Firing Sean Hannity won't make the Seth Rich investigation go away

[Delmar]

His obsession with the Seth Rich conspiracy theory should be the last straw. If Fox News wants to be a serious news outlet—a big "if"—then he must go.

The Washington Post published a moving column on Tuesday that, for good reason, became one of the most widely read articles on the site. It was written by Mary and Joel Rich, who are public figures only insofar as they’re the parents of Seth Rich, the 27-year-old staffer at the Democratic National Committee who was shot dead late one night last year in Washington, D.C. Police, who haven’t solved the case, believe it was a botched robbery. But because of Rich’s place of employment, and some reckless (and retracted) suggestions by WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, denizens of the right-wing fever swamps have concocted a conspiracy theory that Rich was murdered for supplying DNC emails to WikiLeaks. And they won’t let it go.


“Imagine that every single day, with every phone call,” the Riches wrote, “you hope that it’s the police, calling to tell you that there has been a break in the case. Imagine you have no answers—that no one has been brought to justice and there are few clues leading to the killer or killers. Imagine that instead, every call that comes in is a reporter asking what you think of a series of lies or conspiracies about the death. That nightmare is what our family goes through every day.” There is no evidence “that Seth’s murder had any connection to his job,” they added. “Still, conservative news outlets and commentators continue, day after painful day, to peddle discredited conspiracy theories that Seth was killed after having provided WikiLeaks with emails from the DNC. Those theories, which some reporters have since retracted, are baseless, and they are unspeakably cruel.”

It looks like the OP has been up for a while and a few primitives have RECed it, but it looks like they're afraid to comment on it or acknowledge it in any meaningful way.  There's no sweeping this under the rug and making it go away.  Momentum is building.  Primitive pants are filling up with crap.

BREAKING: GOP Lawmaker Calls for Federal Investigation of Seth Rich Murder

This has legs--as the old saying goes.

Farenthold elaborated on his opinion of how the investigation should be handled in a phone interview with the Caller-Times. The death should be investigated in the same manner Russian interference has been reviewed, he said.

If they put that kind of a Manhattan Project level of effort into it, it's hard telling what they could turn up.  Justice for Seth Rich and closure for his grieving parents, maybe.

If Sean Hannity must go so FOX won't suffer, then that thin bull dike on MSNBC must go so MSNBC won't suffer the same fate, whatever that may be.  Hannity is not a newsman in the sense you want to make him one. 

Hannity is a conservative commentator in the same vein that lesbian dike is a smelly lefty commentator.  If Hannity must go, that homosexual dike must go on MSNBC.

Remember when lefty was damned certain Trig Palin was the offspring of Bristol and her father's incestuous relationship that Sarah his because she was probably abused because that's what conservative men do to their women?

**** them.
