There's that old showbiz adage, "The show must go on," and say what you will about Fox News host Sean Hannity, he was the consummate professional showman on his show Thursday night. While he was wrapping up a segment about how the vulgar media hates President Trump and teasing updates on the Jussie Smollett and college admissions bribery scandals, a large bug crawled up from the collar of his shirt, crossed his neck, and was heading toward his mouth when he went to commercial.
Assuming Hannity felt the bug — and how could he not have? — that's a pretty impressive show of self-control.
