Sean Hannity (left) has signed a new deal with Fox News that will keep him at the network through 2012.
The new deal comes on the heels of a lucrative $20 million pact to continue his radio show, which is syndicated in 500 markets.
Hannity co hosts FNC's top-rated Hannity & Colmes and the Sunday show Hannity's America.
Hannity & Colmes, which has Allan Colmes offering the liberal counterpoint to Hannity's conservativism, has been No. 1 in its 9 p.m. time-slot for 58 consecutive weeks.
The show had some of its best ratings for the year when Hannity sat down with Republican vice presidential hopeful Sarah Palin. The first part of that interview was watched by nearly 5 million viewers.
In making the announcement, Bill Shine, senior vice president of programming for Fox News Channel, called Hannity "one of the most prominent conservative minds in the American political landscape" adding, "Sean consistently advances the news of the day with insightful and provocative commentary. We are delighted that he will remain a marquee name at FOX News for several years to come.”

Sharron - you are an idiot. It was the national anthem, not the pledge of allegience - thus no reason to put your hand on your heart. Get your facts straight.

Individuals that are not Obama supporters all have different reasons for not voing for him. Race is one of them, however, I believe the biggest one is the fact that I don't believe he can be trusted. If he & his family can't agree on where he was born (Kenya or Hawaii) & he has all this money coming in from "who knows where", how can we trust him with our country?. The picture of him with his hands clasped in front of him, standing in front of the American flag, while Hillary Clinton, John McCain & others have their hand placed upon their hearts for the pledge of allegience, says it all. The only time he & his racist wife have been proud Americans is now, perhaps since he needs something from the rest of us. He is not nearly "American enough" for me.

YOU MUST HAVE FORGOT TO TALK ABOUT THIS ON YOUR SHOW, BIGOT HANNITY
PALIN CALLS OBAMA “SAMBOâ€!!!!!
Sarah Palin's Secret
Shocking Sarah Palin Video! You've Got to See This to Believe it ...

“So Sambo beat the bitch!â€
This is how Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin described Barack Obama’s win over Hillary Clinton to political colleagues in a restaurant a few days after Obama locked up the Democratic Party presidential nomination. According to Lucille, the waitress serving her table at the time and who asked that her last name not be used, Gov. Palin was eating lunch with five or six people when the subject of the Democrat’s primary battle came up. The governor, seemingly not caring that people at nearby tables would likely hear her, uttered the slur and then laughed loudly as her meal mates joined in appreciatively.
