Megyn Kelly is leaving Fox News to join NBC News, NBC announced Tuesday.
Kelly was with Fox News for 12 years, most recently as the host of The Kelly Files, but was offered triple her role at NBC News, where she will host an hour-long daytime news show Monday through Friday, a Sunday night news show, and participate in the network’s special programs, such as major event coverage. The new schedule is reportedly appealing to Kelly in part because, with a daytime show, she will have more time to spend with her children and husband.
