(sigh... just go AWAY please?) Megyn sips on her both-cider and blames the Media for The Siege

[Montauk6]

Former Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly has expressed her belief that the media should assume blame for its alleged role in giving rise to the Capitol riot by a pro-Trump mob.

In a recent interview with BBC's Newsnight, Kelly, who was also a host at NBC News from 2017 to 2018, railed against the mainstream media for failing to cover former President Donald Trump objectively and concluded that its actions led to the Capitol insurgence earlier this month.

"Part of the reason why we saw what happened on the Capitol here two weeks ago was because there was a complete lack of trust, destruction of trust in the media and people don't know where to turn for true information," she said. "They don't trust the media anymore and it's a major problem."

Kelly said the "media destroyed themselves but Trump certainly helped."

1. fox as part of the media is to blame for the insurrection

[Thekaspervote]

2. You then are a big part of the problem..face it

3. I detest her but the truth is that M$Greedia repeated the Trump election lies over and over

That cannot be denied

5. Oh we can go back further for that matter

M$Greedia, as you put it (and well played, I might add) were part and parcel with his rise to power to begin with. That's why I take people like ScarMink with a grain of salt because they and others gave the most over-the-top free unfettered 24/7 coverage that any campaign manager would kill for. Wasn't it Les Moonves who said that Trump would be lousy for the country but he's great for the networks?

Also, you can blame M$G for seeding doubt with the notion of Joe Biden being senile and not in the right health for the job, forget that the then-occupant and people surrounding showed more signs of brain damage but let's just ignore that, right?

6. Great post

For profit media gave us Donald Trump - it's that simple - all their effin' bosideism on steroids

4. Why is anyone interviewing her?

Her 15 minutes expired a long time ago. Don't we have enough Reich Barbies?

No, I didn't watch her puff piece movie. Sorry, but I have no sympathy for Reich Barbies. The damage they've done to our country far exceeds any kind of sympathy I could scrounge up for her worthless ass.

7. The media has a trust issue?

Like the number one cable news channel, FOX News?

Like the number one daily newspaper, The Wall Street Journal?

Like the number one national radio show, Rush Limbaugh?

The problem is not that people don't trust the media.

The problem is that people trust the media too much.
