Though I hate to see her profiting so handsomely from her racist nonsense.

Give her a desk job for the duration.
If she doesn't like it and wants to leave she can terminate the contract and sign with someone else.

(129,376 posts)Their website ended up referencing the CNN reporting of it but I don't remember whether they played an audio feed from CNN with the report or from CBS News.

(10,054 posts)I keep thinking of our out of work federal workers skipping meals, sleeping in their cars, selling their belongings and that awful Kelly just gets to walk away from a cushy job with such an obscene amount of money.

(33,606 posts)she would have the viewership to deserve that kind of money in the first place?
Did they not see what she was on Faux?
She left because of sexual harassment, not because she didn't believe the Faux propaganda.

(29,721 posts)don't have to look at her or hear her bs ever again. Personally, I wouldn't ever work again if I got $69M pretax. I could find a lot of things to occupy my life.

(19,846 posts)I shudder to think what terms were in her contract if NBC had to negotiate for months just to reduce it to paying her in full.
Tamron Hall must be laughing her ass off.
