The group that viewed Bombshell before sitting down to talk included Kelly, Juliet Huddy, Rudi Bakhtiar and Julie Zann, plus Kelly's husband, Doug Brunt. A group of us got together & watched, cried & set the record straight." Kelly is portrayed in Bombshell by Charlize Theron, who said she didn't talk with the anchor before doing the film because she thought it would put too much pressure on both of them.
"But in the end I wanted the women who lived it to have the last word. at Fox," the lawyer-turned-anchor tweeted last Thursday before posting the nearly 30-minute segment on her Megyn Kelly YouTube and IGTV channels later in the day. "I wasn't sure if I wanted to say anything re Bombshell, a film re sex harass. And she's assembled others who were victims of that harassment to tell their stories with her.

He’s not a journalist, in the strictest sense of the word.Megyn Kelly is finally speaking out about the movie Bombshell, which explores sexual harassment at her former employer, Fox News. Most cable-news networks and other media outlets have rules about on-air talent aligning themselves with political causes or candidates, though Hannity is often portrayed as part of Fox News’ opinion programming. “We were not aware of Sean Hannity participating in a promotional video and he will not be doing anything along these lines for the remainder of the election season,” the network said in a statement. Last month, Fox News Channel had to tell the host he could no longer appear in promotions for a Presidential candidate after he was spotted making a cameo in an eight-minute-long video from Trump’s campaign that surfaced on YouTube. Hannity has made no secret in recent weeks of his support for Trump’s candidacy.

Their squabbling points to bigger challenges looming at Fox News. Rupert Murdoch, the Fox executive chairman, is supervising their efforts. In his place, the corporate parent company 21 st Century Fox elevated Bill Shine and Jack Abernethy to run Fox News. Ailes denied those charges, as well as other allegations made by women at Fox News and by women from his past. Its former leader and the architect of its popular program schedule, Roger Ailes, was ousted in July after being accused of sexual harassment in a lawsuit from former anchor Gretchen Carlson. The network, arguably the financial linchpin of its parent company, 21 st Century Fox has just suffered what is likely the biggest disruption in its two decades of existence. It’s likely the last thing the new executives running Fox News Channel want to take place.
