Rich

Hi.

" But it is rich of broadcasters to preach against professional politics when they were its midwives, and sinister of them to promote fanaticism as a cure for the boredom it generates." [From The Guardian.]

What does the complement "rich" stand for in the sentence? Is it a noun or an adjective?

Thank you.
