Megyn Kelly Ridicules GOP Debate Letter: Want A Foot Massage Too?

http://a4.img.talkingpointsmemo.com/image/upload/c_fill,fl_keep_iptc,g_faces,h_365,w_652/n2xhdixlbw9xdljetimv.jpg

Fox News host Megyn Kelly on Monday night mocked the letter drafted by Republican presidential campaigns listing a series of rules and questions for networks hosting future debates.

After listing some of the demands, including that networks not allow lightning rounds or candidate-to-candidate questioning, Kelly jokingly suggested, "And then maybe the foot massage?"

She then criticized the campaigns' request that they approve any graphics about the candidates ahead of the debate

"Can you imagine having to submit our graphics for approval to the candidates? Good luck with that," she said.

And never will as long as Roger Ailes has a steel ring through the nose of every one of the candidates to tug one as needed.

Being able to have a controlled media is still one of the missing ingredients recommended by Goebbels.
