Many Fox News watchers lately seem to be mouthing the same thing; ‘What’s the deal with Megyn Kelly?’
Her show has materialized into the Trump People’s Court, with her as a newspeak Judge Wapner, passing death sentences on the nightly myriad of Trump news stories, spokespeople and pro-Donald pundits.
The show is sponsored by Megyn Kelly’s out of control ego, which if bottled, could power every village, town and city on the East Coast.
Under the pretense of appearing ‘fair and balanced,’ Ms. Kelly is anything but that. Every minute of her hour long show is devoted to one mission; destroying Donald Trump.
A perfect example is last night’s segment where Ms. Kelly interviewed former Miss Universe, Alicia Machado. Megyn Kelly was practically frothing at the mouth as Ms. Machado made every allegation in the world against Mr. Trump.
Ms. Kelly failed to mentions Ms. Machado’s possible involvement as a getaway driver in a 1997 murder and her alleged threats she made to a judge in Venezuela.
Every opportunity is spent bashing Trump. Ms. Kelly blames Trump for everything from the Manhattan traffic to current gas prices.
Every Trump sound bite is examined and verbally drawn and quartered by Ms. Kelly and her coterie of Democratic pundits and Never Trumpers.
Every Trump act is chopped and marinated and thrown into Megyn Kelly’s verbal Cuisinart to be ripped to shreds.
Every Trump triumph is gas lighted and somehow turned into a Trump failure.
Every Trump supporter and Trump campaign representative is grilled and interrogated as if they were prisoners of the Gestapo in a medieval dungeon.
I find it amusing that one of the most watched anti-Trump news shows runs every night on the nation’s only conservative network, Fox News.
Sandwiched between Bill O’Reilly who likes Trump, but treats him like a kid in Father O’Reilly’s sophomore Jesuit high school classroom and Sean Hannity, who hero worships Trump, it’s more than odd that Ms. Kelly’s show is a 60 minute anti-Trump advertisement every night.
One wonders what dirt Megyn Kelly has on the Fox News leadership that they allow her to run amok every night.
During the primaries, Megyn Kelly’s dislike for Trump was evident, but understandable, since they had both bickered during the first debate. Also, there were 16 other candidates out there in GOP Land.
But, now, during the general election, her open hatred of Trump is more than hard to take. Is she rooting for Hillary? If one wants to listen to a news anchor destroy Trump, why not turn on CNN or MSNBC.
Megyn Kelly no doubt has delusions of grandeur that are apparently higher than her throne on Fox News.
But, to many viewers, her attitude and her treatment of Mr. Trump are becoming unbearable.
Even worse than her careening off the cliff ego is the fact that Ms. Kelly might be harboring the biggest secret of all at Fox News; she may indeed be voting for Hillary Clinton.
How long will Megyn Kelly’s reign of terror on network news be allowed to continue? She’s turning off most Trump voters and her only possible viewers stem from the Never Trumpers and Democrats who enjoy watching the thin blond chick with the biker mullet attack the mega billionaire at 6 PM every night.
Megyn Kelly hates Trump because Trump is the kind of Type A personality, macho, self-made man who sees right through her veneer of feminist bravado and views her for what she really is, a legend in her own mind.
Thank you.
Would be so nice to have a fair and balanced 9 PM report.
‘I get it that Megyn Kelly is anti-Trump. But, where in
this article is there a single iota of evidence that
Kelly is pro-Hillary?’
It’s a binary choice. Kelly turns her show nightly into a Trump bash fest. If she trashed Trump one night and Hillary the next night, it would be a tossup; we’d have no idea who she supported.
If Kelly went after Hillary every night, night after night, she wouldn’t need to announce that she favored Trump. We could legitimately draw that inference.
While I don’t claim that Kelly goes after Hillary as
much as she does Trump she does go after Hillary
enough to throw a monkey wrench into any assertion
that she is a Clinton voter in my book.
What are the biggest issues Kelly has raised re Hillary? How often has she hammered them? (And when does she find the time, since she became, following the first debste, OBSESSED with attacking Trump?)
So, it is the size of the issues and the regularity?
Too tricky by half in my book. Get back to me when
Hillary grants Kelly a pre-election interview. I want
to count all the slow pitch soft balls.
You claim Kelly has gone after hillary, but you can’t cite even a couple of examples? And yes, of course it’s the frequency. If Kelly is ranting and raving against Trump EVERY NIGHT, when does she attack Hillary?
Frankly, debating with you is not worth enough of my
time to do research anything prior to this evening.
I have witnessed Kelly going after Hillary on numerous
occasions. If you do not believe me then I really don’t
give a shit but I suspect you have seen some of it
yourself.
One thing that frustrates some of us Donald supporters
is when he attacks Bill Clinton as a womanizer. He
needs to focus his attacks on how Hillary worked to
ruin Billy’s victims. Everybody seems to know that
except Trump. Well, low and behold, tonite I flip the
channel to FOX and there was Megyn with two guests.
