  • Megyn Kelly’s ‘Today’ show run is over, and it appears her days at NBC are numbered. It’s been just two years since she left Fox News to join the network, and it’s been a bumpy road the whole way down. The final straw came this week, when Kelly questioned why wearing blackface for Halloween is considered racist. And despite an emotional apology, the network decided to axe the embattled daytime talk show.
    On this week’s edition of Beat the Press, Emily Rooney was joined by Dan Kennedy of Northeastern University, Callie Crossley of WGBH News, Jon Keller of WBZ News and former NECN anchor Mike Nikitas.

    Since Megyan was FIRED I have heard quite a few news people talking about 'blackface' so I definitely think her firing was a disgrace on the part of NBC EXECUTIVES! I sure am dying to know what she is doing now as she has so much talent and is a great speaker and a GREAT SENCE OF HUMOR! Does anyone know what she is doing now--writing a follow up book OR JUST WHAT?? I HAVE HEARD NOTHING ABOUT HER SINCE SHE LEFT NBC!!!

    Megyn Kelly is awful but seriously this was simply an excuse for NBC to fire her from the Today show because of her show's low ratings. These comments she made weren't the worst thing she's ever said or even "racist". These comments may have been politically incorrect and not a "proper" thing to say in public but certainly not a fireable offense. NBC sucks and always has! Kelly's salary was outrageously high and NBC should have given Kelly an opportunity to discuss her comments further as a learning experience.

    Let's not tar Megyn with feathers. She made a mistake. She apologized. Enough, move on already.

    I really never liked Kelly but this is ridiculous. You can't say anything nowadays without people complaining about how it makes their kitty hurt. What the heck is happening to my great nation? I'm curious where else the backlash is coming from.

    I don't feel sorry for the girl since she's making 1/2 of 69 million.

    I am from Algeria, I just had this conversation with people of different races at work.

    I don’t always like Megy’s tone but her comments are not scandalous. Early blackface theatre shows may have been derogatory - but that doesn’t mean that dressing up as another ethnicity for Halloween is by default derogatory. It’s just not the same thing.

    I'm gonna miss her show. As a black man myself I wasn't really offended by anything she said.

    Good! She should have been dismissed in the first place for being so disrespectful to the amazing senior woman - Jane Fonda!
