Megyn Kelly leaving Fox News for NBC
New York
FOR Megyn Kelly, the shift from Fox News to NBC - where she will host a daily daytime show and a Sunday newsmagazine programme - will be a test of whether she can connect with a broader audience in a different format and reach another level of television stardom.
But her move, announced on Tuesday, has broader implications for the television news industry, raising new questions about the future of Fox News, where she was a countervailing presence in an opinion lineup heavy with right-leaning ideology, and of NBC News, which has been a longtime bête noire for conservative press critics. And it comes as all news organisations gird for a new era of media coverage that arrives on Jan 20 with the inauguration of Donald Trump.
