Megyn Kelly’s firing from the 9am hour of the ‘Today’ show has been good for ratings.
via Page Six:
Variety reports that since Kelly was canned about three weeks ago, “viewership in the key demographic favored by advertisers in that time period is up around 10 percent.”
The news will perhaps not surprise NBC brass, who saw viewers abandon the time slot in droves after Kelly took over from Tamron Hall and Al Roker in 2017.
Anecdotally, “Today” also saw a spike in viewers after it fired Matt Lauer last November.
Maybe ‘Today’ should fire everyone and hire a slate of fresh, new, and diverse talent.
