Megyn Kelly removed as host of Sandy Hook event after Alex Jones interview

By Rebecca Savransky - 06/13/17 09:11 AM EDT

Megyn Kelly will no longer host a gala for the Sandy Hook Promise Foundation after backlash over her upcoming interview with InfoWars conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

Sandy Hook Promise — which was founded by family members of some of the victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook shooting — announced Monday that Kelly would no longer be hosting the annual Promise Champions Gala scheduled for Wednesday in Washington, D.C.

Kelly is facing backlash for her upcoming interview with Jones, a noted conspiracy theorist who believes the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting was a hoax and says 9/11 was an inside job.

“Sandy Hook Promise cannot support the decision by Megyn or NBC to give any form of voice or platform to Alex Jones and have asked Megyn Kelly to step down as our Promise Champion Gala host,” Nicole Hockley, co-Founder and Managing Director of the organization said in a statement.

Their is a reason that Alex Jones articles are banned on FR.

Articles by Megyn Kelly should also be banned on FR.

Except when such Megan Kelly articles highlight her failing efforts to become as important and relevant as she thinks she is.

She got her 30 pieces of silver for stabbing Trump in the back.

Hope her NBC career tanks and she disappears to local TV within a couple years. She’s an aging bimbo. Not much of a shelf life for vacuous blondes.

Alex Jones is also a 9/11 "truther." That, among others, earns him the "nutjob" label.

She is so driven to get more and more attention that she doesn’t even stop to think. She’d do anything to promote herself.

I watch him on Youtube sometimes, but I’m not a fan of his. He’s a 9/11 truther and lies a lot. However, outrageous people have been interviewed by news people forever.

I kind of have to chuckle at this. Kelly thought she was going to get all kinds of freedom to shape her future at NBC.

What she got was all kinds of leftist roadblocks served up with duct tape on the pie hole if she tries to free wheel it.

She should return to staying home and doing the mom thing. So far her career is “unamazing”. heh

Kelly is getting absolutely hammered on Twitter. People pledging to boycott her MSNBC show. First Putin made her look like a fool and now this Alex Jones self-inflicted gunshot wound has exposed her as self promoting, anything for ratings, shallow, callous hack.
It’s amazing how President Trump had her pegged from the beginning.

Why did Megan Kelly want to interview Alex Jones in the first place? For that matter, why would a conspiracist like Alex Jones consent to an interview by someone in the mainstream media?

What next big interview will Megyn land? Maybe Dennis Rodham, or Kathy Gifford, Raul Castro, or maybe even Hillary CLintoon.

Ack, her show has hit rock bottom.
