Megyn Kelly wants to be the ‘next Oprah’
Page Six ^ | March 9, 2017 | Carlos Greer and Emily Smith

Posted on 03/10/2017 2:44:09 PM PST by TBP

Megyn Kelly grew tired of combative hard news reporting and now wants “to help people the way Oprah did” on her new NBC show, sources tell Page Six.

After signing a deal with NBC worth between $12 million and $15 million, Kelly’s plans for her new show have been shrouded in secrecy.

NBC brass are interviewing executive producers in the hopes that Kelly will debut in September at either 9 or 10 a.m. in front of a live studio audience.

A source told us, “There was a lot of tough news to report on her show at Fox News. A lot of combative interviewing, going after people. Doing that every night was difficult. Megyn feels she has more to offer. She wants to help people the way Oprah did, and do something more positive. She’ll be focusing on issues and bringing in real people as well as celebrities. Plus, she has a sense of humor and she wants to use that.”

Kelly told Variety in 2015, “Barbara Walters has retired, Diane Sawyer left her anchor role. Oprah has moved to the OWN network and is doing a different thing now. So why not me?” The source added, “Megyn will have the Sunday night show on NBC to scratch that itch. That’s where you’ll see the big interviews and stories.”

In short time she will be the next Katie Couric hosting an obscure website production or maybe doing cosmetic infomercials.

Megyn lacks the empathy to be the next Oprah. She’s too self-absorbed. Unless she gets a personality transplant, she will fade into oblivion in 3 - 5 years.

The only thing Megyn Kelly knows how to do, is help herself.

Is she committed enough to ramp up her daily caloric intake to exceed 20,000? That’s probably one minimum requirement.

She already is! A washed up has-been that thinks she’s a lot smarter than what she is and nobody listens to. Megyn....you’ve arrived!

Exactly. Maybe she could be a porn star.
If she grew her long hair back.
