Video: Megyn Kelly destroys Us Weekly bottom-feeder over Palin story

“Babies, Lies, and Scandal” runs the front-cover headline over a photo of the Barracuda. What exactly are the “lies,” asks Kelly? Simply the lies that are being told about Palin, comes the reply from this galactic tool, live on satellite hook-up from the media’s tank for Obama.
And it’s all downhill from there.
Not really an interview so much as a cross-examination. Awesome.

I love Megyn. *sigh*
cyclosarin on September 3, 2008 at 7:27 PM
Is she trained as an attorney by any chance?
Professor Blather on September 3, 2008 at 7:25 PM
A graduate of Albany Law School with an undergraduate degree in political science from Syracuse University, is an attorney who practiced as a litigator with Jones Day in New York City, Chicago and Washington, D.C..

Answer your question? :-)
And she got married in March 2008, dammit!
coldwarrior on September 3, 2008 at 7:29 PM
Fantastic point. That Bradly guy would have really stuttered then. He would have surely slumped down into his seat; slowly sliding along the contours like the blob of useless jelly that he is.
carbon_footprint on September 3, 2008 at 7:29 PM
Needs ass kicked:
X Bradley
whitetop on September 3, 2008 at 7:30 PM
I almost love Megyn more than Sarah.
I would like to stick that magazine down this pretty boy’s throat.
molonlabe28 on September 3, 2008 at 7:30 PM
She should have just called him a lying sack of manure.
Bob's Kid on September 3, 2008 at 7:30 PM
Bradley Jacobs finally fessed up:
Babies: that’s Edward’s baby(s) with mistress(es).
Lies: that’s the lies by US magazine.
Scandle: that’s for Rezko and Ayers and Wright.
Just happens they have a picture of Palin they can use on the front cover. She has nothing to do with the story. :)

Ha she ate that little bitch up. Nice.
Dash on September 3, 2008 at 7:31 PM
Well, she is an attorney. Megyn-cudda.
Mallard T. Drake on September 3, 2008 at 7:31 PM
Awesome. His family will need dental records to identify the corpse.
JammieWearingFool on September 3, 2008 at 7:32 PM
Ok so not all lawyers are bad…right?
HawaiiLwyr on September 3, 2008 at 7:32 PM
Screw Us Magazine, their tweezed eyebrows, their bleached teeth, their coiffed hair, and their squirming guilty grin.
It puts the lotion on its skin.
RushBaby on September 3, 2008 at 7:32 PM
Talking about a barracuda….
d1carter on September 3, 2008 at 7:33 PM
Does anyone else think that some of the women in the media might just be a wee bit pissed off at how Ms. Palin is being treated?
jukin on September 3, 2008 at 7:34 PM
Is that what that racket was? :)
backwoods conservative on September 3, 2008 at 7:35 PM
I watched the gutting of this bottom feeder live tonight. I found myself yelling at Megyn Kelly “Keep hitting him, Megyn” at the television!
And she did!
IrishGirl17 on September 3, 2008 at 7:35 PM
Tagged, Bagged and Dragged. That’s gonna leave a mark!!
Riderbob on September 3, 2008 at 7:35 PM
I think it’s lucky for him she ran out of time. She was getting madder by the minute.
backwoods conservative on September 3, 2008 at 7:37 PM
Girlie man.
Elizabetty on September 3, 2008 at 7:38 PM
That schmuck was like a lamb led to the slaughter. Yet another lib hack intimidated by a strong intelligent woman.
wildcat84 on September 3, 2008 at 7:38 PM
Stong women like Kelly turn me on.
I watched this while it happened. She took that a** clown to task.
madmonkphotog on September 3, 2008 at 7:39 PM
Love Meghan….remember her first day on FNC and Shep told her, on camera, she was a pretty gal. She looked rather pissed at that and I have admired her ever since. Saw this ‘interview’ this afternoon and was hooting. That gal can lay one out quicker than I can …ahem, pass gas!
dustoffmom on September 3, 2008 at 7:40 PM
Megan Kelly is on fire! Sing it sister! Bravo!
ronsfi on September 3, 2008 at 7:40 PM
Down goes Bradley, down goes Bradely!!! (in my best Howard Cosell imitation.)
