Following George Clooney's apparent jab at Megyn Kelly's journalistic qualifications in a conversation with Broadway great Patti LuPone for Variety's Actors on Actors, Kelly isn't holding back.
In the most recent edition of The Megyn Kelly Show podcast, the former Fox News and NBC anchor addressed Clooney's remarks. "He's starring in a play about Edward R. Murrow because Clooney fancies himself a journalist, you see, and has lots of thoughts on how journalists need to do journalism," Kelly said.
Clooney's op-ed sparks heated debate over Biden's 2024 candidacy
Clooney’sIn his much-discussed New York Times op-ed, he alluded to Kelly's argument that President Joe Biden should withdraw from the 2024 election, stating that "He does it mainly by stumbling upon the biggest story of the decade, that a sitting president is mentally infirm and ought to be 25th Amendment’ed right out of office, and then burying it, saying absolutely nothing for weeks on end."
"Only after that president disgraces himself on the national stage during a presidential debate, and then declines to resign as the whole Democratic Party sees its electoral prospects up and down the ticket swirl down the toilet."
"He eventually chooses to write an opinion piece in the New York Times claiming that Joe Biden is unfit for the position," she said. "That's not journalism, George; it's cowardice and blatant partisanship." Nobody is fooled by you.
Kelly also made fun of Clooney's new Broadway production, Good Night, and Good Luck, saying, "So now he's starring in his Broadway show... by the way, what's the matter, George? Are the Hollywood roles getting a little hard to come by as you age and get decidedly more smug and self-congratulatory? I'm just asking!"

He informed LuPone, "I don't care much about what they say. For example, when we display that montage at the end, we don't tell people what to think. You can see Megyn Kelly, who has stated openly that I am not a journalist. I never stated that I was a journalist.
