Megyn Kelly rips ‘annoying’ CNN host Abby Phillip for cutting off Vivek Ramaswamy
NY Post
Megyn Kelly took aim at “annoying” CNN anchor Abby Phillip for being “such an interrupter” while moderating a town hall with Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy on Wednesday.
“Like shut the eff up. Let him make his point,” Kelly said during Thursday’s broadcast of her SiriusXM podcast “The Megyn Kelly Show.”
Kelly criticized Phillip for calling out Ramaswamy while he was claiming that federal law enforcement agents encouraged the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the US Capitol.
Ramaswamy, the biotech mogul, said Jan. 6 was a case of “government entrapment” and that “we know there were federal law enforcement agents in that field” before Congress was overrun by supporters of then-President Donald Trump to prevent certification of former Vice President Joe Biden’s election victory.
Phillip pressed Ramaswamy on his use of the phrase “inside job” to describe the events of Jan. 6.
When Ramaswamy said “we know there were federal law enforcement agents in that field,” Phillip cut him off, saying: “There’s no evidence that there were federal agents in the crowd on Jan. 6.”
