Setting the record straight, regarding Cohen and Hannity

[nat4900]

There's a few issues that need to be clarified on this forum regarding the "relationship" between Cohen and Hannity:

1. It was Cohen (no one else) who labeled Sean Hannity a CLIENT

2. Attorney-client privilege does NOT include the divulging of a client's name (as circuit courts have determined.) .......so, the claim that Hannity's name as a "client" should not be known, is invalid.

3. The exchange of money between an attorney and an individual is NOT a requisite to determine that the individual is a client.......For example, pro bono cases do not require payments.....

But, much more damaging to the Cohen-Hannity relationship COULD BE the exchange of legal advice (by Cohen) for the "payment" (by Hannity) in providing good press for Trump on his TV/Radio shows. This would certainly be very hard to prove, but I point it out solely because the relationship between these 2 men should have been openly disclosed much earlier.

One additional issue.....

Cohen's attorneys were making a claim that the records seized from Cohen should fall under "attorney-client" privileges......

If Hannity vehemently claims that he was not Cohen's client, then ANY documentation between Cohen and Hannity does NOT fall under that privilege.

You CANNOT have it both ways.

This one is Cohen, no one else.

Good point, Jake

How can any of these posters set any record straight when all they can do is parrot 3rd and 4th hand "news"?

Yeah because that obsequious apparatchik Sean Hannity needs to be bribed to provide completely devoid of objectivity, bootlicking coverage for Republicans.

Good point, Jake

Still on that "Jake" thing, Frankie???.........lol

 

[JakeStarkey]

Frank's problem is that I can handle ten of him, while ten of him can't handle one of me, Nat.

It is hilarious, looking at my posting numbers, to think I have time for a sock and a full writing career.

It's kind of the law...You know regular folks watch law dramas and this comes up...

Actually in UK and Ireland the regular population know more about US law than there own country...

Appearing as the defendants in cases doesn't qualify as "knew the law"....

And ABC, CBS,NBC, MSNBC, CNN, NPR, Washington Post, and the New York Times are the bootlicking PR spokesman for the DNC!

I'm still trying to figure out what talk-show hosts, human semen receptacles (porn stars), lawyers, Access Hollywood tapes, etc. have to do with collusion...

Hannity is lying like the lil bitch he is -

Yes, the entire fucking planet (except for that 1/3 of the Trump cult members) are against you....Take some chips while you hide under your bed.

Reality has a liberal bias....

How do you reconcile these two remarks....
Read this thread, dumb ass.

Seriously? He claims there were no documents, no contracts, no money exchanged. The hearing was ALL ABOUT DOCUMENTS and Cohen's team spent several days attempting to protect his identity because THEY KNOW THERE ARE DOCUMENTS.

Hannity is a lying punk

 

[nat4900]

What did he lie about?

At least five advertising firms have pulled their commercials from the Sean Hannity Show on Fox News following the television host’s coverage of a false murder conspiracy. Hannity reiterated a now-debunked theory regarding the death of Seth Rich, a Democratic National Committee employee who was gunned down last summer in Washington, D.C. While local police suspect the shooting to be a botched robbery, Hannity claimed that Rich was murdered over his alleged ties to WikiLeaks.
