Megyn Kelly wants to be the ‘next Oprah’
NY POST ^ | March 9, 2017 | By Carlos Greer and Emily Smith

Posted on 03/10/2017 6:30:25 AM PST by COUNTrecount

Megyn Kelly grew tired of combative hard news reporting and now wants “to help people the way Oprah did” on her new NBC show, sources tell Page Six.

After signing a deal with NBC worth between $12 million and $15 million, Kelly’s plans for her new show have been shrouded in secrecy.

NBC brass are interviewing executive producers in the hopes that Kelly will debut in September at either 9 or 10a.m. in front of a live studio audience.

A source told us, “There was a lot of tough news to report on her show at Fox News. A lot of combative interviewing, going after people. Doing that every night was difficult. Megyn feels she has more to offer. She wants to help people the way Oprah did, and do something more positive. She’ll be focusing on issues and bringing in real people as well as celebrities. Plus, she has a sense of humor and she wants to use that.”

Kelly told Variety in 2015, “Barbara Walters has retired, Diane Sawyer left her anchor role. Oprah has moved to the OWN network and is doing a different thing now. So why not me?” The source added, “Megyn will have the Sunday night show on NBC to scratch that itch. That’s where you’ll see the big interviews and stories.”

It took Oprah 20 years to become obnoxious and full of herself to the point that no one could bear watching her on tv. It took Megyn about 6 months. I think she’ll be shelved to Inside Edition within the year.

And to work less, sleep later, spoend more time with family, and get paid more. Totally unexpected.

Lol. Crude but amusing. Megan's blondness OUGHT to get her SOME kind of rating. Heck, that IS the old-fashioned way: couch casting.

OR

She could get stinking rich and BUY her own network.

Any bets on how long she lasts before NBC cancels her contract?

Megyn is nothing more than stinky Trump Roadkill!

The trajectory of her career reflects the exact moment she decided to be a Trump Slayer. All down hill from there. HA!

Well, she does have the overstuffed self-importance attitude down. Too bad that she's white, relatively good looking and doesn't appear to have weight problems. And, last I heard, she's actually married to a man and has children with him.

The LSM will never accept her non-alternate lifestyle, and she's nuked her bridges with other media.

Me-again is definitely toast.

I’d love to see her gain 80 pounds and grow an afro.
