'''Sean Patrick Hannity''' (born December 30, 1961) is a conservative talk show host. The youngest of four children, Hannity was born in [[New York City]] to Irish immigrants. He dropped out of college to embark on radio career, and in 1988 was at a small-town station of WVNN in Huntsville, Alabama. He later broke into a Top 10 market in Atlanta at 640 AM WGST. His national recognition came as an occasional substitute host of the #1 radio show of all-time - The [[Rush Limbaugh]] Show. Allegedly on his first guest show, he dropped the golden EIB microphone because of a case of high nerves. This nationwide attention paved his way to national syndication.

In 2000 the Christian Science Monitor reported that Hannity was arrested in June of 1978 for failure to maintain lane and charged with DUI. Hannity responded that the news organization was simply trying to smear his name and maintained that “we all do things as children that we should not do. I know better than to drink and drive now and would never engage in that type of foolish activity”
