Golden Girl Megyn Kelly vs. The Most Hated Man in American Media
American Thinker ^ | June 18, 2017 | Peter Barry Chowka

Posted on 06/18/2017 6:56:56 AM PDT by libstripper

This was not how it was supposed to be. The most hated man in American media has dealt a serious and potentially knockout blow to the career of the woman who thought she was all set to take him on and proceed unimpeded on the fast track to maybe becoming the next Oprah.

The battle pitting the two well-known personalities commenced two weeks ago when Megyn Kelly, the golden girl of 21st century TV infotainment, started pursuing controversial talk show host and Infowars founder Alex Jones as the next big interview “get” for her new prime time NBC television network news magazine show, Sunday Night with Megyn Kelly.

I don’t care for Jones. Most people don’t know who Jones is. The only reason for Kelly to interview Jones is to pull out the most outrageous things he says, dig up his most inflammatory statements in the past, then paint anyone right of Chairman Mao with “crazy, evil, dangerous, right-winger brush.

The left wing already hates the woman and I’m not sure they can turn loose that grudge.

The right wing already knows she is cold and willing to hang them out to dry for a few extra viewers.

Jones as stated he is going to release the full interview tapes. This leaves Kelly with some difficult math. She may be forced into doing a straight broadcast which could force the left into full-tilt and get her fired.

If she does the hit piece, it could end up as another embarrassing event on the NBC brand like the exploding truck bit years ago. The left still won’t forgive her for ever being on Fox, the right will keep seeing her as a shallow hit-piece journalist and the middle would probably leave her causing her to get fired.

I suspect Ms. Kelly engineered a no win situation and the end of her career.

I am not a conspiracy person, but the official report is inadequate. I had never read it until today. Adam Lanza took great pains to cover his tracks for no reason that I can fathom. There is no motive given for the shooting. As you said there are no surveillance videos from the school, nor any cell phone video or images. There are no fingerprints listed in the official report except one mention that fingerprints were collected.

I don't see evidence for other shooters. The report dismisses the extra weapons and sweatshirts. Bu inside the school I don't see evidence for other shooters than Lanza. What I do see is a great potential for other involvement starting with the mother shot four times in the head. There is a great deal of destroyed evidence of Lanza's interactions over the internet. His mother's death also precluded gathering statements of any other interactions he and she had.

Jones is a joke. And is meant to be a joke. In his child custody case just two months ago, he claimed to be a “performance artist” “playing a character”. He isn’t meant to be taken seriously.

Alex Jones performs a necessary function for the right (I was going to say evil, but I don’t think he is).

99% of conspiracy theories are just that—theories, but 1% aren’t theories, they are facts.

Unfortunately, people are afraid to touch the 1% because they are afraid they will be smeared as a nut job. Jones isn’t.

A year ago, if someone told you something called the deep state was going to attempt to overthrow the next president, you’d call them a conspiracy nut. What would you call them today?

Or if someone told you the Hillary campaign was paying people to go to Republican rallies and instigate violence (so they could blame it on the Republicans) you would have said?

These are things Jones was ahead of the curve on.

I suspect the real reason for the criticism for the left is Alex Jones has created a decent sized news service on a shoe string.

It’s a YouTube channel. I suspect his studio is nothing more than one or two rooms in a house. Yet, he has become influential enough that a mainstream news channel is recognizing him.

If Jones can do it, why can’t anyone else?

Highlighting Jone’s success might give others ideas.

That picture is a decade old.

There’s big difference between 36 & 46.

And 50, which she will be soon.

Donald Trump was the most hated man BY American media. Since President Trump is not in the media business, he does not qualify. 8>)

Like all women before her, she’s going to hit that wall that looms in front of her. And with a trajectory and velocity unlike most of those other women the results are going to be ugly.

Jones has a wide variety of media presentations on his website, which often highlight his show. Every once in a while he does do some performance art in order to press his point to his audience.

Why would you believe anything the MSM says about someone who is trying so hard to expose their lying, manipulative agenda? Jones isn’t perfect, but anyone discussing him really needs to check him out for themselves.

i agree. sometimes he’s over the top, but he and his crew bring up topics that MSM won’t (or dont want to) touch.

Yeah the murky answer in the article made me wonder. I dont really watch Jones much so Im just not sure. I am a fan of Paul Watson youtube videos though (who is also associated with InfoWars).

Why were zero children transported to area hospitals?

Because not a single one of the victims survived...Everyone who got shot died right there at the school, they said...

Megyn is like the majority of people in Hollywood: Sleep with the RIGHT person/persons, you end up a celebrity, sleep with the wrong ones, you end up a stripper/escort....She apparently go it right enough to put her in position, but her lack of talent and lack of attractiveness under the microscope are only taking her so far.

You don’t understand basic mass shooting force reaction 101. Cops don’t declare an individual dead, doctors do. Even children with signicant wounds would be transported to a hospital. The triage staging areas show zero patients... Zero. Let that sink in.
