Pathological Media Amnesia – THE INDEPENDENTS

Some flag manipulations are more equal than others.

Some flag manipulations are more equal than others.

Megyn Kelly has been sliding into odd realms in recent months, and as a result, she is finding herself in conflict with her former self. For instance, she was recently critical of Bari Weiss for running CBS News, yet months earlier, she praised Weiss when she had been hired. The latest, however, cannot even be attributed to her changeover.

Megyn was scorching Fox News because an onscreen graphic during the war coverage had at the bottom an artistic blending of the U.S. and Israeli flags. The complaint is odd enough, but as Kelly was raging against this perceived offense with flag propriety, she forgot that, in promoting her show, she had the near-identical “offense” with the U.S. and Iranian flags. This was her display just two weeks ago.

Uh, Megyn???This was you, just weeks ago...This is worse than your endorsement --> criticism of Bari Weiss. https://t.co/jOjQ6XSwPj pic.twitter.com/XWwgl9xcpe— Brad Slager: CNN Lifetime Subscriber (@MartiniShark) March 19, 2026
