Megyn Kelly, who arrived at Fox News 12 years ago as a television news neophyte but rose to become one of its two biggest stars, has decided to leave the network to take on a broad new role at NBC News for an undisclosed amount, people briefed on the negotiations said on Tuesday.
The NBC News chairman, Andrew Lack, wooed Ms. Kelly away from Fox News by offering her a triple role in which she will host her own daytime news and discussion program, anchor an in-depth Sunday night news show and take regular part in the network’s special political programming and other big-event coverage.
The move will herald a seismic shift in the cable news landscape, where Ms. Kelly had become the second-most watched host — after Bill O’Reilly of Fox News — and often helped define the national political debate, especially over the last year as Donald J. Trump regularly attacked her, at times in viciously personal terms.

Now she can come out as the Liberal she’s always been.
Megyn is a ‘has been’...she won’t be missed !
Another good riddance: Megyn Smug as well as Barry Soetoro.
She’ll fit right in
Laura Ingraham for her show.
Good! I will never have to see or hear from her again.
“Yeah, she aired the claims, but I don’t think she either stated or implied that they were true.”
Her first question for the first debate does not give her much wiggle room. And she jumped on one particular charge, involving a former wife, with fury.
Ah, finally the trash is being expelled. Fox has one hell of lot to go to get back to the conservatives and probably never totally will.
“...and often helped define the national political debate, especially over the last year as Donald J. Trump regularly attacked her, at times in viciously personal terms.”
Propaganda.
In fact, she asked a wholly inappropriate “gotcha” question to kick off the first Republican debate, elevated Trump in the estimation of voters (which was the last thing she attempted) and then spent the rest of the election pretending the news was about her rather than about the election.
In short, good move Fox News.
LOL!
Looks like we’ll be getting Tucker Carlson in prime time!
Good riddance!
Katie Couric part II.
That was sentence two. Read sentence one. ;)
Who?..................
“Tucker Carlson.
He’s the best one Fox has and should be given the 9 p.m. slot.”
Ditto, that.
An apt comparison.
the woman is unwatchable at 9pm and was horrible on election nights.. her loud joking, giggling and “great to see you” throughout the shows turned me off
