Megyn Kelly Is Said To Be Leaving Fox News for NBC

[musiclady]

@Cripplecreek

I wanted Cruz to have to deal with tough questions.  Not only because it was a vehicle to explain his policies and set the record straight on any misunderstandings, but because it showed the manner in which he handled aggressiveness from the media.

You're absolutely right @CatherineofAragon .

If a guy can't handle tough questions from legitimate journalists (or even the average leftist pseudo-journalist) he will never survive in the real world of politics......... especially presidential politics.

Just imagine all the childish outbursts we're in for in the next four years.

And I was so hoping after eight years of Obama, we'd finally get an adult in the Oval Office.....


Sigh..............

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 salary, NBC announced Tuesday afternoon.

I wish her well.  That FNC allowed the vulgarian to attack her with no pushback speaks volumes about their total lack of honor or integrity.

Would have loved to see her get the evening news anchor spot. But that would have meant butting heads with the producers lining of the story content for the show.

   Megyn is a NY Liberal Hack, she'll fit right in at NBC.
   She certainly rattled Cruz a couple of times.

...wondering if her Sunday evening show will air opposite 60 Minutes?

[TomSea]

Liked her with long hair better and the attitude she had than the way she is now; but we'll see.

Pre-2016, I'd think most of us probably liked her more. I was never that fascinated with the show.

She did do well, in being inquisitive per the Dr. Gosnell trial, pro-life issues, I won't forget that.

[corbe]

   She slandered Ted in the 2nd debate, then edited out her apology, as much as I could like her for chewing on Trump's ankles like a deranged Chihuahua, she's a NY Liberal Hack, she'll fit right in at NBC.

 

Megyn Kelly ADMITS to Ted Cruz the record shows he DID NOT SUPPORT legalization in 2013 Amnesty showdown

Ted Cruz was on with Megyn Kelly right after the debate tonight and midway through the interview she brought up her question to him about his poison pill amendments in the 2013 showdown on amnesty in the Senate.

What I thought was noteworthy was that Kelly admitted to Cruz that after thoroughly reviewing his record on whether or not he supported legalization, she believes his record does support his argument that his amendments were really poison pill amendments and that he never actually supported legalization.

She attacked Cruz with misleading deceptive questions and nobody batted an eye. Could care less where she goes.

I think most people assumed she is conservative because she worked at Fox News.  Guess we'll know for sure shortly.

[DCPatriot]

I cannot imagine Megyn Kelly reading the news with a slant she knows not to be true.

In fact...THAT'S probably why she's NOT anchoring the news, but rather, other 'stuff'.

[TomSea]

Cruz couldn't take her questions because Cruz flip-flopped on amnesty, just copies what Rush Limbaugh and Trump have both said, untried as a leader like Governors Walker and Perry are.

Trump isn't conservative but George Open-Borders Bush is, we got it.

That line about "we must identify terrorism and call it by its name, Islamic Terrorism" was first said by Rush or someone.

NBC is where journalist careers go to die. MeAgain is finished as a journalist. Murdock sent her on a Kamakazi mission to sink Trump and she failed. Murdock does not reward failure so MeAgain got canned. Had MeAgain succeeded in getting Hillary elected Murdock would have richly rewarded her. Now because Fox News could not bring down Trump (and they tried) Murdock got to kiss Trump and make up. A very distasteful thing for a billionaire like Murdock to do.

Re Cruz, MeAgain played footie with Ted every time she interviewed him. Nothing but softballs.

I occasionally saw her on her day time show. I liked her back in the day, but when she declared war on Trump and joined the NeverTrumpers I switched her off, permanently. I won't watch her on NBC either.

Just for the record Ted Cruz DID SUPPORT LEGALIZATION for those in the country illegally.

Tom, that's not true and you know it.

@TomSea @Sanguine

It is the Truth, be flip flopped on immigration just like he flip flopped on TPP. Why do you think he's called "Lying Ted". Even Rand Paul called him a liar on immigration.

