Fox news Sean Hannity has responded to comedian Russell Brand, who recently tore strips off the anchor for what he claimed to be biased and ignorant reporting Israel-Gaza conflict.

Hannity called Brand “kind of dumb and ignorant” after Brand said Hannity “was behaving like a terrorist” on his own show yesterday.
@rustyrockets aka Mr. Katy Perry, heard you don't like my interview style. Well, I got some professional advice for you. Tune in at 10p ET

What came next was five minutes of Hannity, Bernard McGuirk and Dagen McDowe ridiculing Brand and his “D-List” acting as a “doofus” who is “skanky” and bears an unintelligible accent.
Geraldo Rivera, however, echoed some of Brand’s sentiments, saying that the Israel-Gaza conflict is not one-sided, as Hannity, McGuirk and McDowe claim. We need to discuss “how many civilians have been killed by those rockets,” the former chat show host said, adding, “We can no longer ignore what is happening.”
