Yeah, but he would be a lying piece of shit scooping ice cream up for the tourists in Warwick, Rhode Island, or unloading trucks at the feed store in Athens, Alabama (both actual places Hannity existed in), instead of being one on national teevee.

I don’t think Clinton and Ailes are in the same league on how they treated women.

Also, Clinton’s sexual entanglements were investigated and never came to anything (well, the one that did was his impeachment and Lewinsky admitted it was consensual and that is the one republicans nailed him for…go figure).

Willey, Jones, Broaddrick were investigated and found to be lacking in evidence.

Fox, on the other hand, paid how many tens of millions to make the allegations go away?

I’m not saying Clinton wasn’t a cheating bastard. He definitely was. But his actions were not criminal like Ailes.

You guys both appear to be talking about people who do their “news” thing on television. That being the case, the question demanding to be asked is:

_“What the HELL does journalism have to do with it?”_

For the first time in its history, MSNBC ranked number one in both total viewers and the key adults 25-54 demographic during primetime for a full week among the big three cable news networks, according to [Nielsen data](https://www.yahoo.com/tv/msnbc-hits-ratings-milestone-fox-news-drops-third-205835259.html).

Is the worm turning?
