      1. For understanding the Michael Cohen & Sean Hannity business I recommend a new forgotten novel, Sidney Zion's "Markers" (a roman a clef about, in part, Trump's mentor Roy Cohn).

      2. "Markers" is about a certain New York demimonde where legitimate society meets the underworld: a world of fixers & favors ("markers")

      3. Whether Hannity paid Cohen is immaterial. Cohen did Hannity some kind of favor & Hannity was in debt. Payment could be in cash or, just as likely, a "marker" for future use.

      4. The favorable coverage on Fox itself could be an in kind payment. That's one problem. People we're dealing with don't always work on ledgers with the numbers in place. It's more about bartering favors & connections.

          What we need is some untouchable guys to go after the bookkeepers.

          A good time for everyone to spool up The Sweet Smell of Success and consider the plight of our old friend, Sidney Falco.

          Bingo. I'm old enough to remember Jarred and Trump trying to blackmail Morning Joe for favorable coverage to stop a story in the national enquirer.

          Agree with your premise but begs the question, why identify Hannity as a client at all? There must be documentation of something between them otherwise no way would he have been outed.

          If Hannity was indebted to Cohen, how about, "why don't you come on my show and I'll get you some really good press? I'll even demand CNN apologize to you about Prague".
