Interesting what Megyn Kelly (FOX) said to Huckabee...

Excuse me for ever posting something from fox news, but this was on Huff Post and I find it interesting what she says towards the end.

Amid backlash following Huckabee's remarks, Kelly set the record straight.

“Well, I do have some news for you," Kelly said. "We're not only swearing. We’re drinking, we’re smoking, we’re having premarital sex with birth control before we go to work, and sometimes boss around a bunch of men.”

If she's a feminist & understands what is wrong with what the Huckster said, how can she stand working at Fox??

Competing network executives I have spoken to agree that Kelly could have gone from WJLA to any of the major networks. Jonathan Klein, the CNN/US president from 2004 through 2010, told me it was one of his big regrets that he did not snag Kelly early on. “If you’d have asked me who was the one talent you’d want to have from somewhere else, from another network, I would have said — and did — Megyn Kelly,” Klein told me. “She just hits the right notes.”

But Kelly says Fox was the only other place she wanted to work. “I literally had two hats out there.” Kelly told me. “One was WJLA and one was Fox News.” (Later, it is worth noting, Kelly modified that self-assessment. Had MSNBC called 10 years earlier, before Fox, she would have gone happily. “I’d have done O.K. there, too,” she said.)

If he has presidential hopes, he'll most likely get laughed out of the primaries. If he wants to be vice president, he'll drag down the campaign of whoever he's saddled with because of his extremist views.
