When Michael Cohen went to court on Monday, he was compelled to reveal the name of his third, previously anonymous client. The big surprise to everyone was that it turned out to be Sean Hannity. Sean Hannity was been using his highest rated show over the last few weeks defending Cohen, and most recently blasting the investigators for raiding his office… all the while never mentioning that he was in fact one of his clients.

But does this matter? Obviously, Jimmy Kimmel has gotten a HUGE kick out this after his very public Twitter feud with Hannity, following Kimmel’s jokes about Melania’s accent, but is this really that big of a news story? We must return to the attorney client privilege discussion with regards to privacy, and ask ourselves if you really are required to report a confidential relationship, built on the very nature of that confidentiality, as a “conflict of interest?”

Should he have made it known that the man he was defending so fervently, was his lawyer (or consultant, as he’ll lead you to believe)? Is it a conflict of interest? 

Do concepts like conflict of interest even register at Fox News?
