BTW - What "invasion" of Vietnam are you babbling about now?

I am afraid this is my first encounter with this person.
I just tried to make a few reasonable and factual points to the discussion.
However, I can see now "discussion" is not their goal.

See how the massive brainwashing has left USians unable to address anything in a serious fashion.

Does that oh so common phony excuse have its own meme number? It must.

Her show on Fox was actually very good. She was great in short segments where she could mix tough questions with humor and a back and forth between multiple guests. Lengthy, serious interviews just don't seem to be working for her. She doesn't need to go back to Fox, but she does need to go back to the format that worked so well for her.

Exactly!

I was hoping NBC would use her just as you described. She would be awesome at MSNBC primetime, IMO. Let her provide a more balanced voice. She often was excellent at Fox, and I felt she would really blossom if given the freedom. She's capable of far more. Let her be a centrist Chris Mathews or Bill O'Reilly! Hell, I'd love to find a centrist "partisan" show! Is there such a thing? Partisan to be a centrist? Lead the way!
 
I feel bad for Billy Bush.

IMO he was wrongfully fired from NBC and was a good fit in the 9 am the slot.

He deserves to be hosting again and went through a lot last year. Got a divorce and his teenage daughter was fighting alcohol and drugs.

I'm sure that I recall that one of her reasons for leaving Fox was that the hours were not convenient for her family. She wanted to do a daytime talk show, and have the option to have an occasional prime time interview, which is what she got at NBC.

She was definitely the best at Fox, though I can understand her wanting to leave, with sexual harassment, and being forced to wear "attractive" clothing as females at Fox are required. It is sad that she really believes Santa Claus is white .... (lol, I think she might have rethought that) and even after being attacked viciously by Trump, she was still willing to give him a softball interview.
It is difficult to imagine who her daytime audience might be? I don't watch any daytime TV, but those people that I know that do are pretty attached to "their shows" and it's gonna take some super performance for Kelly to break in.

Jane Fonda had previously discussed her plastic surgery with other leftist hosts. Megan assumed this a acceptable topic of conversation. The difference was these others hosts were not as pretty as Megan Kelley, with her youthful and clear skin. Megan does not need plastic surgery at this time. It may have been easier for Jana to discuss plastic surgery with someone who needed and used it.

The result was an awkward situation of a pretty girl, asking an older famous women, whose rose was past its bloom, details about her experience trying to preserve her dried rose. The left is shallow, which is why this was reacted too in such an irrational way, especially by Hollywood. If Jane Fonda or Hollywood had more depth, Jane would have laughed and just been gracious. But since she is shallow, this created a panic, less Megan starting smearing her make up even more.

Megan is not just talk show host. She was originally a corporate defense attorney, then a political commentator and journalist for FOX. Working on the left, she can't use all her lawyer and journalists skills, since everything is expected to stay shallow; name calling or gossip. Megan seems to wants to go back into the deep water, but she is not allowed past her ankles or else the audience will panic; fear of drowning. She is now splashing the water, trying to swim in ankle deep water.

The money is very good but she is starting to want more; both the money and some deep water swimming. This may not be a good fit for the left wing media, since too much truth and data is not good for gossip. Maybe the compromise will be waist deep water, instead of over the head. For example, there are two teams forming in the Democratic party. Megan might be able to get the discussion to go deeper. This will help the Democratic party reinvent itself to keep up with the changing times.

I don't think Megyn Kelly will be applying for government assistance in the future.......

Bush was a virtue-signaling fire. His job at Access Hollywood was to fluff the talent and be that chameleon would could interface with whatever personality he was interviewing. His job was to loosen people up so that they'd make good television, and he was good at it.
That said, I didn't think he was a good fit at NBC and don't think he meshed well with his co-anchors. Just not the right energy, so when he was fired, I wasn't surprised.

I'm sorry he experienced so many personal hardships at once, because I think he's a likable guy.

Considering that she has about $60 million left on that idiotic contract Comcast signed you are correct.

The only thing that makes sense is for Comcast to build a hard hitting investigative journalism show around her, that is all that she is good for, but laying aside that our so-called journalists rarely do that anymore it is doubtful that she is up to the workload of doing that.

They cant put her on the cable network, she would only do harm there.

She cant stay where she is....

$60 million is a lot to eat...

What to do...

That can't be true, JMR, Fox is the bulwark conservative family values channel.

Well that is what she said on Fox:
At the close of Tuesday's "Kelly File," Kelly said she felt a "human connection" to her viewers and also treasures that "particularly when it comes to my children, who are 7, 5 and 3," signaling that her nighttime schedule was a key factor in her decision.

"I have grown up here and been given every chance a young reporter could ever ask for," she said, praising Rupert Murdoch's family for its kindness toward her. Her last show at Fox airs Friday.

Whether that is true or not...well I guess one would have to evaluate how much truth is spoken on Fox.

She went on later to tell Ellen Degeneres that she left because of Trump.

The part I put in bold is really the nub of it all.

Her parting words for Fox were all the regular boilerplate, words to make new employers think that she won't point out their huge flaws.

Are you suggesting Billy Bush was fired because he was not a good fit and didn't mesh well with his co-anchors?

Yeah, life's a real bitch for the Bushes, but not at all for the 50,000 Nicaraguans Bush 1 helped slaughter or the how many tens of millions of Iraqis and Afghans' lives Bush 2 wrecked.

I think it was part of it, which is just my hunch and not based on anything else. Just watching that 9' o'clock hour, I thought there wasn't chemistry amongst the anchors-same for the Rio Olympics.

Billy Bush was fired because of his participation in the conversation caught on tape with Donald Trump.

“I was ashamed and embarrassed,” Bush, told the magazine of the Trump scandal. “And then I went through stages of grieving because I lost my career. For a man, that’s the ultimate degradation.”

He said he understands his role in the Access Hollywood clip. “There is a term for what I did,” he said. “It’s called bystander abuse. It says by not doing anything you are endorsing the moment. I have to live with that.”
