It’s unclear if the show’s cancellation signals the end of Kelly’s tenure at NBC, but a person who spoke with Kelly told Variety that she’s in talks with NBC News about taking a position in the cable news arena.

So NBC wants to add a Fox News slant to their hard news coverage of elections and other important events. Good to know. They can spend a few weeks every now and then defending and explaining Kelly's wingnut bullshit to viewers until her contract is fulfilled. Sounds like a plan.

Fox would take her back in a heartbeat…

BTW, “Megyn goes dark” is a pretty cute dig…

She was perfectly situated at Fox News because she is a died-in-the-wool racist and she could let that flag fly there.
Not only did no one care, it was applauded. However, she (like all feral trumpers) just refuse to understand that it won’t fly with the majority of America. It just won’t no matter how much their Dear Leader says it.

How in hell did NBC think the Number One Teabagger Pinup Doll’s view, on race of all matters, was going to play to mainstream Americans ?

And, how in hell did they think Fox’s braindead MAGAt audience was going to turn off Fox News & watch Megan, on NBC of all places ?

Sad!

“Given the circumstances, ‘Megyn Kelly Today’ will be on tape the rest of the week,”

For the final days of its run, I think they need to rename the show :laughing:

Andy Lack tried with Greta and Hugh. He won’t stop until MSNBC has a permanent Trumpist.

That’s too bad. We’ll be deprived of watching her navigate Black History Month next February.

MSNBC is run by Phil Griffin and yes, he tried all kinds of boring, deluded, right-wing trash that, strangely enough, the audience at MSNBC never wanted to watch. As mickeyg points out, the elderly racists who inhabit Fox News aren’t going to watch what’s considered to be libtard programming.

This xmas, she’ll probably trot out her favorite Jesus was White meme on Twitter.

Kelly bounced and a Blue Tsunami? Almost makes up for my losing lottery tickets.

At least she’s still got the Murdochs on speed dial. Would they take her back? Only if she promised to again prove herself to the crazies and not try any mainstream, reality-based bullshit - and move the ratings up.

They should fire her, not transfer her. Make her come in and work in the mail room to earn her salary. Then take the difference between what they pay her an a mail room worker out of the pay of the idiot executives who thought it was a good idea to hire a white supremacist from a propaganda network.

Cut your losses, NBC. You’re just creating more credibility issues for yourself here.
