Big difference is that, when it comes to Megyn Kelly, she wasn’t told what to say about republicans or even democrats. She can bash either side, if they have issues that need to be addressed.

On the democrat side with their preferred networks’ coverage, the hosts/reporters/pundits, are all lined up to support whatever the issue is, and whoever the candidate is. IOW, liberals in the media had better follow the liberal party line. On the republican side, we better not insist that the media support our party line.

We are supposed to be the party of the facts and truth, and Megyn wasn’t supporting any one candidate, nor was she picking out Trump to undo his campaign or to get back at him for past indiscretions. Whatever the issues with Trump, Megyn just brought them out. Can’t bash someone for discussing or questioning the veracity of a candidate.

YOu obviously did not watch the debate.

Bloody Kelly Megyn, or whatever her name is,
took 30% of the debate time lecturing against
Mr. Trump. She follows orders from above,
and the biased moderators ate up more than a third
of the ambush-’debate’ time.

FOX “News” is a criminal enterprise.

No, she can’t - even if you think she herself is not pro Dem. She can’t get Hillary on her show if Hillary doesn’t trust her to pitch softballs. Hillary doesn’t have to, because Clinton groupie reporters are a dime a dozen.
Objectively, grilling Republicans on non-policy questions - practically irrespective of what issue you think a particular Republican has - is unfair if Hillary is going to get a pass on her cavalcade of issues.

Objectively speaking, it is therefore unconscionable to eat up 30% of the time, keeping the audience from hearing what they came for - substance.
