NBC star Megyn Kelly’s Sunday show will return, but only ‘periodically’
Fox News ^ | March 6, 2018 | Brian Flood

Megyn Kelly’s Sunday night newsmagazine on NBC was originally billed as a weekly program but has been demoted to a program that will air “periodically,” according to a press release sent Tuesday by the network.

"Sunday Night with Megyn Kelly" had an eight-episode run in the summer of 2017 to kick off Kelly’s tour at the Peacock Network before her 9 a.m. ET daily show premiered in the fall. The Sunday show was always scheduled to take a break for NBC’s coverage of “Sunday Night Football” and the Winter Olympics but was expected to return.

NBC News sent a press release touting Kelly’s upcoming hour-long primetime special with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday and media watchdogs were quick to notice a sentence at the end of the release.

“This special marks the return of the weekend primetime newsmagazines Kelly will anchor periodically this spring and summer until football season,” the release stated, adding that it is “dependent on Kelly’s schedule with her weekday morning program.”

Reminds me of the Women’s Olympic Hockey broadcast... some idiot announcer said “This will be these Women’s biggest period ever!”

Ha!

If they really want to stick it to her, they should make her do a retrospective behind the scenes show about the winter Olympics she didn't get to go to.

I think her treatment by the ones running NBC ( into the ground I might add) has more to do with the Jane Fonda interview and the aftermath than the fact that she is not a great talent.

The only reason why she had a some what successful show at FOX is because they sandwiched her between O'Reilly and Hannity.

The establishment media is very loose with the word “star”. First they call Acosta a star, now Kelly. I guess any dim-witted propagandist they can put on TV is a star now.

Fox has changed the title omitting the word star to this:

“NBC demotes Megyn Kelly’s struggling Sunday night show to ‘periodic’ airings only”

Looks like the Fox headline writer got some heat. :)
