Though Kelly had become a darling of the mainstream press as a Fox News personality who often veered from the network’s conservative brand, the Jones incident is just the latest example of how coverage of her work isn’t as sunny as it once was.

“The signs about Megyn Kelly’s one-on-one NBC interview with the despicable conspiracy theorist Alex Jones have been bad from the start,” wrote Washington Post media columnist Margaret Sullivan on Tuesday.

“And then there’s Kelly’s unimpressive track record in interviewing hard-to-pin-down subjects — most recently, Russian President Vladimir Putin, who simply steamrollered her, and last year, when she was still at Fox News, her much-hyped ‘meh’ of an interview with Trump, a broadcast that she concluded by promoting her autobiographical book,” Sullivan added.
