Hey John, did you hear? Megyn Kelly was just being funny and messing around with the kids when she cited that Santa was white. She said she was making a funny and that everyone who didn't get that was humorless. So I guess we can all calm down now and breathe a sigh of relief that Megyn isn't nearly as racist as she made herself look when she was being "funny".
I mean, what else could she say in her defense honestly? She HAD to say that she wasn't serious about a mythical fat man in a red suit who supposedly delivers toys all over the world from a giant flying sleigh pulled by eight flying reindeer. If she didn't then we would all have to worry about her mental state. Now her defense did fail to acknowledge her comment of "just because it makes you uncomfortable, doesn't mean in should change". Her "lighthearted" segment and her "tongue in cheek" comments certainly didn't come off as her joking, but I guess that's because we just don't really know her and her sense of humor. I guess everyone that took comments to heart as to how she really feels are the humorless dregs she mentioned.
She then goes on to make herself out to be the victim, as if she were clueless how sensitive the topic of race is in this country. I am completely mystified over the fact that a supposed news anchor was completely unaware how her comments where she states unequivocally that Jesus and Santa are white and how that's a "verifiable fact" weren't going to be seen as racist. She then proceeds to throw Aisha Harris under the bus claiming she was just repeating what Aisha wrote in her Slate.com piece. Poor Megyn, the whole world of the big bad left came knocking on her door and called her names when she was just joking (place pouty face here).
Check out the link below. That is what she said in defense of herself. Grab some tissues.
Megyn tries to remove foot from mouth.
Maybe next time Ms. Kelly won't be so quick to joke about race when talking to the "kids" who are watching her on Fox News.
Errrrrr...REALLY?!? We are somehow supposed to swallow that poor little miss fox news girl had no idea race was a hot topic in this country??? So we should feel bad for the ignorant chick? Whaaaaaaatthefuckever. Maybe she should use Affluenza as part of her defense as well. ~eye roll~
