Hannity blasted Maddow as a Russia collusion conspiracy theorist and questioned how people would react if he and other Fox News opinion hosts were tapped to host a presidential debate. On this week’s episode of Unfit to Print, host Amber Athey breaks down the latest in the spat. (RELATED: NBC Faces Flak For Naming Maddow A Moderator For Presidential Debate)
