Megyn Kelly’s controversial interview with Alex Jones aired Sunday. I watched the first 10 minutes, got bored and changed the channel. I already knew how it was going to go down. We all know Jones is wack, and we know how Kelly operates, so I knew nothing shocking would come out of the interview.
In case you missed it–

I guess most people felt the same way as me, because holy crap her ratings sucked.
According to Nielsen, “Sunday Night with Megyn Kelly” garnered an abysmal 3.5 million viewers. A CBS rerun of “60 Minutes” beat her out, with 5.3 million views. In fact, of all “four major networks,” her show came in last.
WAIT. It gets worse. A rerun of “America’s Funniest Home Videos” happened to air the same time as Kelly’s show, and it beat her out too. It garnered 3.7 million views.
Kelly’s show was not only beaten out by an ABC rerun of “America’s Funniest Home Videos” that attracted 3.7 million viewers, but also by a CBS rerun of “60 Minutes” watched by 5.3 million viewers, and Fox’s U.S. Golf Open Championship coverage that received 6.1 million viewers.
Daaaaaaaaaaang. Beat out by a rerun of “America’s Funniest Home Videos.” Now THAT has to sting.
