Glenn Greenwald wants to make this perfectly clear: He finds Megyn Kelly’s views “viscerally repellent.”
But the crusading privacy journalist has plenty of complimentary things to say about how the Fox prime-time host conducts herself on air.
“She has a lower tolerance for being fed incoherent tripe from her own side than the average cable news TV host,” Greenwald said in an email. “Most Fox and MSNBC hosts treat even
Recognition has come from viewers — she often comes in a close second to ratings king Bill O’Reilly — and from the press, too. Kelly, 43, was the only woman in media to be included in Time magazine’s 100 most influential people list this year.
Watch just a few of Kelly’s faceoffs and it’s not hard to figure out she was a lawyer before becoming a television journalist.
“She’s a very good questioner, and you can tell she’s an attorney,” Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.), a former federal prosecutor who is now leading the House inquiry into Benghazi, said in an interview. “I think you always bolster your credibility when you show objectivity and when you are an equal opportunity questioner … No one is your client, you’re not protecting anyone. Obviously, when you’re attractive, you can get away with things that ugly people like me can’t get away with.”
First of all the topic you are calling "hijacking" IS "this thread," literally.
Secondly, there is a "nuance" FReepers need to remember at all times, and that is that the legal mechanism whereby your hated homosexuals would be rounded up is the SAME legal mechanism whereby conservatives, Christians, veterans, gun owners, anti-abortionists or anyone else who stand against the Left would be rounded up. Because the legal mechanism DOESN'T CARE who or what it's subject is - on purpose. SO THAT conservatives who hate homosexuals will go along with it until it gets activated.
Not to mention that, of all the subjects that can be "nuanced" or "hyperbolized," mass murder isn't one of them. And proof of that is what I pointed out in my first reply - try replacing "homosexuals" with "Jews" or "blacks" with a reference to legalized mad murder. Go ahead - any takers? After all, "it used to be the law." So what's wrong with a little nuance? A little hyperbole? No?
Not only no, but hell no. And everyone knows why, clear as a bell.
Shannon Bream should have her own show...
I don't see anything about homosexuality in there...... You two went there, nobody else.
Interesting, maybe that's why Ted Baxter has recently taken a new approach to Obama...rather than being a ass kisser extraordinaire...
He's been ripping him good lately
I personally rarely watch him...but one of my daily customers gives me the BO rundown every morning...
You miss Dhue ?
Me too !
Bwahahahaha!!
Clearly, English is not your first language!
Yup...and hotter than Megyn...
I believe she is now on “The Blaze” channel reading news for Glenn Beck. Not sure if she has her own show or if she just appears from time to time to report it. I think she had a long struggle with alcoholism and is finally doing okay....
“At least 3 and it might be 4 now, and she is still smokinn.”
I believe it was reported several weeks ago the she is expecting her third child, but if true she’s keeping her baby bump under the table, so to speak.
The issue of advocating mass murder was brought up in the thread. Not in the title, not in the article - in the thread. And wherever the advocation of mass murder is brought up, I will challenge and reject it. That is just something you’re going to have to deal with. I know it’s hard, especially when you are being distracted by Megyn Kelly’s bosoms, but with a few short months of therapy you can learn some coping mechanisms that should prevent requiring any increase in your OCD meds. Best of luck.
Remember watching Major Garrett part of the team covering President Reagan's funeral.
He referred to her as Megan Kelly and I thought he had screwed up.
By that you mean you'd make the same nuanced hyperbole about the mass murder of Jews and Blacks as you did about homosexuals, right?
Love ya, Megyn.
I’m 71 and in wonderful health. A few days a week I visit my local favorite pub for a few pints. The place has a bunch of flat screens behind the bar with a variety of stuff.
There is usually one or more tuned to a cooking channel. One of my buds made a comment that made me feel my age. “It seems like yesterday that we would sit here and talk about women, nooky, and sports. Now we watch cooking shows, exchange recipes, and clip coupons.”
Not by me and sorry but Megyn bosoms are just not that much of a distraction to me. Wow, talk about projection. Dude, you need serious help, I hope you find it. Do not post to me again. I seriously question your conservative/moral principles. Good luck to you.
My point is not something you would even remotely understand. Because obviously, if "several major belief systems advocate" the mass murder of homosexuals, then there is certainly nothing objectional to it - right? Especially amongst American conservatives discussing the proper role of government under the Constitution - right? Thanks for clearing things up with that reality check. After all, the acceptability of the mass murder of homosexuals was settled by Sharia law and the Nazis long ago. I just must have gotten lost in the nuance of the issue.'
You're one confused individual. Mass murder is a leftist sequela, not conservative. Perhaps, when your hysteria subsides, we can have a conversation about the inter-connection of Sharia, NAZIism and leftist thought.
Imagine my despair.
Uh, contrasting them was, in fact, my point, since mass murder was being promoted on this thread as a "reasonable" expression of "nuanced hyperbole."
And you want to talk about "inter-connections"? LOL, spare me.
Megyn was on O’Reily’s last week, and she said that although she used to think Bill was on old fuddy duddy on some social issues, she is starting to see things his way, especially now that she is raising all those children.
You know how that Churchil saying goes: If you’re not a lib by 20, you have no heart, if you’re not a conservative by 40, you have no brain.
