Megyn Kelly to Go it Alone
/After Megyn Kelly walked out of Fox News and crossed the street to NB, where she imploded, after FTVLive said she was basically unemployable for a TV news organization.
It appears that Megyn Kelly agrees.
The New York Post says that Kelly is looking to launch her own news production company and follow in the footsteps of Bill O’Reilly.
Kelly is looking at launching her own video podcast, just like O’Reilly, whose subscription service to show “No Spin News” has proven to be profitable.
Kelly has been looking at office space in Midtown to build up her “Kelly brand” and get her teeth back into the news business ahead of the 2020 election.
As someone that runs their own business, we say good for Kelly to striking out on her own.
But, here is why she might find some rough waters.
Bill O’Reilly’s model works, because he is loved by the right.
Kelly was shunned by the right when she asked Trump tough questions at a debate. Soon after, Kelly left Fox for NBC and tried to warm up to the left, which never liked her.
She left NBC after some racist comments about black face and other problems and that put her on an island.
The right no longer liked her and the left never did.
Since leaving NBC, Kelly has tried to use her social media to align herself back with the right. Then she made an appearance on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show to again, help her on the right.
The show pulled ratings, but many might have tuned in for the car wreck more than anything else.
If Kelly is going to make it in the podcasting world, she needs to shore up the political right and get them back in the tent.
The good news?
Kelly has millions of dollars to put into this project and buy her the time she needs to see if this venture will take off?
Stand by…
