Megyn Kelly Eviscerated Over Epstein Remark: 'This Is Career Ending'

[Botany]

The right-wing host said she did not view the sex trafficker as an “actual pedophile” until recently, among other head-scratching remarks

So it is O.K. for a 57 year old man who is married, a father, and a grandfather to pay a piece of shit like
Maxwell $500.00 to rape a 15 year old girl? Maybe even more if she is a virgin or bleeds.

Story behind a paywall.

Pretty on the outside but just an ugly person on the inside.

1. It's not career-ending if your career is at Fox.

[SocialDemocrat61]

4. She's no longer at FAUX

She went to NBC in 17 but made a bunch of racist and questionable remarks on air there and flamed out. She’s now a podcaster and crazier than ever.

[Ocelot II]

5. I didn't know that! Thought she was still at Fox (shows you how often I watch that sewer).

In that case maybe a career-end is a possibility after all.

[SocialDemocrat61]

6. And that the op

used a pic of her from her FAUX days doesn’t help.

But her flameout at NBC was amusing to see back in the day.

[Rebl2]

8. Did she

Even last 6 weeks?

[SocialDemocrat61]

9. Not sure how long she lasted

But kept saying stupid things. I think the last straw was when she defended blackface.

[Rebl2]

12. I believe

if my memory isn’t to far gone, Tamron Hall was on in the third hour and think she quit partly because they hired Megan. I seem to remember Al Roker tried to get her to stay, but she had her mind made up and quit. Worked out for her, getting her own talk show.

7. Thing about being a pod-caster is that it seems pretty easy to set up a following...

that will not care about shit like this, and will even cheer her on.

Most of the internet is a sewer.

[meadowlander]

33. In part because she experienced sexual harrassment from Roger Ailes

I guess some people don't even learn the hard way.

[Traildogbob]

2. Jesus is white

That one agrees with her.

[dflprincess]

26. She said Santa is too.

[Traildogbob]

36. Santa is Chinese

That’s where all toys are made. (Fugelsang 2025)
Kelly has a black soul.

[nycbos]

3. Not at Fox

They guy who talked about euthanizing the homeless is still working there

[BlueTsunami2018]

10. She has her own channel on Sirius/XM.

That’s where the complaints should go.

Email for CEO Jennifer Witz.

[e-mail]

Go right to the source.

[Oneironaut]

11. Not career ending. She just said how all Republicans feel out loud.

They long for the day they can be pedos with no accountability.

I truly wish Hell existed. They don’t believe it does either, judging by the way they all act. Burn, scumbags.

Edit - Ok, maybe not all, but, some, and, the party covers for those people, so, they can still fall right into hell and burn for eternity.

[Botany]

14. She is now Podcaster where she talks to people who like her, she has millions in the bank and investments

…. from previous gigs @ Fox and NBC, and no doubt she can go and give “talks” to brain dead
Christo Fascists for @ least 20 k when she wants to.

Expect an apology from her ASAP along with plenty of tears, Jesus talk, and blaming the democrats
and the media for her current predicament.

Btw I think she has a daughter around the age of being barely legal too.

[Dread Pirate Roberts]

13. "How much for the little girl?"

Maybe its just an amusing little tale for her, you know like the Blues Brothers just saying stuff for effect...

24. A lot of good clips came out of that movie, like this one:

15. Was Epstein

charged with/accused of having sex with pre-pubescent girls?

[Prairie Gates]

19. Guy, you're really going around to multiple threads defending Megan Kelly

with the supremely creepy "Well, the actual definition of pedophile is..." argument?

Seriously?

[Prairie Gates]

21. It's so sad and disgusting that American conservatism has come to that

I agree that this is the argument Megan Kelly is making. It's an argument usually made by people trying to minimize the rape of underage teenagers - absolutely horrific stuff. I also think Kelly is making it in that way. Despicable and disgusting.

American conservatism has been reduced to defending Trump by arguing that Epstein is "actually an ephedophile and not a pedophile." Jesus, how far they've fallen, and how very sad for our society.

[Greg_In_SF]

22. As a former copy editor

and journalist, I live on facts. That appears to upset certain people around here, but I don't get mad about it.

Ephedophiles and pedophiles are equally disgusting. That we can agree on.

[Prairie Gates]

25. Megyn Kelly is not making an argument of fact, but an argument of value

Her point isn't that in the discourse of experimental and behavioral psychology, Epstein should be in category A rather than category B.

Her argument is that Epstein being attracted to and raping 15 year-olds is less bad than doing so with 8 year olds. That's an argument of comparative value. Indeed, it's worse than that, because it is an argument of comparative value masquerading as a statement about facts, so it is dishonest in that respect. Certainly, any journalist worth their salt should see through that charade. In any case, it's good that you reject Kelly's argument: to claim that the two activities are "equally disgusting" is to reject her argument of comparative value, which aims to persuade her listeners that they are not.

In any case, journalists know that facts can be arranged to deceive, or put in the service of specious and despicable arguments, as they are in this case. A journalist's allegiance is not to facts, but to truth. Only a poorly trained journalist would confuse the two.

[UpInArms]

27. As a former newspaper owner and editor,

A better term would be sexual predator of young girls.

[Greg_In_SF]

31. I could not

agree more!

[LetMyPeopleVote]

16. "At least they weren't 8 years old" is going to be a heck of a 2026 slogan.

17. Back Up The Truck

He liked teens who looked younger than they were but could pass for legal?
She's lost her tiny mind.
How would a 15 year old girl who looks younger than she is look "legal to a passerby"?
She contradicted herself and is too stupid to realize it.

[Johonny]

18. Her career ended.

She just pretends to have a career on the Internet these days.

[Crunchy Frog]

23. Probably not career ending for a republican.

This is the language that they speak.

[spanone]

28. Another Monster

[Aristus]

29. Nah. Nothing is going to happen to her.

The repukes LOVE bitchy, bubble-headed blondes who spew absurdities without even smearing their lip gloss. The more idiotic the things she says, the more the idiots out in East Cornpone love her. And that just increases her paycheck.

We live in horrific times when the worst representatives of humanity reap immense rewards of wealth and power.

[ArnoldLayne]

30. Megyn Kelly is a White Supremacist also.

[chia]

32. That's an old, old photo. She looks terrible now,

a hollow MAGA face.

[LudwigPastorius]

35. Yikes.

She's slowly morphing into Ann Coulter.

[LilyBelle]

34. She's auditioning for Ghislaine Maxwell's old job

Should that position become 'available'

[LetMyPeopleVote]

37. A response to Megyn Kelly from a 14 year old👏👏👏

38. Very well said
