A MAGA firebrand ripped Bari Weiss’s rebrand of CBS News during a new broadcast of her podcast on Wednesday, according to a report.
Megyn Kelly, host of the right-wing podcast “The Megyn Kelly Show,” trashed the new CBS News during her latest episode, The Daily Mail reported, going so far as to directly attack the new host of “CBS Evening News,” Tony Dokoupil. Kelly’s comments come at a time when CBS News has taken a rightward turn, prompting many longtime viewers to leave.
Kelly did not mince words when she spoke about Dokoupil, who she said is only in his role because of Weiss’s sexual orientation.
“I figured it out. Bari is an out lesbian, and she’s in a marriage to another woman, and they have kids, and so on. This is a lesbian’s idea of what women want. Like, he’s sweet, he’s soft, this is what this is going to sell,” Kelly said.
She also compared Dokoupil to another popular daytime host, Oprah Winfrey.
“CBS Evening News is officially launched with its new anchor, ‘T’Oprah’ Dokoupil,” Kelly said. “That’s what I call him, because he’s crying and constantly trying to therapize us through the news.”
She also chided him for “patronizing” his audience.
“‘Get up and down on the news and stop trying to handhold your audience like they’re a bunch of babies who need you to stroke them through every update,” Kelly said.
