Megyn Kelly’s bestselling memoir is called “Settle for More,” but the star anchor may have to settle for less money if she decides to leave the Fox News Channel.
Kelly is said to have not made up her mind about staying with Fox News beyond the end of her contract in July, even with an offer of more than $20 million a year to stay, which would put her in the same income bracket as NBC’s “Today” co-anchor Matt Lauer.
So far no other networks have offered to top Fox’s figure, according to network news executives and agents familiar with the talks and who were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly. A spokesperson for Creative Artists Agency, which represents Kelly, declined to comment on her contract negotiations.

What decline in viewers? Her ratings were at record highs in the data just released for last month...it wasn’t just her, though - it was pretty much the entire Fox News Channel.
Not to mention her Howard Stern interviews were just about as bad as anything Trump said.
I think she knows how unpopular she has become (by the comments on Amazon about her book if nothing else). She seems to feel “hurt” by that opinion of her (just my take on things). President Trump’s deplorables have long memories....too bad, sister.
I happened to be watching this week (I had a friend over who actually likes her program) - and it was showing the lines of fans for her at one of her book signing events. Maybe it was in your town.
Stop apologizing. If anything, you’re being too kind to her.
If someone hires her, everything becomes all about her and her hard, pointy little face, all the time. The same lesson her first husband learned the hard way.
Isn’t that a bit high?
....did I mention the rogue circus elephant?
stopped watching her months ago, and have no desire ever top watch her again. Infact I make sure the TV is not even on FOX at that time slot so as not to add to her ratings.
OANN is the channel
we now watch.
I thought rumors were — FoxNews offered her $15 million but she wants $20 million. That was after her Fox Channel one-hour news special basically flopped. Fox then allowed her to shop around to the other news channels to see whether she could get more than the $15 million offer.
Her book seems to also be a rousing one-star flop. Maybe she should have collected the one-star comments on Amazon and published them. They would likely have out-sold the actual book.
Ok, I’ll give $1.37 for the circus elephant.
Same here. Good move.
Doesn’t it seem odd that so many Fox “personalities” who aren’t journalists or writers seem to get #1 on NY Times Bestseller list very quickly. Are there no real writers any more?
Best seller for O’Reilly, Kelly, Earhardt, Brian, Kimberly, Dana with her dog book, Gutfeld — probably more. It’s Like everyone HAS TO write a book — laughable.
Her bs book is not a bestseller on Amazon.
I trust the Ny Slimes best seller list like anything that is put out that lying pos the NY Slimes.
The best seller list on Amazon is based on actual book and Kindle sales to Amazon customers not some warehouse bs.
Laura Ingraham used to do a daily tv program on msnbc in the 90s. She quit to start her radio show. She conplained about wasting too much time in makeup to prepare for tv the show. With radio, she said she would be able to go on set wearing confortable sweat pants. So it was a no brainer for her to go from tv to radio. She’s a practical woman.
Fox needs to pay cnn to take mayhem smelly off of their hands. With how much she has damaged the working atmosphere at fox, she would do the same or worse at cnn, and this will finish cnn once and for all. As a result, fox will win.
IHMO she cannot be taken seriously. Would be a delight for me to see her gone.
We can only hope CNN will take her off Fox for us all.
One America News needs to start making news about what goes on with their network. Look at Fox. There is always something to discuss, be it pro or con. One America, as a brand, brings up no visual image of any kind. As Bonnie Raitt sang; “Let’s give them something to talk about!”
