Dan Rather was punished for reporting false information. How come Sean Hannity is immune to this?

I am referring to him saying that Obama's Health care plan would cover illegal immigrants, etc.Dan Rather was punished for reporting false information. How come Sean Hannity is immune to this?
Sean Hannity uses accurate information.Dan Rather was punished for reporting false information. How come Sean Hannity is immune to this?
First it has to be false information... as in the Rather case. Hannity's information was correct... which has been proven over and over again. Why haven't you figured that out yet? And BTW, why have the recent amendments included statements that illegals were not to be covered... if that was already the case in the earlier versions?
Well it has to do with several things.


First the organization. CBS is a reputable news source. Fox goes for sensational news.


Second its the difference between real news and opinion. Real news delivers facts in context. Opinion takes statements out of context and spins it to the reporters point of view.


Third is the difference between news and entertainment. A real reporter never raises his or her voice or uses inflammatory phrases. Maddow, Oberman, Beck, Hannity and Limbaugh are not reporters, their entertainers.
Dan Rather used proven false information


Hannity is stating information obtained on the internet that


proves in the initial health care legislation - also there is


no final bill so it is still up in the air if illegals will be


covered under the Senate version.
A little one sided huh?





What of Mr. ';I felt a thrill run up my leg'; and all his lies?





Quit watching Chris Matthews and MSNBC and pay attention to the REAL news.





And no, I don't watch Fox or any of the other biased ';journalists';.
You really answered your own question. Sean isn't lying, or making up false information.