Mallard T. Drake on September 3, 2008 at 7:40 PM
I wish I would have seen it live. I think she did great!
hawkdriver on September 3, 2008 at 7:41 PM
Ooops….sorry for misspelling your name gal. Make that Megyn!
dustoffmom on September 3, 2008 at 7:41 PM
Wow.. that girl is amazing. I guess she is probably on during the day when I work.
What a lady!
Noelie on September 3, 2008 at 7:41 PM
She’s awesome! I just wish she had 30 minutes to properly rip this a$$ to shreds. What a bunch of garbage. 3 minutes into it and she was just getting all steamed up. Imagine a few more minutes of seething anger from her! Damn it – this was a tease.
ayrab on September 3, 2008 at 7:42 PM
you guys thought it was that awesome. He basically said, “whatever” and left to count his money.
tlynch001 on September 3, 2008 at 7:43 PM
Bradley Jacobs is a certified buffoon who is so deep in the tank for B.O., it’s not funny. US Weekly is a bottom of the birdcage rag that does nothing but find dirt on anyone and everyone. Mad Magazine does a better job with objective journalism than US Weekly. If anything, that smirk Meghan wiped right off of Jacob’s face discredited him without him so much as uttering a peep.
pilamaye on September 3, 2008 at 7:43 PM
If you listen closely, you can hear his panties squishing in his self-made puddle.
crash72 on September 3, 2008 at 7:44 PM
She is on with Bill Hemmer from 0900 till 1100 ET and during the conventions they have likewise been on from 1700-1900. But she is also on all the time with O’Reilley, Shep and Greta as well. A full time worker is she! :) If you watch Fox News at all much you have to work at not seeing her!
dustoffmom on September 3, 2008 at 7:44 PM
US magazine is published by Jann Wenner (Big time Democrat $upporter and Obama fan), who is also publisher of Rolling Stone Magazine (Obama on cover twice) and Men’s Journal.
albill on September 3, 2008 at 7:45 PM
I have only 3 things to say aside from the obvious hit job by US weekly and now pathetic attempt at damage control for the screaming bias between the covers for Barack and Sarah Palin.
1. If the RNC needs a whiteboard, this idiots forehead would do nicely.
2. He is going to need another toilet for the new ass he just received.
3. Me, Megyn, sandwich.
That is all.
Geronimo on September 3, 2008 at 7:47 PM
Hmm, I got here late it looks like. To me, it seems the guy knows it’s a bullsh!t story, but probably Jann Wenner told him this story is running and if he wanted to have a future in publishing he damn well better run it and defend it.
rbj on September 3, 2008 at 7:47 PM
There’s floaters, sinkers, and bottom feeders. When one finally gets past the smell, the stink is unbearable from these rotten liberals!
VOTE McCAIN – PALIN

dustoffmom on September 3, 2008 at 7:50 PM
Now THERE’S some news – Matthews considers himself to be an elite.
Jim M. on September 3, 2008 at 7:52 PM
Yes, and a typical Obama supporter. Started Rolling Stone by stealing a mailing list from the radio station he worked at. Left his wife of 28 years and children for another man 19 years his junior. Adopted a child with his “co-Father”. Now he’s cheating on his partner with another man. And Jann Wenner hearts Obama.
Jim M. on September 3, 2008 at 7:55 PM
Another bloody victim of Megyn Hotbody!
thekingtut on September 3, 2008 at 7:56 PM
Not 100% certain…is this a compliment or a slam? I find Megyn an exceptionally attractive, no, quite beautiful woman….one who’s beauty is greatly enhanced by a razor sharp wit and an excess of brain power! one woman to another…you keep going gal!!
dustoffmom on September 3, 2008 at 8:02 PM
I agree — too easy on him. The piece in his magazine was a case study in Lord of the Flies journalism on a par with anything produced in recent memory. That he could say there wasn’t enough “time” to get facts right and confirm slanderous accusations? Incredible. The savage little children are loose.
rrpjr on September 3, 2008 at 8:05 PM
What we need is some Trial Lawyers that are not liberals (are there any) to sue this paper and donate the bankruptcy to the Palin family.
