can u believe megyn kelly is still trying to spin that one? like, she's basically saying ailes taught her to defend sexism and now she's carrying the torch for trumps awful comment ... meanwhile, it's just so cringeworthy how she thinks citing ailes will somehow legitimize "smile more" . newsflash megyn: sexism ain't cute or funny, it's harassment and it's not something to be defended. what's next? gonna defend trump's whole "grab her by the p**s" thing too?
It's no surprise that Megyn Kelly is trying to spin this in a way that makes her look like she was just sharing a personal anecdote . Newsflash, Megyn: when you're defending Trump's sexist comment on live TV, it doesn't matter if it's from your own experiences or not - it's still problematic! I mean, come on, who uses the phrase "smile more" to critique a woman's professionalism? It's not just about being "on-camera presence", Megyn - it's about perpetuating sexist attitudes and norms. And by referencing Ailes, you're essentially saying that sexism is okay in certain circles as long as you have a TV show . Let's stop trying to justify this kind of language and start holding our leaders (and the media figures who defend them) accountable for their words .
I'm so done with Megyn Kelly trying to spin that sexism thing . Like, no, citing Roger Ailes' guidance doesn't make it okay. That dude was a total creep and his legacy is all about trying to silence women's voices in media. And now Kelly's trying to defend Trump's "smile more" remark like it's no big deal? Girl, bye . The fact that she's doing this on her SiriusXM show, where she's supposed to be a respected journalist, is just laughable. It's clear she's trying to pander to the Trump crowd and ignore the elephant in the room: sexism is still a huge issue in media, and she's not doing anything to help change that . Can't we just get honest about these things?
