by NoahMegyn Kelly never should have left her comfort zone of FOX News. She was there for 10 years. Being blonde and bigoted, she fit in perfectly and she had no problem saying whatever racist thought popped into her mind. For Megyn Kelly, working at Fox might as well have been like working at Lester Maddox’s Restaurant in early 1960s Georgia. She could say anything racist, anything at all. It was at FOX where she famously proclaimed that Santa Claus is white, that Jesus is white, and that if anyone disagreed, they should just get over it. Sure, that made waves, but at GOP-TV that wasn’t going to cost her her job. In fact, it made her a high-paid star to republicans everywhere.After her 10 years at FOX, the idea that Megyn Kelly is a racist shouldn’t have surprised anyone in America who has been paying even a little attention. The Trump-voting half of America loves her for it even though Trump doesn’t like her. The two may not like eachother but both are racist so it’s all just fine and dandy. It’s c’mon, can’t we all get along? The tiff between Megyn and Donald was never going to be a big deal, even with misogyny on the part of Trump. Hell, that’s just a bonus to some people!Then Kelly’s contract was coming up for renewal and a proven corporate imbecile at NBC, ironically named Andy Lack threw a lot of cash at her and hired her away from FOX to work at NBC. FOX didn’t sweat it, knowing that they had plenty more racists in their stable with which to replace her. Did Lack find her racism appealing and think it would be a plus for NBC? Or, did he, just as stupidly, think leopards really do change their spots. Who knows, but the fact that he would hire a flaming racist speaks volumes and what he really did was hire a ticking time bomb and that time bomb proved that you can take a person out of FOX News but you can’t take FOX News out of the person. They were there for a reason in the first place.That time bomb went off in October during Kelly’s hour on NBC’s flagship today show. Way to go Lack! Way to go! Since Kelly had already demonstrated her penchant for matching up her inner racist child with holidays, and she had already checked Christmas and Easter off her list, she came up with a way to be racist for Halloween and it was special. Kelly said that white folks dressing up in blackface for Halloween is just fine and dandy with her. No candy for you, Megyn! No candy for you! How much you wanna bet that she wanted to do her whole Halloween show in blackface and do it talking in a fake “negro” accent ala Amos and Andy? I bet she practices that at home with her husband while singing to a collection of lawn jockeys. Sing “Mammy” for us, Megyn! Sing it! Go ahead. You know you want to. Is the camera on?The end result of her latest outburst of Republican thought was a bye-bye from NBC.For Lack, the decision was probably made all the more easy by the fact that her new NBC Sunday night show was losing out to 60 Minutes reruns and Kelly had already driven 400,000 viewers away from the 9:00am hour of “Today” compared to when it was hosted by two people of color, Al Roker and Tamron Hall. That’s 13% of the audience gone. Not good. Not good at all. How much do you wanna bet that the fact that she drew so many fewer viewers than Roker and Hall really gets on Kelly’s racist psyche? Get over it, Megyn!It’s doubtful that Kelly will ever return to FOX but don't fret for her. It's not like someone has ripped her from her family and stuffed her in a cage. Kelly did burn some bridges though by leaving in a huff when she went to NBC, and, of course, there’s the issue of being declared persona non grata by Trump. Plus FOX just doesn’t need her. I’m sure, however, that, in the very unlikely event that FOX ever does run out of racists, they would accept an audition tape of up-to-date racist comments in a talk show or news program setting. Or, maybe she could just change her name to Kelly Megyn. As long as she was plenty racist, FOX executives and viewers would embrace her without ever making the connection.The whole thing was a huge lose-lose for the inept Lack. Tamron Hall left NBC when it was revealed that she, a successful, accomplished and popular African-American journalist and host with good ratings would suddenly be dumped in favor of a racist. I’m guessing Lack just never saw that coming. Hall was quickly snapped up by ABC and will have a new show there in 2019.
