Sean Hannity got a very high compliment Monday night. Carter Page, a former Donald Trump campaign adviser surveilled by the FBI for suspected ties to Russia, likened Hannity to a journalism icon.
“You have been the Edward R. Murrow of this whole process,” Page told Hannity during an appearance on Fox News, referring to both the famed CBS newsman and the Fox host's coverage of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.
Hannity has not been quite so immodest about himself, but he has styled his conservative opinion show as a beacon of good journalism in a fog of media deceit.
“What does the media have to prove, as it relates to Trump-Russia collusion, a year later?” Hannity asked viewers last month. “Nothing. No evidence. No facts. They're basing everything on nothing but their own conspiracy theory in their own little media bubble. We have been giving you facts. We have been telling you the truth.”

Hannity a bastion of facts and truth? Only in Trumpworld.
