As NBC negotiates the fate of Megyn Kelly, the network has already started scrubbing traces of the disgraced host in the wake of her blackface backlash.
Page Six is told that execs had long planned to feature Kelly heavily in its midterm-election coverage Tuesday night, and even sent out a press release before the scandal broke announcing that Kelly would front the broadcast alongside NBC heavyweights Lester Holt of the networks Nightly News, Today host Savannah Guthrie and Meet the Press anchor Chuck Todd.
But on Monday, NBC put out a video ad spot that deep-sixed Kelly from the lineup, showing only Holt, Guthrie and Todd at the desk for its The Vote: Americas Future special live broadcast.
NBC News declined to comment, but a network insider told us that Kelly is not going to be part of election-night coverage.

Was she going to go "black-face"? Sorry, I couldn't help myself :o)
Poor widdle nbc; I guess they will just have to borrow Whoopie Goldberg from abc for their "unbiased" fake news election coverage for the night.

That is the only legimate reason to watch the alphabet channels.
Election night when the dims lose big..is a joyous time on the propaganda network.
And then reliving the magical moments on video clips..life truly is good.

There will always be a spot for Megyn.
I hear Katie Colic is in need of a Co-host over on the Grand Rapids City Cable channel Late Saturday Night slot.
If that doesn’t work out, rumor has it Laz is taking applications for a sheet turner and foot tender.

She figured out how to retire at 48 with $70 million dollars for the final two years of work. Ill bet she doesnt even own an alarm clock anymore. Shes some sort of genius.
nothing left for her now but spend her money, get old, and remember the good old days.

Unfortunately “bleeding out of her whatever” is too long to be a keyword even if you remove the spaces.

If she was meant to be the face, you could have counted on her becoming the ass.
The public lucked out...
Now, on to the next ass.

“Me-Gyn” - The most descriptive name ever!
It’s all she was ever really all about.
