Sean Hannityright Sean Patrick Hannity (born December 30, 1961, in New York City, New York) is an American conservative talk radio host and co-host of Fox News Channel's political debate program Hannity & Colmes, and the author of two books. Hannity is of Irish descent (all four of his grandparents immigrated to the U.S. from Ireland) and he is a devout Catholic. Overview Hannity attended New York University but dropped out to pursue his radio career. After placing an ad in radio publications presenting himself as "the most talked about college radio host in America", WVNN in Huntsville, Alabama hired Sean to be the morning talk show host. From there, Sean Hannity was hired by WGST in Atlanta to fill the slot vacated by Neal Boortz, who had moved on to competing station WSB. Roger Ailes, founder of the Fox News Channel, took a chance on the relatively unknown Hannity, hiring him to co-host Hannity and Colmes with Alan Colmes. Hannity moved to New York to do Hannity and Colmes and to do a local radio show on WABC. His radio program went nationally syndicated on September 10, 2001. It is aired from WABC in New York and is now heard on well over 400 stations nationwide. Hannity's program now boasts the second-largest radio audience in the country, heard by over 13 million listeners a week. Hannity is known for his confrontational style with guests on his programs, and conservative views. He is also known for calling boycotts against artists and actors who did not support the Iraq War or George W. Bush.
