Megyn Kelly’s debut at NBC was a disaster.
Her show tanked in the ratings and she generated a swarm of negative publicity.
Now news is breaking that could change her career forever.
Megyn Kelly’s NBC run is off to a rocky start.
Her Sunday news magazine show has been beaten in the ratings by reruns of America’s Funniest Home Videos and 60 Minutes.
NBC is paying her a fortune and the contract looks to be an albatross for the network.
And there are already rumblings NBC wants out.
Inside scoop: NBC now trying to get rid of Megyn Kelly. Even trying to get FOX to buy out her contract and take her back.

NBC will have to take her off the network – if they are stuck with her, they'll give her an MSNBC show

But Breitbart reported an exclusive that Kelly would not be welcomed back at Fox News:
“Controversy usually creates cash and big ratings—except if you are NBC News’ Megyn Kelly.
After Kelly’s controversial and much-hyped interview with Alex Jones tanked by again failing to beat out reruns of 60 Minutes and America’s Funniest Home Videos, New York radio host Mark Simone tweeted on Monday that NBC is trying to unload Kelly and convince Fox News to take her back.
But a high-ranking Fox News source told Breitbart News that there is “no way” Kelly could come back to the network. Quite simply, the source told Breitbart News, Kelly “would not be welcomed back.”
It would be easy for NBC to quietly cancel her Sunday night show.
Her program is already scheduled for hiatus once NBC begins broadcasting the Sunday night NFL telecast.
No one would notice if NBC shelved her program for good after her show goes dark during Sunday night football.
But if Kelly moves to MSNBC, will the left leaning network’s audience accept her?
She was a hero to the left for attacking Trump during the 2016 GOP primary, but her liberal admirers quickly turned on her when she interviewed Trump supporter Alex Jones.
Because she burned her bridges with Fox and will never be liberal enough for NBC, Kelly could end up without a natural landing spot for a program.
Will this be the end of Megyn Kelly?
