Trump called Kelly a 'lightweight reporter' on Wednesday morning and his campaign manager said she is 'completely obsessed' with Trump
The Fox News and Donald Trump feud is heating up now that the Republican front-runner has announced he will not be attending the network's debate Thursday night over the presence of anchor Megyn Kelly.
And while the network appears to be publicly siding with Kelly, who is still set to moderate Thursday's debate, the network is also reportedly trying to privately plead with Trump the best way they know how - through the women in his life.
Joe Scarborough revealed on Morning Joe Wednesday morning that Fox News CEO Roger Ailes had been trying to contact both Ivanka and Melania Trump hoping they could convince Trump to change his mind.

What's your deal?
hopefully Megyn Kelly will soon be a FIRED Fox bimbo.
As they always say...follow the money.
THAT is one if the biggest journalism case studies that will be part of future curriculum ( if such still exists)
Why did they ignore the big story of exploring the Trump phenomenon and its effect on American politics?
No , instead it had to become about personal and corporate partisanship and political advocacy masquerading as journalism and news coverage
The number one cable news network assumed the worst about the intellect of its viewership - and they blew it
I don’t see the brand recovering
Like we all need another group of liberal elitists controlling our information and opinions
Question is, why is Ailes so obsessed with Kelly? Why does she have so much power at Fox? She’s not that good, and she’s totally enamored with herself.
What does that have to do with my comment??? That is called a "non sequitur" - you take off on a completely unrelated tangent.
If we are going to go off on tangents, I will say I find it amusing that 4 years ago when Trump was supposed to moderate a debate (with Megyn Kelly of all people), the candidates did not want to attend the debate. Since Trump was talking about running himself, the candidates rightly assumed he would be biased. Trump's response was to ridicule the candidates for "not having courage". However, 4 years later, when Trump doesn't want to show up for a debate because he thinks the moderator will be biased, his supporters all hail him for his "courage". The Trump supporters certainly have the concept of "newspeak" down pat.
"We have never been at war with EastAsia..."
"We have always been at war with EastAsia..."
Yeh and ditch the Muslim and Mexican sympathizers they have hired to ambush Trump at the debate. Trump is nuts if he attends this debacle.
If true, this is "Yuuuuge!" Got any more info on this?
Good. If Trump skips the “debate”, so will I. I’d rather not watch these Leftist-media-driven Q&A sessions (with Leftist views often contained in the question). They’re obnoxious. The only reason I watch is to see Trump do his stuff.
I urge others to do so as well. Let's steer clicks and therefore money to our allies and away from our enemies.
Of course if he is elected, Kelley becomes Fox’ White House Correspondent.
Agreed, it's simple.
No, it’s a war to free us from the hold of the enemedia propaganda.

Can’t agree more
LOL! The Urban Dictionary enlightens us in this manner:
“A girl who is stupid, wears lots of make up and is obsessed with boys and clothes. Generally blonde but there are exceptions. Usually hang around with other bimbos. You can spot them because they will be the big group of girls that all look the same and are giggling hysterically.”

You mean exactly suited to deal with all our modern "low-info" voters?
That is what I was thinking as well.
No pass.
And you seem to be parroting Karl Rove talking points...
Trump is winning.
Fox debates are a freakshow. They have muslim activists and illegal immigrants

They had planned a verbal firing squad. AGAIN, they think we are idiots that will believe whatever they present to us. Same tactic Obamie uses.
