Megyn Kelly To Alex Jones In Leaked Tape: Im Not Going To Be Barbara Walters

.

The shit's getting real for NBC too.

(EXCERPT)

Adding fuel to the controversial buildup to Megyn Kelly’s upcoming interview with Alex Jones, the conspiracy theorist released late Thursday a secretly recorded conversation with the NBC host.

And it is not flattering to either party, nor Barbara Walters, the celebrated journalist and former NBC “Today Show” host, whom Kelly appeared to diss.

“I’ve never done this in 22 years, I’ve never recorded another journalist,” Jones said in an earlier video on Thursday, which included parts of his off-the-record talk with Kelly. “I’ve never done this but I knew it was a fraud, that it was a lie.”

Considering that pretty much describes your "career" as a "journalist."

Hire trash "journalists" from a trash organization in the name of a false ideological balance, and you're inviting petty scandals and embarassments.

Being sexually harassed and not bowing down to Trump doesn't automatically make one an honest or quality tv news person. She was an attractive assertive blonde woman with a nice voice. That's pretty much it. Still racist and conniving.