One guest represented Trump and the other, Hillary.
Part of the issue at hand was the treatment of women.
Megyn made sure on more than one occasion to stress that
the issue is not Bill’s transgressions but how Hillary
worked to destroy his victims. Do you understand how
the media wants to cloud that aspect? Hell, even Trump
keeps missing the point. Yet, here is evil Megyn Kelly
setting the accurate terms of debate which is a plus
for Trump.
‘but I suspect you have seen some of it
yourself.’
What would make you suspect that? You possess zero evidence that I have seen any such thing. In fact, I have NEVER seen Kelly going after Hillary—never, not ONCE, ever. That is why I asked for examples. You defensively interpreted being asked to support your claim as a debate. It isn’t. It’s simply trying to establish the facts—something you cannot or will not do.
Your lone example is unimpressive. I note that it occurred only AFTER Hillary started using direct quotes from Kelly to attack Trump. That no doubt embarrassed the unhinged Trump hater sufficiently to give you your modest example from her most recent show. As I said: unimpressive.
You appear to have no other examples. In that case, I simply note that as hominem is no substitute for facts.
I believe that you stated Kelly’s show is a nightly
Trump “bash fest”. If that is the case then one could
assume that you watch the show on a nightly basis
otherwise, how could you make such a blanket assertion?
Did you miss the program on Oct 23,2015 when Kelly was
nailing Hillary on Benghazi issues? Did you miss the show
on July 5 and 6 of this year when she led off with
stories about Clinton emails? How about this past Sept 12
when she discussed Hillary’s health? These are not the
only times Kelly went after Clinton. You wanted
examples and if you Googled ‘Megyn Kelly on Hillary
Clinton’ you would see the same thing as I did.
Here is the thing....you are not going to buy into any
of the above examples because you aligned yourself with
a poorly written article which failed to explain away
the fact that Megyn Kelly also criticizes Clinton.
The title of the article “Is Megyn Kelly Voting for
Hillary Clinton? “ could have been “Why Megyn Kelly is
Not Voting for Donald Trump”. Based on the article
content that would have been preferable.
Clearly, you are an intelligent person. Why you
would defend that poor excuse of an article is
puzzling.
If I claimed to watch the unhinged Trump hater nightly, you would have a point.
But to be hobest, after Kelly’s two shameful, nasty, repulsive, witchy and embarrassingly infantile debate-moderator spectacles, I can’t imagine anyone other than fellow Trump-haters watching the potty-mouthed leftist.
HOWEVER, I read nightly reviews of Kelly’s Trump-bash-fest on two different online forums. What I have noticed is that no one EVER posts something like, “Wow—Megyn is taking a break from trashing Trump and is actually going after Hillary.”
I NEVER see that.
All I ever see is, “She’s attacking Trump...AGAIN.”
It would be interesting to find out whether, on the three shows you mentioned, Kelly included a segment or two trashing Trump—for ‘balance.’
In any event, you did offer at least a smattering of evidence that Kelly occasionally notices that Hillary isn’t Snow White. Mighty...big of her.
Here’s what I notice. In her ultra-rare criticisms of Hillary, Kelly cites a couple of the worst offenses committed by Mrs. Bill. I. e.: Kelly focuses on actual crimes.
It’s a world away from her relentless, VICIOUS onslaught on Trump. I’ll explain.
When known liar and SERIAL slanderer Michelle Fields FALSELY (as is her habit) accused Trump’s campaign manager of grabbing her, Hillary and Kelly trumpeted the story as 1, true, and 2, evidence of Trump’s war on women, NONSTOP. They went wall to wall with a LIE for days, if not weeks, trying to destroy Trump via yet another false accusation from a person with a known history of making them. Disgusting!
When Trump noted that a judge who holds Mexican citizenship and who belongs to the rabidly anti-American racist group, La Raza, was ruling against him 100% of the tine, Kelly and Hillary LOST THEIR JOINT MINDS in their shared Trump-hate hysteria. It was stomach turning. If possible, Kelly’s brainless antics in that case topped even the stench of her debate moderator performances. If possible...
As a conservative, I find it simply stunning that you are defending this hate-filled individual. If she hated a leftist liberal as much as she hates Trump, I would find even that revolting. But her feverish, neurotic animosity [understatemnet] is reserved for the GOP nominee.
Incredible.
Ps: if I claimed I watched Kelly’s nightly wallow in the mud, l wouldn’t have had to ask you for examples re Hillary, would I?
Think about it.
So, what you have to say about Kelly is largely based
on reviews you read? You don’t even bother to see what
she has to say about Hillary on your own? How so very
objective of you! Ever heard of critical analysis? You
know, I criticize liberal acquaintances because they
hate Limbaugh based almost only on what liberal journalists
have to say about him. I see you suffer the same malady.
Sad.
Let me flip the script. You list things that Kelly has
attacked Trump about. Now, we both know that various
hosts on other channels fawn over Hillary. Suppose
you give some examples of Megyn Kelly fawning
over Hillary Clinton like they do elsewhere. Take
your time.
My point from the start is that the article failed
to cite any positive evidence that Kelly is voting
for Clinton as the title ponders. Might Kelly be,
in fact, voting for Clinton? Of course the
answer is yes. However, bashing Trump is not the
only evidence in play to show where Kelly’s vote
is headed or that she is even planning on voting.
Personally, I neither like nor dislike Kelly but
on occasion I will call bullshit when I see it.
In this case I criticize the article not so much
for what it says but for what it doesn’t say.
PS: You might indeed ask me to produce evidence
regarding Hillary whether or not you are a
regular Kelly viewer with the hope that I will
back down. I don’t roll that way.
Here is the point. Out of hundreds of shows, you were able to cite three in which Kelly criticized hillary. You contend that because I don’t watch every show, but rather rely on hundreds of fellow conservatives to keep me appraised, I...what?
What exactly are you saying? That I am mistaken? That night after night when my fellow conservatives note for the record that Kelly is bashing Trump AGAIN, they’re all lying? They’re all confused? She’s actually saying something positive about Trump, or taking note of Hillary’s criminal activity more than once in a blue moon?
Since you missed my point the first time, I’ll reiterate it. In Hillary you have a criminal who has committed multiple felonies and actively cost the lives of four Americans. She is the most corrupt individual who’s ever run for POTUS. As SoS, Hillary’s never ending quest for self agrandizement has already cost thousands if not millions of innocent lives worldwide, and suffering quantifiable only by God.
In response, Kelly takes note of the mastodon in the room once every four or five months. The rest of the time she lacetates Trump for the latest nitpicking, Dem-Hillary-manufactured minutiae/SMEAR/outright lie.
And you find this fair???
You find this objective???
You look at that record and say Kelly is as likely to vote Trump as Hillary?????????
You. Cant. Be. Serious.
PS: the only way you can claim I already knew about Kelly’s rare—exeedingly rare—forays into mentioning Hillary’s world-class criminality but needed to ask you anyway is by ASSUMING I’m a liar.
Kelly fawning over hillary:
Fox News host Megyn Kelly ... told THR in this week’s issue that her dream interview would be with Hillary Clinton. Kelly picked the potential Democratic presidential candidate over such popular, hard-to-get choices as Pope Francis and Kim Jong Un, telling THR, “I respect her accomplishments. I see the glass ceiling that she shattered. So it would not be some slugfest, but it would not be any thrill up the leg, either.”
“There’s a lot to cover with her … I want to talk to her about a lot of things,” she said. “And I want to ask her about gender, for one thing. For example, what does she think: Is it time to have a female president, and does it have to be her, and how important is it to her to see a woman get into the White House, irrespective of party?”
And showing off her intellectual chops:
‘Kelly also shared her pick for the most powerful person in New York: Mayor Bill de Blasio.’
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/megyn-kelly-dream-interview-hillary-787515
Ahhhhh....hahahahahaha!!!
Here is a “journalist” with a big ego trying to score an
interview with a female candidate party nominee after
having criticized her regarding Benghazi, pay to play,
email scandals among other things. I would think that a
big fat Hillary ass would need to be kissed. The fact
Kelly seems to be gushing over Hillary is only proof
that she thinks that Hillary will nix an interview due
to past reporting.
And, Kelly picks the mayor as the most powerful person in New York?
How old are you? More importantly, how old do you think that I am?
I keep trying to give you an out by pointing out
the article about Kelly is weak. You could take
it and run. You really think it is a good article?
My turn to be unimpressed........
Your reply wasn’t even coherent. It’s Saturday niggt; some people relax. You may be one of them. If so, time to stop posting.
Otherwise, redo your post so that it makes sense. As it is, it’s part mishmash, part attempted—and failed—insults.
Btw, do you agree with Ms It’s-All-About-Gender Kelly re de Blasio?
“It’s Saturday niggt”
Yes, it is Saturday “niggt” and coherence is of utmost
importance. Let me try to help you understand what I was
saying. Megyn Kelly wants an interview with Hillary
Clinton because she is her party’s nominee for the
most powerful position in the world. Anybody who does
interviews would want the same thing. Kelly is not
a paid poster at FR (sorry that slipped out). You
posted some complimentary things that Kelly stated
about Hillary. Why would you do that? I surmise that it
is because you want to show that Megyn is a Hillary
supporter. The reality is that Kelly correctly knows
that with her history of criticism of the Clintons she
needs to be careful how she handles the old windbag
if she expects to secure an interview. Don’t expect
Clinton to grant an interview to Kelly unless she is
way ahead or way behind in the polls.
As to the most powerful man in New York, well, if you
are talking NYC the mayor is always a safe bet. Who
should Kelly have mentioned, Carlos Danger?
Do bears...oh, never mind. Anyone who thinks otherwise is delusional.