Where does the media find such scumbags?
typical white person on September 3, 2008 at 8:05 PM
He is SUCH a piece of …..!
Star20 on September 3, 2008 at 8:08 PM
What and unbelievable piece of dirt. Anyone who can google could have read all about “trooper-gate” months ago and learned all about the cop tasering his kid and threatening Palin’s family.
“err…ahhh…well… this was a breaking story…”
When I see people like this, I regret that we no long have public flogging.
Are there any lawyers here? Slander suits need to start today.
Damiano on September 3, 2008 at 8:08 PM
Ewww.
Geronimo on September 3, 2008 at 8:08 PM
US magaize had time to interview friends, schoolmates and officials related to Sarah Palin yet the editor in the clip says they didn’t have time to report the truth?
Such as:
The tasering of a 10 year old?
The threat of violence made by State Trooper against his wife?
Palin’s non-membership to the Alaskan Independence party?
It took me 1 minute to type those three things!
Montana on September 3, 2008 at 8:10 PM
If Homer had written this, the clip would have ended with Megyn Kelly dragging this dolt’s carcass behind her chariot in front of the US magazine headquarters.
sulla on September 3, 2008 at 8:12 PM
dustoffmom, it comes from the Neal Boortz show. He was having trouble remembering he last name, so he just called her Megyn Hotbody.
thekingtut on September 3, 2008 at 8:15 PM
Gee, Megyn made that guy sound like Obama.
“Uhh…er…well, you see…um…”
fossten on September 3, 2008 at 8:16 PM
Apparently, Megyn took a hint from Sarah’Cuda and bagged her own beast – even going as far as field dressing him on national television. Except it wasn’t a moose…just an ass.
ManlyRash on September 3, 2008 at 8:19 PM
Bradley Jacobs = EPIC FAIL
The Ugly American on September 3, 2008 at 8:20 PM
te-he….gotta love that Neal! Missed this show and had not heard his ‘nickname’….apologies sent for sortta taking offense! :)

Yes, but they’re professionals.
/sarc
Seriously – the point I’m taking from this article, and the pro-Obama “Meet Sarah Palin” piece Entertainment Tonight (the female human likes it…aargh!) ran yesterday is that Hollyweird is all the way in the tank for Obama.
Mew
(how can an “Intro” piece be pro-Obama? All the Palin appearances were stills with voice-over, the only vid clip was Obama saying “Leave the kids alone”…)
acat on September 3, 2008 at 8:20 PM
I guess he wasn’t expecting to be called out for his hit piece. I bet we don’t see him facing Judge Kelly again. Humiliation does that to these roaches.
thekingtut on September 3, 2008 at 8:22 PM
This is one of those times when Fox’s transparent bias is heartwarming. And I’m not even kidding.
Enrique on September 3, 2008 at 8:23 PM
In spades! That’s what I was hoping for, too.
Mr_Magoo on September 3, 2008 at 8:24 PM
That’s okay Dustoffmom. I’d never diss Megyn. Especially after seeing her destroy this idiot.
thekingtut on September 3, 2008 at 8:25 PM
The wrath of a woman scorned…
clancy_wiggum on September 3, 2008 at 8:27 PM
Is anyone adept at tracking down email addresses of the rich and famous (Jann Wenner)?
Mr_Magoo on September 3, 2008 at 8:27 PM
I remember when Neal said it Dustoffmom. it was just after he came back from his knee surgery.
Forget it Mr Magoo, people just need to stop buying his trash. I myself have never read Rolling Stone. Or anything else he publishes.
thekingtut on September 3, 2008 at 8:31 PM
Wow. Who vetted
Jim Treacher on September 3, 2008 at 8:32 PM
Take 2:
Wow. Who vetted him?
Jim Treacher on September 3, 2008 at 8:33 PM
Megyn would have made a great instructor in SERE school. Yikes!
mjtyson on September 3, 2008 at 8:38 PM
The joke’s on him – he’s an editor for Us Magazine.
ray_d_eightor on September 3, 2008 at 8:38 PM
Wow. She just killed him.
