New Role Puts Anchor in Fox News Spotlight (Megyn Kelly)

First “America’s Newsroom.” Then “America’s Election Headquarters.” And on Monday, Megyn Kelly will begin anchoring a third all-about-America newscast, “America Live.”

Megyn Kelly, who will be the solo anchor for an afternoon program starting Monday, is a centerpiece of the news side of Fox News.

We’re big on America here at Fox,” Ms. Kelly said in an interview last week.

And America, or at least a big chunk of it, is big on Fox News, which is coming off its highest-rated year ever. That record is largely attributable to right-wing opinion-mongers like Glenn Beck and Bill O’Reilly, whose bluster sometimes distracts from the newscasts that make up Fox’s daytime schedule.

Pretty fair, considering the source.

[Lancey Howard]

Megyn is the greatest news anchor of all time.

[Daisyjane69]

Maybe my eyeballs are going, but that doesn’t look like her at all?

Wonder where my glasses are!

[The Cajun]

Megyn is the greatest news anchor of all time.

Why yes they certainly are!

[Judith Anne]

Agreed. Doesn’t look like Megyn Kelly.

I’ll wait for more votes to come in. If we reach no solid conclusion here, this thread shall be forwarded to the ULTIMATE AUTHORITY on Fox news ladies...my sweetie. Trust me, he’s a trained professional.

LOL :)

I caught a bit of her program yesterday. She’s super high energy and I thought that she needed to slow her delivery down a little. First day jitters maybe. I’m a fan though and think that she’ll iron it out. I wish her success!

I am with y'all. Here is a comparrison;

[Judith Anne]

Thanks. Megyn is much prettier. ;-D

[mazda77]

The good news is she will take on anyone when they start to spin and lie.

[Lancey Howard]

Huh... Yeah, looking at the face, maybe that’s NOT Megyn.

[Judith Anne]

See Megyn’s picture above. I’ve liked her for quite a while, she really keeps up with the opposition, asks pointed questions, and is very bright.

[Daisyjane69]

No worries, my friend.

Trust me...if I forward this thread to my sweetie, he’ll thank you for the picture, regardless. LOL

;)

[Judith Anne]

See, the thing to do is look at the FACE. ;-D

Best interviewer on FNC, IMHO. Tough as nails. Added America Live to my DVR.

[Dahoser]

That’s Lara Logan of CBS.

[Rocky]

Beautiful, smart, and with the right values. One of God’s ultimate creations.

[Lancey Howard]

(Ooops)
That’s a picture of somebody named Lara Logan, a CBS correspondent. Sorry about that.. It came up from a Google search of Megyn Kelly pix. I guess I shoulda had my glasses on.

[iowamark]

That picture is Lara Logan of CBS.

Launcey, I think Dahoser identified your photo..
