Sean Hannity has built a reputation as one of the most volatile TV hosts throughout his career. His propensity to call those who disagree with him on Twitter a "jackass" is no secret to his followers. Because of his mean demeanor on TV and in the social media sphere, controversy and hostility follow him around.
As such, his reputation as a conservative blowhard took a turn for the worse as CNN reported Thursday night that Sean Hannity once pointed a gun at liberal political analyst Juan Williams following an on-air debate back in October 2016.
According to three unnamed sources who claimed to have knowledge of the incident, Sean Hannity even turned on his gun's laser sight, causing a red dot to wander on Williams' body. Sources added that while Hannity was just showing off, the stunt clearly discomfited Juan Williams and other people on set.
