Fox News yanked Sean’s plug, last minute on his big-deal tea party show Thursday from Kinky-natti because execs were unaware the appearance was being used to…get this…sell ducats to the event – but the story isn’t over, no, no, no, no.

We hear execs at Fock News Channel remain furious because they were blindsided by Hannity’s staff.

I’ve found out that “the network is planning an extensive post-mortem about the incident with Hannity’s staff.” We hear there are still post-mortems going on – in other words, this is far from over.

I know the background on this.. The order to cancel Hannity’s Tea Party broadcast came from FOX News Chairman Roger Ailes, not the shameless Hannity toady, Bill Shine who is an exec. prod. at FoNeCha.

In fact, Shine said “When senior executives in New York were made aware of this, we changed our plans for tonight’s (Thursday) show.”

Is Sean Hannity self-destructing? Is he proving to be a liability, a headache not worth the male diva prima donna act? Is he, in fact, sweating blood over his loss of prestige and star-power since the arrival of Glynn Beck? Will Hannity lose his timeslot? Answer to that last one: No.

BUT………….. this incident shows what can happen when major FNC personalities put their personal interests and side projects ahead of Fox News. As FNC grows into the unmatched powerhouse it has become, so too have their big stars become that much bigger. Hannity, Glynn and Bilbo Bo’Biley

It is tempting to say that this incident reflects poorly on Fox News alone but the fact is CNN would self-mutilate for a controversy like this. To have talent so magnetic it’s selling books and dvd’s by the pant-load means people are paying attention to you and not just hearing you in the background. Why do you suppose CNN, not Fox, is on in airports? Because people don’t want to miss their planes.