[truth_seeker]

Cruz often takes 250 words, to say what only takes 25 words to say.

Lawyers bill by the hour. Why not drag the darn stuff out?

Tom doesn't care if something is true or  not.  He makes Rachel Maddow seem balanced.

Cruz embarrassed the democrats by offering them everything for illegals except citizenship, and they predictably dropped the subject since Cruz had taken new democrat votes off the table.  In doing so of course Cruz supported his own amendment.  But Trump is not capable of understanding that kind of subtlety; he and his sycophants call Cruz "Lyin' Ted" because Trump can't debate any subject on a rational, factual basis, and is forced to resort to taunting and name-calling.

Much of Trump's "rationale" against Cruz was that he was "owned" by Goldman Sachs, yet Trump has now appointed three GS alumni - Bannon, Mnuchin, and Cohn.  In retrospect "Lyin' Don" would be more accurate.

You are correct @HoustonSam.  @TomSea and @jpsb have their narrative and seldom deviate from it.  Do they actually believe it?  Hard to imagine that they do, but who knows?

Well at least you are honest enough to admit the obvious that Cruz was in favor of legalization for the tens of millions of illegals here in the USA. I appreciate that.

Hey you don't believe me? Listen to Ted in his own words talk about making the illegals legal and "bringing them out of the shadows". And he is telling the honest truth when he says rejecting this amendment will make it more likely that this entire bill will fail. and again when he says "I don't want immigration reform to fail"


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CwVrfydjOI

Cruz was right had his amendment passed it was much more likely the GOP House would have passed "immigration reform" that my friend is not a poison bill that is the exact opposite of a poison bill. And the courts would have thrown out the "no pathway to citizenship" part in a NY second.

Spin it however you want, the fact remains that Cruz forced the democrats to drop the issue themselves.  It never came to a vote precisely because of his proposed amendment.  He used the tools and powers of his office to get the result that he, and we, wanted.  Funny how when Trump wins for himself he's a genius, when Cruz wins for us he's a liar.

Meanwhile "Lyin' Don" still has those Goldman Sachs types lined up for his cabinet.  Why doesn't he offer a position to Heidi Cruz?

   Even a fellow traveler (NY Liberal) Megyn Kelly understands what a 'poison pill' is and admitted to Cruz that that was in fact what he did-DESTROYED THE GANG of 8 Immigration Reform.

Bull the gang of 8 PASSED in the Senate Cruz did nothing to stop it. Gang of 8 died when Cantor lost his House seat solely to the issue of amnesty. Go pedal you revisionist history to some fellow globalist. I know the truth.

Once again pure Bull, I have presented Cruzs' own words out of his own lips and you guys still don't get it. There is a reason he's called lying Ted. And Cruz stopped nothing "immigration reform" (amnesty) passed in the Senate.

And yall think Trumpers are cultists.

You are correct and I am incorrect that the bill passed the Senate without Cruz's amendment, but was not taken up in the House.  Point taken.

However I retract nothing on the effect of Cruz's approach - he revealed that the democrats care nothing for illegals beyond securing their votes.

Many (including myself) think Trumpers are cultists because "own words out of his own lips and you guys still don't get it" regularly indicts Trump with no acknowledgement from his supporters.  Goldman Sachs was bad during the primaries, but now three Trump appointees are GS alumni.  He opposed the USSC homosexual marriage decision last January, but after the election was OK with it because it was "settled" in law.  He wants to prosecute Hillary in October, then in November he doesn't want to hurt her.  He wants to deport all illegals last February, then after the election he only wants those with criminal records.  And there are many more self-serving public contradictions in mere opinion without immediate policy implications.  Does any of that matter to you?

I'll acknowledge here that a good case can be made for Cruz flip-flopping on legalization; I don't think he did, but it's not an unreasonable conclusion to draw.  Can you acknowledge that there is a reasonable case Trump has flip-flopped on the items I've listed or on any other items, and that those flip-flops are actually failures rather than some kind of 9 dimensional stealth Jedi chess?
