Megyn Kelly will move to FOX News Channel’s (FNC) primetime
lineup upon her return from maternity leave, announced Roger Ailes,
Chairman and CEO, FOX News. Additionally, the network has signed
long-term deals with Bret Baier, Shepard Smith, Bill O’Reilly, Sean
Hannity and Greta Van Susteren. A new schedule will be announced at
a later date.
In making the announcement, Ailes said, “Megyn is an exceptional
talent who has successfully filled and surpassed each role we have
given her at the network. Her ability to command the screen, delve
into the facts and lead a debate is what makes her one of the most
sought-after anchors in the business.”
Kelly added, “Roger Ailes hired me nine years ago when I was new
to this business and he had little other than instinct to suggest
it might work out. I was grateful to him then, remain so today, and
am excited for this next opportunity.”
Since February 2010, Kelly has anchored the network’s daytime
news program, America Live (1-3PM ET), while appearing in a weekly
primetime segment on The O’Reilly Factor entitled The Kelly File.
Last fall, she co-anchored FOX News Channel's 2012 election night
coverage, alongside Bret Baier, which delivered more than 12
million viewers and finished second among all of the broadcast and
cable networks. Kelly also co-anchored FNC's primetime coverage of
the Republican and Democratic conventions live from Tampa, Fla. and
Charlotte, N.C. Prior to that, she co-anchored the network's 2012
coverage of the presidential primaries and moderated two GOP
presidential debates.
While a correspondent based in Washington, D.C., Kelly was on
site reporting on the Virginia Tech campus massacre and covered the
Duke University rape case involving three of the school's lacrosse
players. Reporting from Durham, North Carolina, she broke new
details that would ultimately help exonerate the defendants. Prior
to this, she covered the Supreme Court and provided wall-to-wall
coverage of the confirmation hearings for U.S. Supreme Court
Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. and Chief Justice John Roberts. In 2009
and 2010, Kelly also co-hosted FNC’s coverage of the confirmation
hearings of Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.
Before joining FNC in 2004, Kelly served as a general assignment
reporter for ABC News affiliate WJLA-TV in Washington. She earned
her Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science from Syracuse
University and a J.D. from Albany Law School, where she graduated
with honors and served as editor of the Albany Law Review. Kelly
then practiced law as a corporate litigator at Jones Day before
transitioning into broadcast television.
