Petition to Ban Megyn Kelly from Hosting Future Debates

Posted on 08/07/2015 5:38:03 PM PDT by ElainaVer

​Dears News Corps.,

Megyn Kelly apparently finds the state of our union amusing and "fun", whereas the viewers (our fellow citizens) deserve a much more serious moderator.

In addition, she had a clear agenda to attack Donald Trump, by tenaciously clinging to his past rather than his vision for the future. She focused on Trump personally, rather than politically. Ultimately, she did not not live up to the "fair and balanced" slogan at Fox News and News Corporation.

While her disdain for Mr. Trump was evident, this peititon is a call for truly fair and balanced coverage of ALL candidates. Thus, Megyn Kelly should be barred from hosting or moderating all future Republican Presidential Debates.

Please support this position by signing it as well as adding your reasons to bar Megyn Kelly from hosting or moderating any future Republican Debates (she is better of hosting a ​D​emocratic ​D​ebate at this unprofessional level).

if a Republican can’t outwit a media hack then they should go home.

What the IDIOT ‘Moderators’ Do not ever seem to understand these days is the DEBATE is not about ‘YOU’ - it is about the candidates.

Megyn Kelly’s EGO is too big to be a moderator ...

And I think a loud continued campaign will get her replaced... FoxNews wants RATINGS ... angry viewers do not make good ratings nor good PR...

TWEET Megyn Keely out of the SEAT of Moderator... Use all media to oust her.

Why are we blaming Kelly for a corporate decision to target Trump. Murdoch wants Trump out. He wants Jeb Bush in. This isn’t Rocket Science.

Megyn Kelly didn’t just spring these question on Fox Management the day of the debates. They were kicked around, reviewed and approved over the last month.

Nevertheless, Megyn has now joined O’Reilly on our official household Do Not Watch list. In fact I’ve been instructed by the Household Boss to stop recording Megyn’s show. She doesn’t want me cheating with Megyn when she’s gone in the evening.

The only reasons the people are upset is because Kelly and Wallace were there to ASK questions to the candidates and for the public to HEAR their answers....

There were a lot of questions about this government and how they would run it that the public needs to know....

Some of the people don't have cable, either because they can't afford it or because they are off the grid...they are just as interested in hearing real questions and answers from the candidates as those are that have cable...

Wallace and Kelly brought their ‘horse and pony’ show to the debate (debate is debatable) in their own opinion...at this particular event, we don't want to hear their opinions, we want to hear the candidates...

These two have a show of their own and they can ‘voice’ their opinions on their shows, we as the public can either listen to them or turn them off...

It was a disgrace not only to the public voters but to the candidates on stage....

I could care less how Fox feels, or Rupert Murdock or anyone else on that program...its the candidates and the public voters time....

LOL, you gotta be kidding.

If anything, after last night, Kelly is MORE likely to be a moderator at all the Fox debates and her sky high prime time ratings will only go up. Her star is rising and your petition will go nowhere.

Also, Trump was going to have to answer most of those questions anyway and, much as I don’t like him at all, he did pretty well.

Fox has proven itself unworthy, but what is the alternative? I can’t believe the Republicans are actually having debates on CNN and MSNBC.

Maybe, it is time for a full blown debate hosted on the internet. Can FreeRepublic handle 25,000,000 streaming consumers?

A debate is when some candidates address each other, this was a group interview with statements instead of questions. What a joke. All the candidates were treated unfair.

no, so he can run as a Democrat, but one that is not a socialist/communist like the current ‘Democrat’ candidates.

Yeah I couldn’t believe that “turn and tell so and so your view” stuff. As if the candidates for POTUS are supposed to play stupid “simon says” games for lowly newsreaders.

Yes you are right, they were all asked difficult or embarrassing questions. Trump got p- ssed and acted badly, the others handled the questions with polite dignity.

I guarantee you, he won’t be running as a Democrat. I will also guarantee you that once he is eliminated, it will be full speed ahead for Jeb Bush. Think back to the Romney fiasco and tell me I’m wrong.

“If anything, after last night, Kelly is MORE likely to be a moderator at all the Fox debates and her sky high prime time ratings will only go up. Her star is rising and your petition will go nowhere.”

You are apparently facebook impaired because kelly’s audience scorched her earth there, publically declaring they will abandon her show, and they didn’t sign their posts behind screen names, but with their real names backed by their pictures. Only 1% defended her.

Facebook reactions hold more weight than any other medium.

A good, unbiased panel would be these stellar people: All three of them have the highest of standards and intelligence that's at Mt. Everest levels. Replace the tiresome threesome from Fox and last night's number of 24 million viewers would soar toward 100 million.

Do you believe that Megyn will ask Trump to come onto her show in the near future? One on one? I’d pay to watch that interview, but she doesn’t have the guts as he’d twist her into knots until the little harlot cried.
