Fox News star Megyn Kelly signs lucrative book deal
Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly has signed a book deal with HarperCollins, rumored to be worth upwards of $11 million.
Kelly's representatives told Deadline the number is inaccurate, but confirmed that the book — which they say isn't a memoir — will be published in the fall. HarperCollins is a subsidiary of NewsCorp, which runs Fox News, and its senior vice president of creative development, Lisa Sharkey, said in a statement that Kelly is "among the most interesting and influential women in America today, and we are thrilled to be publishing her first book." Sharkey said she's certain Kelly's tome will be "one of the most read and talked about books of the fall." The only question is — how many copies will Donald Trump pre-order?
