Republican Senator Martha McSally of Arizona had an amazing viral moment this week.
When she was asked about impeachment by a CNN reporter as she was walking down a hall in Congress, she dismissed him as a liberal hack.
It’s about time Republicans started dealing with CNN in this way.

WATCH: Sen. Martha McSally Shuts Down CNN Reporter’s Question By Calling Him a ‘Liberal Hack’
Sen. Martha McSally (R-AZ) blasted CNN Senior Congressional Correspondent Manu Raju as a “liberal hack” when he asked her a question on Capitol Hill Thursday morning.
Raju first tweeted about the exchange, describing McSally’s remark as having “lashed out.”
“Senator McSally, should the Senate consider new evidence as part of the impeachment trial?” Raju asked.
“Manu, you’re a liberal hack,” McSally replied. “I’m not talking to you.”

“You’re not going to comment?” Raju then asked.
“You’re a liberal hack,” McSally repeated.

This is the sexism women face everyday
If they don't stop, smile, and answer when a man talks to them, they're "lashing out" https://t.co/1LHMSmGHmB

How many women have had to put up with Manus on the street, Manus on the bus, Manus on the subway, Manus online. Saying no to a Manu shouldn’t be a bad thing.

McSally isn’t backing down, either.
"I'm a fighter pilot! I called it like it is!"

Good for her.
Other Republicans should take note.
Call the hacks out for who they are.
