SEAN HANNITY (HOST): I think people -- this is an ongoing, never-ending negotiation that we're watching unfold. Should all of this have been handled behind the scenes? Yeah, I was in communication with many of these people and my advice was simple: get in a room, leave your egos and your cell phone at the door, and hammer out an agreement that is acceptable to everybody. And I said it to the people that matter. I said it repeatedly. And, you know, at one point I even said, you want to come to my house and talk? Come to my house.

And but, you know, look, it's -- everybody has their own agenda here. Do I think it ultimately is going to work out? I do. And I just think it's going to take a little bit longer period of time than necessary.
