'Whooooo boy'! Sean Hannity blasts 'a**hole' reporter who quoted Rubio 'staffer'; Update: Reporter responds

“Oh dear” is right.

As Twitchy told you, earlier today, Politico’s Marc Caputo reported that a Rubio “staffer” went off on Sean Hannity, calling him a “f*cking a**hole” and a “p*ssy.”

Well, now Hannity is firing back. But not at the staffer … at Caputo.

That escalated quickly.

@seanhannity What the hell? Are you directing this at the reporter or at his source?

Why is @seanhannity pissed at @MarcACaputo? https://t.co/WVftRIHjb3

Fair question. But one thing’s for sure: Sean is most definitely pissed.

Yikes.

It’s certainly something.

Hannity’s got the support of some fans:

@seanhannity @MarcACaputo Hey, Sean, don't let the haters get you down. You have tons of fans and supporters, including me.

@seanhannity @MarcACaputo give it to the haters Sean

But other people are, shall we say, less sympathetic:
