Megyn Kelly Is Writing a Tell-All Book About Matt Lauer's 'Today' Scandal
Closer ^ | 1/3/2018 | Closer Staff

Posted on 01/03/2018 9:22:56 AM PST by simpson96

When the sexual misconduct scandal involving Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein exploded in October, Megyn Kelly had an idea. "She started thinking about writing a book," an insider recently told Life & Style. She felt she had unique insight since before joining NBC and the Today show in 2017, she’d spent years at Fox News, which had been embroiled in its own sexual harassment scandals — including some she knew about firsthand. Then, when Megyn’s Today colleague Matt Lauer, 60, was fired in late November after his misconduct was exposed, "that lit a fire under her," the source shared.

Now Megyn’s prepared to expose more bombshells. "She wasn’t Matt’s colleague for very long, but long enough to gather enough information about him to fill a book, which is exactly what she’s planning to do," the insider told Life & Style. This book will delve into "Matt’s secret life at NBC, his dirty deeds, and horrible antics with women." Megyn, 47, is already fielding offers from publishers, the insider revealed, and publishing expert David Johnson says a tell-all could command a $10 million payday. "Megyn won’t hold back any details," noted the insider. "She wants to put an end to decades of sweeping these secrets under the rug."

She’s found a way to get attention - dish dirt on others. She did it at Fox and she’s doing it at NBC. I hope those around her keep this in mind. She may be your BFF today but tomorrow she’ll be writing a book and giving interviews about you.

She could say it in one sentence for free if she wanted to “help other women.” Either he hit on her, did something disgusting in front of her or to her, or, worse for her, wasn’t interested. Either way, that is how you help women by coming forward. Writing a bleeping book is for HER to soak up more attention and cash.

Yes, of course, take advantage of the situation for her own gain, and then afterwards wonder why everyone there hates her.

Never mind that a principled person would resign and go to work somewhere else that doesn't condone the conduct in the first place.

So she knew all about it at the time.....

..but was too busy taking down Republicans (one in particular) to do or say anything about it until now.

Okay.

I would be pissed if I worked with her. She strolls in for a few months and can write a book with a decent advance?

That is as obscene as what Matt did.

What does Me-Again know that we don’t already know?
She has only been there 6 months.

She knows how to ingratiate herself even more than she already has! Maybe she thinks she’s going to take over at NBC and let her adversaries go.

As if either Matt Lauer or Megyn Kelly shall ever be relevant again.

About this time in a failing career, their agent gets them a spot in next season's "Dancing With The Stars", trying to get them back in the spotlight. (i.e. Florence Henderson, Charo, Mr T, Chris Kattan...)

“that lit a fire under her,” the source shared.

If only that were true.

I used to watch Megyn on Fox, and (even though she had some good guests and info) was always good for a few wince-inducing moments when she acted as if she were a giggly school girl.

Martha, with her poise, professional character, and genuineness is such a refreshing contrast.

I wonder if she will go into details about what and how she did Brit Hume?

I hope her kids grow to know their Mom was a two bit scank that screwed her way to fame.

Yeah Me-agyn, tell it...

It might be better for Madam Me to read Dale Carnegie instead of writing anything at this point . . .

I was thinking the same thing, the guy worked there for over 20 years, and Meghan been there less than 1 year, ans she’s the one to right the tell all book, LOL.

You’re right! Meagain is very much the wrong mouth ($👄$) piece to be delivering any NBC tell-all on Matt Laur, for cash, and must already know her contract and future, there, is in jeopardy. I don’t see either, as you say, how this secures her contract or endears her to the NBC crews there. She sabotages herself and her job, irretrievably, one would think.
