Watch: Hannity Panel On Race Explodes With Rage: ‘Let Me Answer, Sean!’
A tense exchange between Fox News host Sean Hannity and three black panelists reached a fever pitch when one guest asserted that Hannity intentionally relegated his point of view. In a segment focusing on the racial tension engulfing college campuses across the country, the first two panelists largely agreed that protests currently underway are imprudent.
“A lot of people at the University of Missouri school system are embarrassed by this,” said author and radio host Kevin Jackson, “including black students. And they find it as nonsensical as probably most of America.”
Milwaukee County, Wis., Sheriff David Clarke went on to identify an almost invisible victim at the heart of the turmoil.
“These are tax-supported schools,” he said. “That president that resigned and these professors, they don’t work for the students, they work for the taxpayers of Missouri. And the taxpayers ought to stand up and demand that their money stop being spent to fund these laboratories of liberal indoctrination.”
Hannity asked attorney Eric Guster about “racism on the other side,” specifically citing an incident at Yale University in which students attending a free speech event were spat upon by protesters.
“Well,” he replied, “let’s talk about Missouri.”
Hannity attempted to ensure that his guest answered the question at hand, prompting Guster to cry foul.
“You let Sheriff Clarke rail on about some nonsense,” he complained. “I would love to answer, to reply to that.”
Pressed to come up with some sort of response, Guster finally acknowledged that he does not “agree with spitting on someone or that type of behavior.”
The concession led to continued protestation:
You let super-conservative people run on, Sean. And you always try to put me in a box on what I want to debunk.
He dismissed Hannity with a wave of his hand as the host moved on to Jackson. A moment later, however, Guster interrupted Jackson as the latter suggested the events that sparked recent protests might have been manufactured.
As the two guests talked simultaneously, Hannity tried to cut them off.
“Let’s bring back Sheriff Clarke,” he said.
An animated Guster shouted: “Let me answer, Sean! You never give me a chance to reply.”
“Why are you complaining?” Hannity shot back. “You just had the floor.”
