Megyn Kelly Roasts CNN’s Abby Phillips Over Race Obsession: ‘You Would Have Thought It Was 1949’

Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly shredded CNN anchor Abby Phillip, who she accused of playing the race and gender card during her primetime show.

Kelly, who hosts her own show on Sirius XM, also tore into one of the black female panelists on Phillip’s show who claimed she is discriminated against.

“They’re really not letting go of the race thing. So they’ve got this show on, hosted by Abby Phillip, who is as woke as they come on every issue. She thinks she’s downtrodden, poor her because she’s a black woman, and therefore we’re supposed to be feeling sorry for her. She made that very clear in a segment the other night, but she makes it clear in pretty much all of her segments. So this is a segment in which she had on two black women as guests… and two white men as well, along with one white woman. And the two white men are names that our guests, our audience probably know, Scott Jennings, who’s the only fair guy over there on CNN and Republican and our pal, Arthur Aidala, who’s a lawyer… He got completely ambushed…,” Kelly said.

“Honestly, all these women are extremely successful, you would have thought that it was 1949 America the way this thing went down. It’s incredibly frustrating to watch that kind of thing… I guarantee Abby Phillip was out there, just as bad as the other two. I guarantee you she’s making over a million dollars, and yet she’s still – like Michelle Obama – wants us to think this is a racist, sexist country that won’t reward her adequately for her talents…,” the host said.

“She’s going, ‘I don’t have the same opportunity. I’ve been the least paid in all my job.’ How do you know that’s due to your color and your gender? Maybe you were the youngest, maybe you had the least experience? Maybe you actually just weren’t that talented. I’ve seen you on TV. You’re fine. You’re not a star. You’re never going to get your own show. There’s a reason they haven’t offered it to you yet. It’s not because you’re a black woman, because you’re on the show of a black woman,” Kelly said.

“Clearly, CNN doesn’t have a problem with that. Maybe you’re just not that talented. Maybe you’re not quite as good on television or in the White House for Obama, who I don’t think has a bias against black women as you think you are. But this is their chance to get out there, even though the nation has just issued a referendum on the nonsense around this kind of thinking to say, you’re all wrong. We’re victims,” she said.
