(269,004 posts)Dean Hannity is a divisive right wing racist who supports white supremacists and has no problem inciting attacks against Federal officers.

(1,000 posts)But I also believe that he and his network are guilty of sedition and treason against the United States. I will be trying to find a place where I can file a complaint with the FCC. He was trying to incite a rebellion.
Douche bag is just to kind to him.

(1,000 posts)The FCCs rules prohibit holders of broadcast licenses from broadcasting false information concerning a crime or a catastrophe if:
the licensee knows the information is false; and
the licensee knows beforehand that broadcasting the information will cause substantial public harm. The public harm: (1) must begin immediately and cause direct and actual damage to property or the health or safety of the general public; or (2) divert law enforcement or public health and safety authorities from their duties.
I have underlined the relevant parts
I'm not a lawyer but it does look like this applies to fox. If someone had the stomach to watch or tape hannity's remarks and knows if he encouraged people to show up with weapons, we would need to include that information in a complaint.
Here is the link I found to file a complaint
Filing an Informal Complaint
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)That's how they can outright lie or fabricate stories out of whole clothe and get away with it.
Tribalceltic
(1,000 posts)However you can still make an informal general complaint. I'll give that a try.
Moveon.org has a complaint link for the FTC, on the basis that they claim to be "fair and balanced". Wonderful how they project.
There is a flush rush campaign also, Maybe there should be a flush fox campaign.
I've been looking into this issue all day, and know way to much about cliven, his thievery, and his sick family. I say arrest them all, take everything they have, make their bail $1 billion, and let them have their day in court 20 years from now.

To call him merely a douchebag is shocking and outragening!
He is clearly a tredouchet.

(115,693 posts)Hannity is just a waste of water and carbon.
John Cleese said it best:
Aping urbanity
Oozing with vanity
Plump as a manatee
Faking humanity
Journalistic calamity
Intellectual inanity
Fox Noise insanity
You're a profanity

(15,139 posts)race-baiting asshole in a league by himself. This is a sanctimonious prick who shows up at Family Research Council events when he isn't too busy being photographed with the women who work at the Bunny Ranch.
Truly lower than a shit stain.

I prefer to call him a smarmy, ageing frat-boy, POS prick. Scum sucking, self-aggrandizing Ebola virus, pustulent carbuncle, ugly, giant-headed, clanging empty vessel, noxious effluence that drips from a cheap PVC septic pipe.
