‘Today’ Show FINALLY Confirms Megyn Kelly Rumors

Is she, or isn’t she?

We’ve all been kept guessing.

But NBC is now confirming that Megyn IS on her way out…

According to Fox News:

Megyn Kelly is out at NBC News, according to the $69 million talk show host’s own soon-to-be-ex colleagues at 30 Rock, who confirmed the poorly kept secret Friday morning with a tweet.

“This morning, NBC News host Megyn Kelly is in talks with the network about her imminent departure, according to a source familiar with the situation,” revealed a tweet from the “Today” show’s account.

Am I the only one who feels like they’ve been LOOKING for a reason to can her?

They finally got it.

NBC’s confirmation followed a furious spate of developments that followed Kelly’s ill-advised suggestion on Tuesday that putting on “blackface” isn’t necessarily racist under certain circumstances. Kelly, whose unpopularity at the Peacock Network was already well known, apologized tearfully for the comment, but on Thursday NBC announced that her show would be taped reruns until further notice. That sparked rumors – now confirmed – that she would be out just halfway through her bank-breaking, three-year contract that pays her $23 million per annum.

As her job hosting “Megyn Kelly Today” circled the drain, other developments swirled around Kelly, who rose to stardom at Fox News Channel. Fox News learned that Kelly’s legal team was insisting on having #MeToo superstar Ronan Farrow accompany her to settlement talks. Kelly had sided with Farrow, whose Pulitzer Prize-winning story about now-disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein’s sexual misconduct was spiked by NBC suits.

Kelly, a champion of the #MeToo movement, had also irked network honchos by taking on-air shots at NBC for not hiring an independent law firm to conduct an investigation into the culture of the company amid refusing to air Farrow’s reporting and Matt Lauer’s termination for sexual misconduct.

Yeeeeeah. They hated her.

And honestly… I didn’t think she stood a chance from the start.

The doorknobs that watch NBC were NEVER going to forgive her for starting on Fox. She was just another one of the EVIL FOX NAZIS to them. And conservatives? Well, I think a lot of them feel betrayed by her.

So… yeah. I think she shot her career in the foot (or in the heart?) when she decided to leave Fox.

We’ll see how this goes.
