A New York Magazine writer and author of the 2014 book about Fox News CEO Roger Ailes, "The Loudest Voice in the Room," said in a recent televised interview the cable station's biggest star, Megyn Kelly, may not be re-engaging in public disputes with presidential hopeful Donald Trump because she doesn't want to hurt her chances to move to a more mainstream network, like CNN.
Kelly, on the heels of widespread criticism of her debate night questioning of Trump after which the billionaire businessman called her a "bimbo" in a tweet went on what she and Fox officials said was a long-planned vacation. Trump, on the other hand, claimed her vacation was due to the fireworks she faced from her presidential debate questions about his previous treatment of women. As soon as she returned, he retweeted messages from Twitter posters that once again, called her a "bimbo." Various Fox personalities called Trump wrong for reigniting the dispute with Kelly, while Ailes came out and called for the presidential contender to apologize.
Kelly, meanwhile, took the high road and didn't directly respond to Trump's latest attacks. And Newsmax TV host Steve Malzberg wanted author Gabriel Sherman to explain why. "I think she, up until this point, was kind of the fastest rising star at Fox," Sherman said. "She was really becoming the face of the network. ... I don't think she wants to get down in the weeds and in the gutter...

LOL....what ever happened to Kieren Chetry, or whatever her name was?
Oh I understand those....
Kelly would be a better fit for a small, rural TV Station.
She forgot she's already been crawling in the gutter with those sexy tight clothes and comments on Howard Stern's show and other places? She's a bottom-feeder when it comes to her bad "journalism" questions that do not relate to important relevant topics.
Bye Megyn, wherever.
Put Judge Jeanine Pirro in her spot.
Good riddance.
wwf could probably use a ring card girl. :-)
How many viewers has Fox lost since the Trump dust-up? Not that this makes any difference, I haven’t watched it since the Kelly v Trump debate.
She has those on full display. FNC has finally shown they are no different than liberals at MSNBC or CNN aside from waving the flag and doing it with lots of pretty women. I predict by 2017 FNC’s viewership will be down by a third if not half. So much for we report, you decide...
MK make it so!
Then, let us know how you are doing after Trump/Cruz win in 2016!
MK thanks for helping Trump get such a head start.
A very suspect story. She only recently signed a new contract with Fox. This is an example of Media Meddling - this time with themselves.
Good. Move yer biased ass to a place where it will be welcomed.
Why am I not surprised!
She said the vacation was long planned, but where are the tweets etc. indicating such ahead of it?
She knows a move to CNN would be diminishing, not going to happen.
Her ratings will be going up for a while, then crash.
Yessir.....looks like a serious journalist in THAT photo /s
IOW she was gaming to negotiate her contract at the top and taking out trump was supposed to mean money into her contract. Worked out for dan rather too.....
Buh, bye. Then Tomi Lahren can have the time slot.
This song is dedicated to megyn kelly and all the other useless feminist turds(to many to count) I have worked with over the years. Warning graphic lyrics LMAO
