Megyn Kelly Is Said to Be Leaving Fox News for NBC
NY Times ^ | 1/3/2017 | Jim Rutenberg

Posted on 01/03/2017 9:37:29 AM PST by usafa92

Megyn Kelly, who arrived at Fox News 12 years ago as a television news neophyte but rose to become one of its two biggest stars, has decided to leave the network to take on a broad new role at NBC News for an undisclosed amount, people briefed on the negotiations said on Tuesday.

The NBC News chairman, Andrew Lack, wooed Ms. Kelly away from Fox News by offering her a triple role in which she will host her own daytime news and discussion program, anchor an in-depth Sunday night news show and take regular part in the network’s special political programming and other big-event coverage.

The move will herald a seismic shift in the cable news landscape, where Ms. Kelly had become the second-most watched host — after Bill O’Reilly of Fox News — and often helped define the national political debate, especially over the last year as Donald J. Trump regularly attacked her, at times in viciously personal terms.

I hope that Tucker Carlson moves to 9PM.

Ford stays in the US and Kelly leaves FOX - all in one day.

And I'm still not tired of winning with Trump!

Eh, I’m not so sure, once she were to move away from a business channel, that you’d like her views so much. Not so sure she’s any more conservative than Kelly.

This is great news. I might go back and watch Fox again.

Kelly is sure to go the way of Katie Couric and the other high paid ladies who never produced.

I don’t like her interviews. I would rather have someone interview a person, so in the end we know more about that person.

“Laura Ingraham for her show.”

Now, that would be great. I can listen to Ingraham for extended periods, unlike Hannity.

“I hope that Tucker Carlson moves to 9PM.”

I like Carlson all right, but I just don’t see that happening, as that would result in an all male evening line up. No way does Fox do that. It will undoubtedly be a female.

Now, instead of seeing her on TV about once a month, I’ll never see her.

whatever.
