On Tuesday, the Fox News Channel’s “Kelly File” host Megyn Kelly criticized the “double standard” between the treatment of the Black Lives Matter movement and the Tea Party, stating with the Black Lives Matter movement, “suddenly the actions of a few do not apply to the many” like they did with the Tea Party.
Kelly began by playing footage of a New Black Panther group chanting “Oink oink, bang bang” in front of a jail in Texas, which she said was “Just one of the angry and incendiary chants we have seen against police in recent months. … But so far, haven’t heard much from Washington. however, take a walk back with me to 2011, when a shooting in Tucson led to an angry chorus complaining about what they said was angry Tea Party rhetoric.”

Still not watching FOX news, but thanks.
Still won’t be watching Me-again Kelly,,not going to happen. I truly appreciate your post though.
**“suddenly the actions of a few do not apply to the many” like they did with the Tea Party.**
Just when did the Tea Party sanction killing cops, or anybody else for that matter?
Nice try. Replacing her writers to giver her better words to read does not change anything.
I’m still waiting to hear tales of illegal behavior by tea partiers. Kelly decries the lack of holding the BLM movement responsible for behavior of its supporters, but then equates the same situation to the tea party.
There is no such example, to my knowledge, where the tea party did not police its own members, including weeding out disruptors.
Have I missed something?
I don’t watch her or O’Reilly anymore.
Everything she does is mandated and controlled by Roger Ailes personally. He can't say anything positive about Trump to bring viewers back, so he's having her take this kind of position to convince viewers that she is not a phony.
She is a total phony.
Remember when the Tea Party was calling for the death of police officers?
...neither do I.
LOL at you thinking that was unflattering gif of Megyn Kelly. I hope you’re not a guy.
She’s an ass, but that is a fine butt.
Roger Ailes of Fox News is allowing a few “conservative squeeks” to slip out...
they want their audience share back...costing them...

Kelly File ratings for:
- Monday August 24: 3,096,000
- Monday August 31: 2,903,000
Time for the transition to MSNBC
Why is she equivocating the black lives murder movement with the tea party.
She wants you to think the TEA Party are racists too.
I don’t think Kelly was talking about the
controlling of the behavior of members of
BLM or the Tea Party. More specifically she
was referring to the disconnect between
Democrat’s criticism of some Tea Party rhetoric
and their tolerance of BLM rhetoric. Likewise,
the MSM has their blinders on when it comes
to Black Lives Matter.
Has she ever came out in defense of the Tea Party before?...BTW, Where is the Tea Party?
