Fox News Chairman and CEO Roger Ailes released a statement on Tuesday about Donald Trump's renewed war on host Megyn Kelly.
“Donald Trump's surprise and unprovoked attack on Megyn Kelly during her show last night is as unacceptable as it is disturbing. Megyn Kelly represents the very best of American journalism and all of us at FOX News Channel reject the crude and irresponsible attempts to suggest otherwise.”

On Tuesday morning Fox & Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade fired back, saying Trump is "out of control." At least 10 separate Fox News personalities publically rebuked Trump before noon on Tuesday, evidence that no one is being told to be nice to Trump from the powers that be.

She and some guy were ridiculing Trump for his interview with BOR. They were both very snarky about it.
I couldn’t agree more. He is a terrible distraction. I’m terribly disappointed by how many “FReepers” have bought into the hype hook, line, and sinker. The more quickly he is exposed and discarded, the more quickly the star-chasers on here can move their focus back to conservative principles.
“I saw tweets that had Trump making snide remarks about her return to the program, being “off her game” and needing another vacation, etc. Deliberate rudeness? We want this in the White House?”
NOPE, if you read past the headlines, he RESPONDED to her.
You want another pansy like Bush never answering back to his enemies in the White House?!
Yeah, I know. But the media is holding their cards close to the vest until we have a nominee. They are hoping it’s Trump.
“This would upset me. If I still watched “The Jeb News Channel.””
Same here. Dropped em election night 2008. They were all happy. TOO happy.
I find this curious. Fox News has been attacked for years and yet I seldom heard of any response from the network.
Now, Trump makes a comment and it is over the line.
Me thinks they protest too much.
OK, if she was instigating snark, that makes a difference. Snark begets snark. But Trump needs to lay off Twitter. There’s not enough context in 140 characters or less.
“She and some guy were ridiculing Trump for his interview with BOR. They were both very snarky about it.”
And MANY here don’t care to read past the headlines to understand that.
OK, see my 67.
Nukes??? A little pfft doesn’t very well describe a Nuke.
“Kilmeade”
Uh huh. Kelly has a handful of pet Fox ‘personalities’ she throws a bone to by allowing them on her show. I’m shocked, SHOCKED I tell you, that they started squawking when their meal ticket get’s her hair mussed.
Used to DVR OReilly, dropped him years ago. The Kelly File is no longer in the que to record either now. It’s not a show of support for Trump as much as it is a show of disappointment in Kelly.
I agree. One can be assertive and strong how people and issues are dealt with. But continuing this school yard style is a bit much.
I recall when Jimmy Carter ran the White House and the image of the presidency into the ground. In comes Reagan and some sense of presidential "decorum" returned.
I long for those days from both parties.
Cad? The feminists killed that word about 40 years ago. They either like it or lump it. Thanks to women like Kelly (and probably her mother), women like me have had to put up with a lack of manners for a long time now. She needs to suck it up and so does everyone else.
Megyn Kelly’s attack on presidential candidates was disturbing. She asked them if sarcastically, “Any word form God?”
Megyn Kelly needs to be fired from Fox for such an abusive display of childish antics on a presidential debate before tens of millions of viewers.
Megyn is a bimbo and plays on one tv
maybe she can photoshoot some more t & A photos
He does not drink.
Yes. Some people need to back away from Twitter. Trump is chief among them.
“Now, Trump makes a comment and it is over the line.’
Fox knows when Trump makes a comment, it impacts like a sledge hammer.
