Kelly has defended her decision to feature the 'Infowars' host on her NBC newsmagazine amid criticism from the families of Sandy Hook victims. J.P. Morgan Chase has pulled its advertisements from NBC News in light of Megyn Kelly's upcoming interview with Infowars host Alex Jones, The Wall Street Journal reported Monday.
The network released a brief portion of the interview, which is scheduled to air on Sunday.
Since many people don't know Jones and his views, Kelly noted the importance of explaining them.
A writer for the conservative website Red State, Andrea Kutz, wondered, "What is Megyn Kelly thinking?".
"I'm a news and politics-engaged individual," said Kutz, "but I don't care to watch interviews with liars of either Putin's or Jones' ilk.
In the interview clip released by NBC, Kelly said to Jones, "When you say people faked their children's deaths, people get very angry."
After the interview had been taped, Jones denounced it on Infowars as "fake news, in my view." »
