Megyn Kelly demands outside investigation of NBC over Matt Lauer claims
pagesix ^ | 10/17/2019 | Emily Smith

Megyn Kelly branded disgraced former “Today” host — and her ex-NBC colleague — Matt Lauer a “sexual predator” as she demanded an urgent, independent investigation into the rape and sexual harassment allegations against him, and whether NBC tried to cover them up by killing stories on disgraced Hollywood perv Harvey Weinstein.

In her fiery first TV appearance since her NBC talk show was canceled a year ago, Kelly told Fox News that NBC “covered up for one sexual predator, Harvey Weinstein, in order to protect another: Matt Lauer.”

She was reacting to allegations in Ronan Farrow’s new book “Catch and Kill” that NBC killed Farrow’s exposé on Weinstein because the movie mogul knew Lauer had skeletons in his closet.

It’s difficult to watch the painted lady and take her seriously. I had to turn the channel.

More and more I take pride in the idea that it’s been many years since I last bothered to tune into mindless morning news shows from either side of the border. Largely due to being at work before and when they were on and also to avoid basic liberal drivel at that time of the day.

She didn’t demand anything. She and Tucker had an interesting talk about many things. Her statement about an outside investigation was in a larger discussion about how organizations should have outside investigators to give the public a sense of being a thorough investigation.

Kelly; the epitome of an estranged ex employee. A woman scorned with vengeance in her heart.

The real truth is she kicked her own ass when she made the bed that led to her dismissal.

If she were honest with herself she would simply learn from the experience and move on.

Wrong to give Migraine Kelly air time; it’s better if the narcissist is out of public view and terrorizing her Beta male house husband and children.

Unlike you, I took her appearance seriously wondering why she was being given so much air time and finally came to this conclusion. For some reason, FOX in not happy with Judge Jeanie, although I and others are.

This was a test run to see how well she would score with the public as a replacement of JJeanie, unfortunately. May be some other reason that will come out eventually, but that is why I watched and she performed reasonably well but not good enough, IMHO, to replace JJ.

I listened to the interview on Sirius radio. It was interesting.

She raised some valid points about NBCs whitewashing “self investigation” and presented herself well.

Another "demanded".

OK Megs. Sure thing!

Since you're demanding, we'll get right on that.

I ignored her entirely, and will continue to do so for the rest of my natural life.

She’s jumping on Farrow’s coattails and trying to get some relevance.

She isn’t quite as bad with the audio turned off.

I actually liked her last night, and I think she realizes that she could have been a huge star with Fox had she been more of a Trump fan.

She’s really pretty good at giving a consise opinion, but had she not left we would NOT have

Laura, and Shannon, and Tucker and the rest....

Same for O’Reilly, don’t really miss him.

Agreed. But expect her to show up on Fox News more often now. Maybe even get her own show. Watching her, it is clear that she has left of center ideas and has fallen for the Ukraine conspiracy theory. Fox News is searching for a replacement for Shepard Smith.

I thought it was rich that Tucker asked Kelly to comment on Anderson Cooper’s biased (positive) debate questioning of Biden considering Kelly’s biased (negative) questioning of Trump in the first debate. I wasn’t a Trump supporter at the time and her question came across as malicious with an editorial comment. She asked no other candidates questions in that manner. I can’t stand her.
