Megyn Kelly eyeing move to Fox News' rival?
World Net Daily ^ | 8/28/2015 | Cheryl Chumley

A New York Magazine writer and author of the 2014 book about Fox News CEO Roger Ailes, "The Loudest Voice in the Room," said in a recent televised interview the cable station's biggest star, Megyn Kelly, may not be re-engaging in public disputes with presidential hopeful Donald Trump because she doesn't want to hurt her chances to move to a more mainstream network, like CNN.

Trump, on the other hand, claimed her vacation was due to the fireworks she faced from her presidential debate questions about his previous treatment of women. As soon as she returned, he retweeted messages from Twitter posters that once again, called her a "bimbo." Various Fox personalities called Trump wrong for reigniting the dispute with Kelly, while Ailes came out and called for the presidential contender to apologize.

Kelly, meanwhile, took the high road and didn't directly respond to Trump's latest attacks. And Newsmax TV host Steve Malzberg wanted author Gabriel Sherman to explain why. "I think she, up until this point, was kind of the fastest rising star at Fox," Sherman said. "She was really becoming the face of the network. ...

Since when is CNN more “mainstream”? They have a tiny fraction of Fox’s audience. Maybe the author meant to say “more liberal”.

She’s “taking the high road”? Maybe she knows she got herself into a contest she cannot win. Having your own show makes you think you’re invincible after a while. Suddenly she finds she can’t have the last word.

CNN a “more mainstream rival”?

Kelly MeGYN, taking the “high road”?

These writers are such a waste of time.

Do you also not understand why conservatives do not like liberals? Or why Christians do not like communists?

Ailes in translation:

She wants to move to another network, and we are encouraging her to do so by not standing in her way.

CNN’s numbers are starting to rise. Why would they want to bring in Kelly and all her baggage to bring them back down again?

Looks like Fox News realizes that have an image problem with Kelly and are probably wanting her to leave or say good bye to “Fair and Balance”.

She went full “dan rather” with her preplanned tie to Jorge ramos’ stalking hit piece.

She KNOWS that cost her money. If anything she should be finished.
