'NBC says it has nothing to hide,' Kelly said. 'Great! Let's not hide anything.'
In her first TV appearance since her firing from NBC News, Megyn Kelly on Wednesday night called for an"outside investigation" into her former employer over allegations made by reporter Ronan Farrow in his new bookFarrow unleashed criticism on NBC News executives over their alleged poor handling of accusations against disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein in the new book, released on Tuesday.
During her appearance on Fox News' Tucker Carlson on Wednesday, Megyn Kelly condemned her former employer NBC and called for an"outside investigation" of the network.Carlson noted that before her exit from NBC, Kelly had expressed support for an outside investigation into sexual harassment allegations against Lauer.
"There needs to be an outside investigation into this company. They investigated themselves. That doesn't work. Fox News had an outside investigator. CBS News had an outside investigator. NPR, the NFL. This is how it's done," Kelly asserted, before calling on NBC to release any current and former staffers from confidentiality agreements related to Lauer.
Although NBC denies it, Farrow's book also accuses the network of paying out Lauer accusers before his firing with settlements to silence them from going public with their allegations. Kelly called the alleged move a"legal sleight-of-hand."
