I love how the Media is acting all indignant about Sean Hannity sharing a stage with Trump.
Because all of them are so Unbiased and professional.

On Monday, Fox News’ Sean Hannity said that “I will not be on stage campaigning with the President” at his MAGA rally in Cape Girardeau, Missouri:
In spite of reports, I will be doing a live show from Cape Girardeau and interviewing President Trump before the rally. To be clear, I will not be on stage campaigning with the President. I am covering final rally for my show. Something I have done in every election in the past.

And then President Trump called Sean Hannity up on stage at the rally where Hannity promptly joked about the “fake news” in attendance:
“Let’s get it over with, right?” Trump says as he introduces Sean Hannity at his rally in Missouri.
Hannity— who tweeted earlier, “To be clear, I will not be on stage campaigning with the President”—takes the stage and, pointing to the media in the back, calls them “fake news.”

Watch!
Alisyn Camerota on Sean Hannity, who campaigned with Trump: "Who does he think he's fooling by saying he had no idea he was going to be invited up there? Here's what's going on at Fox: They know, vaguely, that they're not supposed to have one of their hosts endorse a candidate" pic.twitter.com/4NoTqyQZdg

Trump calls Sean Hannity, who said he would not be a special guest at this rally, to the stage. Hannity's first words: "By the way all those people in the back are fake news."

It’s President Hannity, thank you very much:
Is it usual for people who aren’t the president to speak from behind the presidential seal? Never mind the Hannity bit for a moment. https://t.co/qudydFCC0y

Still can’t get over Hannity denying he would be on stage the whole day, getting brought up by Trump, and then pointing to actual news reporters and calling them fake. https://t.co/DZTVw0FWqY

Yes, we can tell you’re truly concerned about this:
I genuinely feel bad for the Fox reporters and producers who are at the rally. They're just trying to do their jobs. And a Fox star is insulting them. https://t.co/Q64qxds7Wd

Not only was Sean Hannity on stage campaigning with Trump tonight, Hannity's first words were "By the way all those people in the back are fake news."
After tweeting this hours earlier… you just can't make this up. https://t.co/OAGsoYXHXT

Thank you for proving our point. Everyone knows who Don Lemon and others at CNN would support. Why pretend otherwise?
CNN's Camerota, formerly of Fox News: "They're having a schizophrenic moment over there (at Fox) trying to figure out what their role is supposed to be with the Trump presidency … Can you imagine Don Lemon campaigning for Stacey Abrams?" https://t.co/A3C8akYhBi https://t.co/UyfK30P3qm

Also on stage with Trump was Fox News’ Jeanine Pirro:
The White House-Fox News nexus has rarely been as evident as tonight in Cape Girardeau:
-Hannity pre-game interview
-Trump praises Ingraham in interview
-Shine high-fives Hannity
-Trump calls Hannity on stage
-Trump calls Judge Jeanine on stage
-Trump praises McDaniel’s Fox hits— Philip Rucker (@PhilipRucker) November 6, 2018
Who might have gotten a promotion to the Supreme Court:
Trump introduced Jeanine Pirro as "Justice Jeanine." A promotion?

Actually, Hannity was pretty damn popular in that rally:
Trump rally or Fox rally? https://t.co/5b7qO17rpM

OH NO NOT A HIGH-FIVE:
