"..So maybe I am naive, but I really think that she is more sinned against than sinning in this whole kerfluffle that led to her getting fired from Fox. That is, as I piece this story together from NYC sources, her newly hired self-declared "super agent," John Ferret--oops, I mean, Ferriter--convinced Kiran that she was destined to be the next Katie Couric (same initials, makes perfect sense!), and so got Kiran to go along with his sneaky plan, which he might not have fully spelled out to her.
That is, Chetry might not have really understood all of what Ferriter had in mind--as detailed here at TCG last night. Specifically, Ferriter wanted Fox to fire Gretchen Carlson as the weekday "Fox & Friends" co-host, and put in Chetry instead. The arrogance of Ferriter's plan is kind of breathtaking, although as Cable Gamers know, the idea that Chetry would pull an "All About Eve" on Carlson--who is herself adorable and popular--was stopped cold by Fox News chief Roger Ailes.
But of course, we are all ultimately responsible for our actions. Ferriter is Chetry's agent, after all, not her Svengali. At least that's what I think. .."
