Journalist and broadcaster Megyn Kelly humorously invited ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith to join her in her program, as she joined in as a guest on Smith’s own.
In her appearance on “The Stephen A. Smith Show,” journalist and broadcaster Megyn Kelly talked about a potential hosting collaboration with ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith.
“My goal on [my] show is to remain relentlessly factual in a sea of misinformation and help people understand what’s real,” she said. “I would never go back to cable news ever, or broadcast news. There are rumors that I’m doing it every other week on the internet. They’re all lies. I don’t know how people get away with making this stuff up. It’s all lies. I love what I’m doing and I wouldn’t change a thing.”
“It’s a new day and I’m loving it.”
“Should I be on the same channel as Megyn Kelly? Stephen A. Smith asked his guest for the episode. “Should Megyn Kelly and Stephen A. Smith end up on the same channel? I don’t know if I’m qualified.”
To which Kelly responded with: “Come on over, the water’s fine.”
Megyn Kelly Gives Honest Take on DEI Issue
In the same interview, Megyn Kelly also talked about her honest take on the topic of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), a topic that has sparked heated discussion from both sides of the political spectrum.
For Kelly, the idea of DEI per se is not problematic, but rather the strong focus of it on the equity part, which she described as “illegal and immoral.”
“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with diversity, and if I, you know, were remaking America, I would make sure we had it in all forms and all places,” Kely said. “I’d make sure we have lots of different people with lots of different backgrounds and lots of different ideological views running different corporations.”
“But that’s not really what DEI is,” she added. “DEI is mostly focused on the E, the equity, which is just a joke. Equity means you have the right to end up in the same place, irrespective of how much effort goes into it. That is not an American value. That is not something I value or share in at all.”
“That’s equity, and it’s immoral. So I’m completely opposed to it.”
Megyn Kelly is an American journalist and political commentator who gained prominence as a host on Fox News from 2004 to 2017, later moving to NBC News before launching her independent media platform, The Megyn Kelly Show.
