Reply to "Megyn Kelly Hints at Dissatisfaction with Fox News,"

Megyn has done well for herself, on the Fox News network, but I believe she has gotten a little bit of a big head thinking herself to be more indispensable than she most likely is.   I think she was expecting network after network to come fawning over her and starting a bidding war where she could run her salary upwards toward the 40's or 50 million area.   I think maybe the whole process has been a little demeaning to her and she has felt under appreciated.   

You can't blame a person for wanting to make the most they can and take advantage of when they are on fire and at their best.   Who is to say though that she is at that point right now in her career.  Could be that she's waiting to peak but then Fox is wanting to negotiate a contract that is favorable to them in that they expect her to peak well into her contract but then who can blame Fox news for trying to do all they can.

The problem for Fox news is when they were forced to get rid of Roger account of the harassment and sexual allegations.  That move cost them Greta's position as she threw down the gauntlet saying that if he left she would leave so unlike many of the people who stated they would leave (the country) if Trump was elected, she did leave and make good on her word.   OReilly is another that stated that he would leave if Roger was made to leave and looks like he, too, may make good on that promise under the guise of doing other things or semi-retirement saying that he's done all he can do in and with The Factor. 

Fox News certainly has some issues to work out but in releasing Roger I think they made the move they had to make and while there are other changes as long as Fox remains opposed to CNN, CBS, NBC, MSNBC and all the other in the tank biased liberal networks they should keep their viewer base no matter who runs the programming.  It still though remains to be seen if programs like "The Factor" could still flourish without Bill OReilly at the desk running things.  Bill though has also had his problems with sexual misdeeds and accusations from a Fox staffer whom I believe was eventually paid off well and the issue kind of died away without anything actually being revealed if it was true or not.   I tend to believe the accusation and that Bill was guilty of what was accused but I don't know that it was in the area of harassment or if there was any punishment handed out to the person making the accusation. 

I'm sure Fox wants to be in the business of reporting news rather than making it so we'll see where things go from here.
