NBC execs 'are holding crisis meetings' after advertisers and public object to Megyn [tr]
UK Daily Mail ^ | June 14, 2017 | James Wilkinson

As the furor over Megyn Kelly's upcoming interview with conspiracy theorist Alex Jones continued to broil online, NBC execs are reportedly panicking over the negative publicity. They spent the whole of Monday in crisis meetings to work out how to handle the backlash from parents angry that Kelly has given a platform for Jones' ludicrous claims - including that the Sandy Hook shootings were faked. 'It's a s**tshow,' a source told Page Six. 'No one wants to withstand a whole week of criticism over this. There are a number of people who want to pull the interview.'

I could not think of a worst start to Megyn's debut at NBC. She was universally panned for her interview with Putin where he ran rings around her. Now she is getting heat for her interview with a whack job.

They should air the crisis meetings as reality teevee, it would improve their ratings.

Megyn seems to be having the bang up success that new flavoured Coke had back in 1985. Anybody here remember that, lol?

Why is Jones known as a “conspiracy theorist”?

Because he has been saying for 20 years that there is an international elite who want to globalize the economy, limit population, and erase national borders with overwhelming immigration.

What a kook!

It’s as plain as the smirk on her face. She was trying to tie Jones and Trump together. That was the whole purpose of the interview to show the connection of Jones and Trump, in the opening to the interview.

She was trying to do the same thing with Putin.

IN SHORT, THIS TWO BIT PHONY IS TRYING TO CONTINUE HER SHORT PERIOD OF FAME ON THE COAT TAILS OF HER ANTI TRUMP THEME.

People watched her before because she was on Fox. They didn’t watch Fox because of Megan.

I live in Atlanta, of course I remember the New Coke episode. They came out smelling like a rose, but for a while there, it didn’t look good.

Love your tag line , btw. I roomed with some guys who played lacrosse on the college club team, and my son played in high school. It’s a great sport, it has everything soccer lacks. It has scoring, allows physical contact, and requires opposable thumbs.

The Corporatist Media gave her this gig since she trashed Trump last year.

Regarding the “limit population” item, go read up on the Georgia Guidestones for a creepy related story.

Jones went on air to call Megyn a complete liar because he has never claimed or believed that Sandy Hook was not real.

+1. Jones is the Ron Paul of alternative media. Right about many things but takes a hard turn into crazytown on others.

I’ll bet champagne corks are popping in Austin though. There’s no such thing as bad publicity. Is David Icke next? Reptilians, call your office.

Megyn had it all planned out. She would sabotage Trump’s chances in the primaries, then get a big pay day and leave the conservative FOX network for a more liberal one. Then Hillary would win the election, and Megyn would be able to interview Hillary and other winning democrats often from her liberal network, and she would roll around in money for the rest of her career.

Exactly Nikos! I could not agree more!

...”I could not think of a worst start to Megyn’s debut at NBC. She was universally panned for her interview with Putin where he ran rings around her. Now she is getting heat for her interview with a whack job.”...

NBC needs to think again if it thought it could steal the FOXNEWS base which is conservative. There is no way on earth that true conservatives are going to watch Megyn Kelly after she did what she did at FOXNEWS, no matter who she interviews. I find her self-serving, just like all leftists, and I am done with any of her work. She can write books all day and I, an avid reader, would not pay a cent for what she has to say in any venue.

Remember it, I lived it being a part of Coke-USA back then. I saw the first reintroduced Classic come off the line in Seatle

There are a lot of puts and takes in that story
