Its no secret that Fox News hit a bit of an unenviable snag recently when a Senate review of Americas interrogation techniques during the Bush administration revealed wide-spread, systematic use of horrific acts of torture. Tasked with somehow supporting former president George W. Bush through the ugly details, the network dove head first into not just apologizing for, but justifying, the use of torture by his administration.
While the whole Fox News family really pulled together on this one and pushed their pro-torture message in unison, there was one standout who really managed to take the torture isnt wrong message to the next level.
Nobody does shameless right-wing pandering better than Sean Hannity, so the conservative pundit has been working overtime to pretend that he is totally cool with the findings of the Senate torture report. Apparently, spindoctoring the Bush war crimes didnt stop at the end of his broadcast, though, because on December 10, he gleefully spent the night tweeting visual reminders of why America had to inflict pain on terror suspects extremely graphic, sickening visual reminders.
First, Hannity retweeted one of his fans tweets which featured the Twin Towers at the moment of impact on 9/11. Then he tweeted it again. Concluding that wasnt enough, Hannity then decided to show liberals what real torture was by retweeting an image of journalist James Foleys body after ISIS decapitated him. Foleys family has been vocal about people not using images of his murder to push petty political agendas but hey, Hannity doesnt see the problem with it. Thinking that wasnt enough vileness for one night, Hannity tweeted a picture of some dead and dismembered children. To the photo, he added a list of acts of terrorism committed against the United States which he believed justified torture.
