Speaking for myself, I believe we owe quite a lot to O’Reilly in depressing both Kristin Powers and Megyn Kelly, leading to their anger, fall and subsequent desire to depart FOX News.
I think Megyn was displeased also, of course, with HANNITY, but it started with her fury at O’Reilly, some time ago, around the time she was no longer appearing on his show, for a few minutes conversation, on a regular basis.
Kristin Powers and O’Reilly practically came to a spitting battle on his program. She was visibly angry. After that, she may have made another appearance, to finish out her contract, but then she was gone.
I think Kristin Powers was hired because she knew someone. Unless she was a personal favorite of Ailes. I don’t think she participated in the law suit.
She was undeniably the most naïve of all the pundits. She was ill prepared. I think if she read FR she could have been more lucid, but for the most part she came across as a real light weight, with one exception.
I saw her on day on a panel discussing abortion. She was four square pro life and very very articulate.
Krauthammer often said he was waiting of her conversion to our side.
I think she would be a dynamite proponent of conservative views, but she’s mired in this liberal dogma crapola.