Kat_Mo on September 3, 2008 at 8:41 PM
Kelly is a tough interviewer, I have seen her with regularity challenge peoples weak or misleading answers to her questions.
But if you are going to get spanked on national television… there are worse ways.
Hog Wild on September 3, 2008 at 8:47 PM
Dude, she was getting pissed on that Alaska Independence Party question.
She pwned that metrosexual little douche.
austinnelly on September 3, 2008 at 8:49 PM
I see US Weekly has scrubbed the 5,500 comments from view. I sure hope nobody’s starting to get scared. That would be terrible.
pc on September 3, 2008 at 9:10 PM
Attorney here .. don’t know if she’s one of the brethren, but if she isn’t, she should be.
Well done Megyn.
cgoode777 on September 3, 2008 at 9:39 PM
What do you say about Megyn? Intelligent, well spoken, conservative, hot…
I’ve been a fan of hers for a long time, and I’m glad we’re seeing her more and more on Fox. Go Megyn!!
mr.blacksheep on September 3, 2008 at 9:39 PM
LOVE. HER.
flyawaybird on September 3, 2008 at 9:41 PM
Why did he show up?
To stir up interest in his magazine.
It almost doesn’t matter that she took him to school-he got what he wanted.
I did love her taking him to task, though.
Doug on September 3, 2008 at 9:58 PM
I doubt Megyn did much to help sell that rag. Pretty much exposed it for tripe.
cgoode777 on September 3, 2008 at 10:01 PM
Awesome. Megyn rocks.
Would that more media would do that sort of actual, you know, asking-tough-questions thing of the media and the left (but I repeat myself).
Paul_in_NJ on September 3, 2008 at 10:19 PM
Megyn Kelly is the most awesome woman on TV. . . in an all around sense. That guy was ridiculous, but the only reason he came on was for the publicity for his magazine. That magazine has zero credibility and should be sued for libel (whichever one is the written one).
ThackerAgency on September 3, 2008 at 10:26 PM
scum bag – Way to go Megan!
iam7545 on September 3, 2008 at 10:31 PM
I’ve never quite wanted to pummel another human being quite as much as I would Bradley.
Potfry on September 3, 2008 at 10:40 PM
This poor, gulping, blinking, hyperventilating little queer should have more carefully considered making an appearance on camera.
“Over his head” doesn’t even begin to cover it.
As for “the readers reading this story themselves” – why would any thinking person open this worthless fairy gossip rag?
Jaibones on September 3, 2008 at 11:20 PM
Wiki says her name change was from a divorce, not a marriage, as I had assumed.
If true, I have a strong candidate for stupidest man in America.
Jaibones on September 3, 2008 at 11:29 PM
He kept bringing up how “measured” the story is… Did he suddenly become obsessed with measurement as he was being emasculated?
Major Smarm factor with that guy.
Candy Slice on September 3, 2008 at 11:38 PM
I hate to use this word, but this person is a lying, worthless, cowardly piece of sh+t.
His disgusting rag is a pathetic joke barely fit to use to wipe your ass
God, I hate these scum; I hate what they do and try to do, I hate their lack of morality or standards or honesty or ethics. I hate their sleazy, slimy toilet ‘reporting’
When he dies, the worst of hell awaits him
Janos Hunyadi on September 3, 2008 at 11:46 PM
I SO LOVE strong women!
Especially when they’re totally dismembering some metrosexual fool!
You go girl!
Uncle_Greg on September 3, 2008 at 11:52 PM
Did that moron actually say this was a news story?? Like US prints news? Love Ms. Kelly though.
momof2 on September 4, 2008 at 12:00 AM
Now if O’Reilly did the interview it might go like: well you might some valid points there…
OReilly is ging down fast in my book. Megan ging up fast.
wepeople on September 4, 2008 at 12:07 AM
Did you learn that trick at band camp?
soundingboard on September 4, 2008 at 12:11 AM
Palin/Kelly 2012!
GT on September 4, 2008 at 12:11 AM
How can a walking, talking joke like that even pretend to take his line of work seriously?
