As Twitchy told you, NBC has reportedly given Megyn Kelly the boot following comments she made about darkening one’s skin in order to dress up as someone of a different race on Halloween. For many of her critics, Kelly’s comments amounted to “defending blackface.”
Well, we have no doubt that NBC execs are pretty darn proud of themselves for nipping this problematic problem in the bud. That’s just how they roll over there. Putting out fires as soon as they start.
Or … not. As Comfortably Smug so snarkily illustrates, the Megyn Kelly dust-up only shines a glaring spotlight on NBC’s messed-up priorities:
NBC owns because they were principled enough to fire Megyn Kelly in a few days but Matt Lauer ran a rape dungeon in his office with a button under his desk for years

Give yourselves a big hand, NBC. You’ve really covered yourselves in glory the past several years.
NBC threatens reporters who dig into the sexual harassment at their company but THANK GOD they got rid of Megyn Kelly https://t.co/c30gM4VFNA

Thank goodness.
Megyn Kelly should have tried to hide a story about sexual assault and and enable NBC anchors to sexually harass/assault coworkers and she'd still have a job at NBC

If only she’d thought of that. Oh well. Hindsight’s 20/20.
