After his on-air blowup with Megyn Kelly Tuesday night, Newt Gingrich may be getting the cold shoulder from Fox News Channel.
The former Speaker of the House was supposed to be a guest on Wednesday’s “Fox & Friends” morning show, but he did not appear on the program, which aired just hours after a bizarrely heated exchange between Gingrich and Kelly on live TV. The longtime GOP leader accused the anchor of being “fascinated with sex” in the ongoing scandals over Donald Trump and his treatment of women.
“He was canceled,” a person familiar with the situation told TheWrap, referring to Gingrich’s appearance on “Fox & Friends.”

I bet it won’t be long before they say Newt was disrespectful to Kelly because she’s a woman. “He tried to bully her!”
And what will that lead to?
“Newts’s Treatment Of Kelly Sexual Harassment Say Feminists”
It needs to be open season on the msm. Stop being nice while they steamroll over conservatives. Call them out when they spin.
Okay.
Fox...everyone knows you’re CNN Lite....shove it!
She’s the one who should’ve been kicked off.
Sad to see that I will no longer watch Fox if he is gone. Time to cut the ultimate cord.
This is one of the problems with cable bundling. You have to boycott the entire package.
With a la carte subscriptions, you can drop just the offending channels; and let the free market decide the winners and losers.
Fair and Balanced eh? Bull Sheite!
I would not at all be surprised to read in a Wikileaks release that Kelley was on the Clinton or DNC payroll. If the plan was concocted in 2015 to go after Trump on sex issues, Kelley surely appears to be wired in on this.
She lives in a glass house apparently. I read on FR yesterday that Kelley appeared on Howard Stern’s show a while back and they discussed breast size and the size of her first husband’s penis. Pure sleaze.
Exactly! I watch Varney and Dobbs. I haven't watched even F&F since the first MK debate.
Why should I get aggravated and drive up my blood pressure?
Why would the mod block the thread with 69 posts and leave this one open with only 28?
Inquiring minds want to know?
(No I haven’t posted to either thread prior to this... (I’m in favor of dumping Kelly and bringing in Trish Reagan to replace her)
I guess that means they’re going to give the bitch a new contract
Kelly has marketed on her sexuality to get where she is, of that there is little doubt... and I don’t give a damn if she has... so be it... but she’s been in the tank for Hillary from the get go... from trying to present Trump’s personal feuds with particular women as representative of him being anti woman etc... She’s a shill. And that’s fine too...
But the ridiculousness of a handful of women, with no proof, and many already debunked or with questionable motivations accusing a man of things, then using that as a justification for labeling him a sexual predator.. is nonsense... THey are using that term intentionally purely for the inflammatory reaction it will generate.
Bill Clinton is a SEXUAL PREDATOR.. he has had to give up his law license and pay out over 800,000 to one victim of his actions... He has multiple women who have not only accused him of rape, and other things, but there are paper trails going back to his college days of women who reported him for it... Not some 30 year old just showed up.. Juanita Broaddrick and Eileen Willey both reported the events back when they happened, and the press just ignored it.. and to this day continues to ignore it. But women just show up 3 weeks before election day claiming unsubstantiated things and that makes it okay to call Trump a “sexual predator” just as long as we put the if.. or possibly in front if it.. its propaganda and not journalism... even on an opinion show,w hich is all Kelly’s show is.. its purely inflammatory and being used simply to attempt to influence folks watching.
Bill Clinton has been accused of sexually assaulting, raping and other things by multitudes of women over 5 decades, His wife has spent those same 5 decades trying to destroy any woman her husband slept with and enabling his behaviors.. but you know... lets focus on these unfounded claims... If the press remotely had reported on Bill Clinton in 1992 like they are doing with Trump today, Bubba would have never been president.
Kelly is not the sole problem with Fox News... its always been opinion driven drivel most of the evening... but at least there was a time you could expect some level of honesty even if they had biases... now its clear for many of their personalities, honesty is irrelevant... One of the more telling moments on early Fox News... was back when Clinton finally admitted his affair and offered his “apology”... Colmes, one of the few liberals on the network at that time, was honest in that he was disappointed and though it rang shallow... he didn’t just jump into the precanned talking points that the left had already put out for reaction to it, like you found on CNN immediately after...
Those days are gone at Fox News... they have their spin, before the event even happens, and they stick with it, right or left... There is very little honesty left there, and hasn’t been for years.
Fox Business has been far better as a news source this political cycle than Fox News. Hell even CNN has offered more reasonable coverage often times than Fox News.. and that’s saying something
Ms Kelly isn’t the only problem with Fox News... she’s just a symptom of the larger decline of the station as a whole
Thank you for your great reply. I appreciate it.
I certainly agree with your comment here: “Ms Kelly isn’t the only problem with Fox News... she’s just a symptom of the larger decline of the station as a whole”.
Phuck Phox!!!!
Other than Hannity, I have increasingly tuned that station out, since it seems to be not much different from ABCCBSCNNMSNBCNBC. Why in the world would I subject myself to that crap - I tuned the uber-Lefties out nearly 15 years ago, why go back to a slightly different steaming pile of dog $hit?
Turn them all off.
I read on Drudge that Megyn hired a new agent, and has been in negotiations for a new, big money contract with Fox News. I think she’s been auditioning for that new contract on her program, but she’s gone overboard in doing so. I hope it’s damaged her chances of getting any more money for her shenanigans.
No need for Megyn Kelly to move to CNN or MSNBC. Murdoch News has already made that move.
Rupert’s boys now in charge? Or Rupert himself?
