Hannity Caught Playing Both Sides of the Fence

Former Fox News Chief Political Correspondent Carl Cameron has given his thoughts on his former co-worker Sean Hannity and the texts he sent to the White House around January 6th.

Talking to CNN’s Anderson Cooper, Cameron says that Hannity basically got caught trying to play both sides of the fence.

Hannity texted then-White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and Rep. Jim Jordan prior to President Biden's inauguration.

"Guys, we have a clear path to land the plane in 9 days,” Hannity texted. “He can't mention the election again. Ever. I did not have a good call with him today. And worse, I'm not sure what is left to do or say, and I don't like not knowing if it's truly understood. Ideas?"

Cameron believe this shows that Hannity was saying one thing behind the scenes and something different with his viewers.

“Bottom line, it looks like Sean may have been playing both sides of the fence and got caught,” Cameron said. “Fox viewers saw him as gung-ho for all of this when, in fact, he was talking to both Meadows and Jordan saying we have got a problem.”

Cameron believes Hannity should cooperate with the January 6th committee's request to speak with them, but he says the buck stops with the politicians.

“Sean Hannity for all intents and purposes was an acolyte of Rush Limbaugh 25, 30 years ago as a radio talking head,” Cameron said. “He's not a journalist, doesn't profess to be. In fact, he says that himself. And so it really is the politicians who have to be held accountable to this, particularly the likes of Jordan and Meadows.”
