Megyn Kelly's NBC News morning program, Megyn Kelly Today, is set to debut one week from today, on Sept. 25 at 9 a.m., but there are already some serious concerns about her role at the network. "We are just bracing ourselves and hoping [the reception of Megyn Kelly Today] is less bad than the reception of [her] Sunday show," one NBC staffer told Vanity Fair.
Kelly left Fox News for NBC News in January after 12 years at the conservative-leaning network. She was reportedly drawn to NBC's morning show offer because it would leave her with more time to spend with her children and husband, and as part of her move, she also signed on for a Sunday night news show, which aired over the summer. Her salary is estimated to be more than $17 million.
