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.

NBC is thinking they’re going to take some Fox viewers. Who knows, the more Fox has shown their true colors lately, they may be right.

Good. Get rid of Shepard Smith, Stirewald, Rove and Parino and FOX news could get back on the right track.

She did imply the bi tendency she has on the Howard Stern show.

Good deal all around. We may now move Kennedy into the 9 PM slot (from 8 PM Fox business), Megyn gets a raise in pay, and disappears off the national scene altogether, as nobody shall watch NBC anyway.

Yes, I don’t see this working out well. She will probably be competing with 60 minutes, whom left leaners will prefer. I also don’t see her daytime show going well. Who watches NBC news during the day? I do think however that this is an attempt to spend more time with her little children which is understandable and laudable.

“Her first question for the first debate does not give her much wiggle room. “

So, you don’t think it’s appropriate for a presidential candidate accused by multiple women of harassment, or worse, to be asked about it? Should Slick Willie not have been asked to respond to his accusers? It was an entirely legitimate question, IMO.
