      This is a situation where unnamed sources are not all that helpful, imho, due to the varying motives of different parties right now: https://twitter.com/DianneG/status/985962602533711872 …

      If this description of their relationship is accurate, then there shouldn't be loads of privileged files to worry about. There probably wouldn't be any files, aside from idk--a few emails with theoretical questions, right? https://twitter.com/chrisgeidner/status/985969661786447873 …

      Fox has serious questions to answer about why Hannity was allowed to rant on the Cohen raid without disclosing this. Did they not know? https://twitter.com/eorden/status/985953454668570630 …

      Chris Geidner Retweeted Sean Hannity

      So, as @nycsouthpaw said earlier, either this is not accurately portraying the relationship, or there are basically no A-C privileged files at issue — which would undermine the argument Cohen's lawyers are trying to make in court.https://twitter.com/seanhannity/status/985970632201564161 …

      Michael Cohen has never represented me in any matter. I never retained him, received an invoice, or paid legal fees. I have occasionally had brief discussions with him about legal questions about which I wanted his input and perspective.

      Replying to @chrisgeidner @nycsouthpaw

      I'm (maybe charitably) thinking Hannity is trying to be nuanced, which is not his strong suit, and is avoiding coming out and saying that Cohen gave him free legal advice on something that didn't become a lawsuit or litigation, which would be privileged.

      Replying to @shadowfuzz @nycsouthpaw

      Even if so, there would basically be no A-C privileged files at issue. And, now that the name has been made public, the taint team would know that the couple emails relating to that might be protected and could easily isolate them. Am I missing something?

      Replying to @chrisgeidner @nycsouthpaw

      No, there's just an explosion of tweets that seem to think you have to pay a fee for A-C privilege to exist at all. And yes, this would seem to make it easier to isolate any files at issue. Bigger issue to me is Hannity shouldn't have been reporting on Cohen without disclosure.

      All true — though, obviously none of us in this thread!
