Another Terrible Review for ‘Poseur’ Megyn Kelly:‘Shallow’ Talent Lacks ‘Acumen’ & ‘Magnetism’
breitbart ^ | TONY LEE

Posted on 06/25/2017 6:36:45 AM PDT by davikkm

Another day, another terrible review for NBC News talent Megyn Kelly in the establishment media. The Boston Globe’s television critic Matthew Gilbert ripped Kelly for lacking both the charisma and acumen to be successful at NBC News.

After watching the first three poorly-rated episodes of Sunday Night with Megyn Kelly, he notes that charisma is a “relatively hard quality to define” and points out that “Merriam-Webster actually resorts to the supernatural in its first definition of the word: ‘A personal magic of leadership arousing special popular loyalty or enthusiasm for a public figure.’”

“All I know is that I don’t find Megyn Kelly charismatic. She has no ‘personal magic,’” Gilbert writes, adding that Kelly “is lacking in that mysterious quality that engenders curiosity, excitement, and trust in a TV viewer.”

According to Gilbert, “there’s something stubbornly shallow about her presence, so that when she sits down with an international dodge artist like Vladimir Putin, she seems way out of her league.”

Kelly, according to Gilbert, “came off like a poseur” in her widely-criticized interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin by just “going through the motions of seriousness” and wound up looking “two-faced” after her disastrous interview with Alex Jones aired. After HuffPost obtained unedited footage of Kelly’s interview with Putin in which a “nervous” Kelly lobbed him “softballs,” Kelly was resoundingly mocked. And Gilbert notes that Putin “brushed her and her questions off like they were so much dandruff.”

She blew it by attacking Trump. Her conservative audience abandoned her so she jumped ship to NBC only to find that she was still hated by the leftist audience at her new station.

Nothing short of 10 years in a gulag can prove she has fully embraced the liberal narrative.

Megyn Kelly, a poser, you say?

Right back where she should be. Standing on a corner.

Everyone on her staff when she was at Faux was white, female and blonde.

Thinks for reminding us of the beginning of the fall of Kelly and the real rise for Trump all most two years ago.

Kelly, enjoy your free fall from fame into irrelevance.

We are enjoying it.

great...another thread attacking Megyn Kelly; to go along with, and substantiate the dozens of other posts attacking Megyn Kelly...

just to add grist to the mill; I once heard that Megyn used the word ‘gender’instead of ‘sex’, a capital crime here in Freeperland...

I saw a couple of minutes of Megyn interviewing Erin Andrews. I've seen that video. It's basically 5 minutes of Erin admiring herself.

Wouldn't be surprised if there's a similar video of Megyn.

She lacked those things at Fox, but got overpraised for attacking Trump.

The first thing she did wrong was dress like a slut for the first interview with Putin.

Putin knew exactly what he was up against when she tried to cross her legs and he smelled rancid fish.

I was shocked when Fox took Hannity’s 9:00 PM slot and gave it to Meggie. We never watched that hour again.

MEEgyn Kelly deserves whatever comes her way. She reached millions of voters in her ugly attempt to take down candidate Donald Trump. She continued with the slamming of him after the FOX biased moderators, Bret Baier and Chris Wallace, also joined in with her at the first Republican primary debate. Hiss and thumbs down on all of the self important wannabe king makers.

This was not a bad career move. Kelly parlayed a job from cable news to a national mega-million $$$ network contract. For her part, if she’s fired, she’ll still be collecting bank for years. WGAS if she’s on camera or not any more?

She got so haughty blaming Trump for having to explain to her children what a bimbo means...

Who’ she going to blame in eighteen months when she has to explain to them what unemployment means...

Dhue does consulting and media training, as well as doing motivational speaking for recovering alcoholics. She stooped to working for The Blaze for a while.
