I find it interesting that Kelly has been moved UP to the same time slot as Maddow kicking out slimy Hannity. This is what made me want to start watching her and I found a very different Megan. Apparently she is leaving soon, and good for her. She is too good for Fox.
Why do you call her a *****? are you male or female, if you don't mind my asking.
Yes, I am biased towards women who stand up for other women. Smart women on Fox are made to act like bimbos.
I disagree with that - smart woman are not made to act like bimbos. I stopped regularly stopped watching Fox after the Trump / Kelly debacle - but found all their women journalists to be quite smart - seeing both sides of the debate and discussing the good and bad of each.

You don't like Hannity because he's a Trump supporter - you like Megyn because she's a feminist and started the whole Trump hates women controversy. Hillary's campaign latched on to that and that is the focus of her campaign - no substance - no policies - but empty promises and the gender card.

Extreme feminists, BLM and the far left have made this country what it is today - get rid of all of them and maybe we can get it back on track.

Ross Perot was right on a lot of things.

He was kicked out by the real threat on his life by the powers that used him to get Clinton elected.

Perot was throughly disgusted by Bill Clinton.

Trump is always for the winner.

That's why he wants to get elected.

If they are as bad as you claim WHY do you watch and listen to them so much?
It takes only a few minutes to judge Rush and Hannity, they are so one dimensional. it is not that hard to do. I tune in out of curiosity and for entertainment until it quickly turns to disgust and I cannot stand them any more. So, in small, tiny measure, just for knowing the world we live in.

I do watch Fox, I have said it before. I watch Chris Wallace who I think is very smart and asks tough questions of all his guests. I watch the first half and then switch off when the Panel gathers as it has nothing to say that interests me. Sometimes I like Bret Baer (sp?). Just recently i started watching Kelly when she was cast on the same time slot as Maddow. All together I do not watch cable news much, I prefer PBS and listen to NPR.

I watched Gretchen Carlson when she was lampooned by Jon Stewart who enumerated her stellar qualifications. also a graduate of Stanford like Maddow. You don't get into Stanford on looks. Yet she asks stupid questions and acts dumb. why is that? because she is paid good money for that.

I dislike Hannity because he is an idiot, unlike Rush who is actually smart even though he never finished High School.

I only watch the opening segment of Kelley and only started recently and yes, I am quite impressed. I have caught her before when she dressed the typical Foxy way and behaved that way. Then she took Carl Rove to task on Election night. That was an electric moment. And yes I respect feminists. Why don't you? Trump of course hates women and has no respect for them. How many times does he have to prove it for you? No it is not the same as Clinton, although he is also slimy.

Why does it appear that she is in the dog house now with the Fox faithfuls?
Megyn Kelly is just a strong independent voice and what every journalist should aspire to be. I think the fact that people have no idea what to make of her is just sad and shows how far we've fallen.

Agree.

She's also mature, too mature for the crowd drawn to most of the crowd at F-News.

Hannity Pannity rose to the top.

Just because she was chosen to ask Trump the question about his treatment of women she is suddenly labeled a feminist, or are all smart women feminists. Trumps views on women were going to appear one way or the other plenty of people have brought it up, but when a woman brings up the subject she get's the label. Kelly is very bright and fair for the most part, not true of the extremist like Hannity and Limbaugh.
