Seeking to escape President Donald Trump’s disconnexus monologues over the phone at the beginning of his presidency, Fox News opinion presenter Sean Hannity has resorted to vaping and stress, according to a new e-book through CNN’s Brian Stelter.
“At the beginning of the Trump era, Hannity gained weight and vape constantly, which some members of his entourage have attributed to Trump’s tension,” wrote CNN’s leading media correspondent Stelter in his new book, “Hoax: Donald Trump, Fox News, and the Dangerous Distortion of Truth,” will be released Tuesday through Simon and Schuster.
The e-book, an excerpt from what was published Thursday at Vanity Fair, says Hannity told a colleague, “If you listen to what I hear, you would too.”
Stelter said he had spoken to more than 140 Fox News and 180 former workers and others “with direct links to the network” for the book.
The e-book focuses on Trump’s quotes with Hannity, “the president’s ‘shadow staff leader’, as he called him at the White House,” Stelter wrote.
Hannity also had some drawbacks, according to Stelter’s sources.
“Hannity pleaded with Trump at any time of the day; one of his confidants said the president treated Hannity like Melania, a wife in a sexless marriage,” she wrote. “You can say he treated Hannity better than Melania.”
Despite all of his pro-Trump policy at nine o’clock at night, Array Hannity, the oldest presenter on Fox News, complained privately to the president, the e-book says.
“‘Hannity would tell you, nonstop, that Trump is a bat, a madman,” said one of his associates,” Stelter wrote, adding that that friend had told him,” Hannity told me more. at once, ‘he’s crazy.’ “
Hannity also told a colleague that in his calls with Trump, “I understand a little,” the e-book says.
Trump, who tweets Fox News live programming, also spoke to Hannity as a fan.
“Trump like the rest of Hannity’s viewers: he looked more for Gregg Jarrett in the series, plus Dan Bongino, plus Newt Gingrich, as many toads as possible,” Stelter wrote.
