Fox News and conservative radio host Sean Hannity on Wednesday bashed MSNBC “Morning Joe” co-host Joe Scarborough for defending Al Sharpton, who recently disputed a report that he was an FBI informant.

After Hannity criticized President Obama and “comrade” New York Mayor Bill DeBlasio for standing by Sharpton, he moved on to chide Scarborough.

“Oh and the RINO Joe Scarborough. You know, I love the media. The guy has zero ratings. Never had any ratings, ever,” Hannity said on his show, as recorded by Mediaite. “Aren’t they a cute team? Him and Mika? Right? They never get any ratings.”

Hannity went on to say that CNN’s “New Day” and Fox News’ “Fox and Friends” both have better ratings than “Morning Joe.” CNN’s morning show ratings soared when he network began its wall-to-wall coverage of the missing Malaysia Airlines plane.

On “Morning Joe” on Wednesday, Scarborough told Sharpton he was a “great example to people” for assisting the FBI.
