come as CNN last week reported on Hannity’s exchanges with Meadows following the 2020 presidential election.
The text messages reveal that Hannity acted similar to a GOP operative, following Meadows’ orders about Election Day initiatives to broadcast on his radio show and having his team “digging into the numbers” that show voter fraud. In the texts, there was also discussion of doing a campaign ad for Trump’s re-election bid.
