News Hounds did it again. The premier Web site devoted to exposing half-baked truths and lies by Fox News Channel caught conservative host Sean Hannity chastising a guest who predicted the current economic crisis several weeks back. Watch how Hannity, a right-wing extremist, shouts him down and is flat-out belligerent and unprofessional in interrupting and belittling his guest for having the audacity to have a different opinion on the state of the economy. The guest, economist Robert Kuttner, was tough and more than equal to the task as he remembered what you learned in grade school about standing up to the bully on the block and not being steamrolled. Kuttner was on point with his message and never wavered even as Hannity made a strong effort to try and intimidate him. Weak on arguing the economy with an economist, Hannity also tried to slam Sen. Barack Obama by bringing up the old guilty-by-association argument he has been shoving down the throats of his viewers and listeners for months. In this case, people are worried less about Jeremiah Wright (... Hannity ignores Sen. John McCain's associations with Rod Parsley and John Hagee) and more about the economy and their pocketbooks. But, with the current economic crisis, look at this video and ask yourself who the fool on this panel really was?
