After Kelly’s controversial and much-hyped interview with Alex Jones tanked by again failing to beat out reruns of 60 Minutes and America’s Funniest Home Videos, New York radio host Mark Simone tweeted on Monday that NBC is trying to unload Kelly and convince Fox News to take her back.
But a high-ranking Fox News source told Breitbart News that there is “no way” Kelly could come back to the network. Quite simply, the source told Breitbart News, Kelly “would not be welcomed back.”
Simone also suggested that if Kelly becomes more toxic and her ratings tank even more, “NBC will have to take her off the network,” and “if they are stuck with her, they’ll give her an MSNBC show.”
NBC reportedly invested nearly $20 million a year to bring Kelly to the network, and NBC’s investment has not paid any dividends at all. After her interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Kelly was mocked for being way out of her league.
Her interview with Jones did not have any news value and may have damaged NBC’s and her reputation more than it helped.
Yet despite all of the hype, Kelly’s interview with Jones still flopped. 60 Minutes and America’s Funniest Home Videos reruns even beat Kelly’s show by nearly 40 percent in the coveted 18 to 49-year-old demographic, as Concha noted.
A television executive told CNN over the weekend that NBC’s “fundamental mistake” was thinking that Kelly was actually a “superstar.” NBC executives have already reportedly determined that viewers are not going to tune in to Sunday Night with Megyn Kelly just to watch Kelly and are “freaking out” over the “ratings disaster” that is Kelly.

Too funny!
Who says she want to go back to FOX ??
That network has screwed the pooch in spectacular fashion.
must be the lifestyle and the money
Megyn Kelly, the Colin Kirkpatrick of network journalism.
The Murdoch boys, Dumb and Dumber will ruin Fox regardless...
Maybe she can learn how to cook and be a good mother to her children? Or is that too sexist?
#63—Good one!
top kek
unforunately you cant turn a professional high class hooker into a housewife. Magyn has jumped the shark there...
Those two stink on ice! They will destroy the Fox News money machine.
That's probably where the dunces at NBC went wrong. They thought trashing Trump and keeping a stream of Trump critics on his Fox show night after night was a positive and would have broad appeal at NBC. They failed to notice what a self-absorbed, often unlikable winch she had become during his constant auditioning for a job at one of the legacy networks.
But, they gave her a job anyway. I know most here predicted just what seems to be unfolding with Meagain at NBC.
Kelly came down with a serious case of Trump Derangement Syndrome
We made you, Megan.
And we can break you.
Guess NBC just wants to stop the bleeding........
lol
Agree.
Her third marriage will blow up.
Yes, I'm sure Rachel could come with some creative ideas as to what could be done with her...
You’re not wrong.
Out of the eyes.
She would make the perfect villain in a soap opera.
I think she'd be just right for the weekly talent shows at Peaceful Acres............
