MANHATTAN, NEW YORK CITY: Megyn Kelly, the ex-Fox News anchor, mocked Stormy Daniels' recent testimony for saying she 'blacked out' in the Donald Trump hush money criminal trial.

During the May 9 episode of 'The Megyn Kelly Show', Kelly brought on comedian Adam Corolla to delve into Daniels' testimony and the media's intense focus on the trial.



 

According to Reuters, At the criminal trial on May 7, porn star Stormy Daniels depicted her 2006 encounter saying despite consuming no drugs or alcohol, she "blacked out" after Trump prevented her from leaving the room by blocking the door. She recounted waking up on the bed with her clothes off.

Sometime into the conversation, Kelly told Corolla "The thing about Stormy — what shocked me the most is that she completely revised her account of the interlude."

"It went from this casual description back when she first came out with this publicly, of 'he was interesting and he was nice' — to 'I blacked out' — to 'the blood left my fingers and toes,'" Kelly added. 

Mocking Daniels, Kelly continued,  "'The room was spinning and he was stopping me from getting out because he was sitting on the bed between me exiting the bathroom and the door but in a non-threatening manner."'

"'Oh, and by the way, I didn't say no. But you know, I didn't know how I got here. What choices had I made?' It's a b------- #MeToo revisionism and everyone's buying it!" Kelly further added. 

Megyn Kelly also criticized mainstream media outlets, characterizing the ongoing Trump trial as "their Super Bowl" and "the World Series all wrapped into one."

She remarked, "They wanted to hear her talk about Trump and how 'brief' the sexual interlude was because they want to see him humiliated."

Corolla joined in by questioning the purpose of reporters earning journalism degrees. "This is a Mexican soap opera. You're not a journalist, you idiot. What are you doing? Where's your dignity? I feel this way about almost everybody in media these days."

Reportedly, the former president has pleaded not guilty to 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to 'hush money' payments he orchestrated for his lawyer, Michael Cohen, to give to the adult film star, aiming to keep their alleged affair confidential before the 2016 election.

One viewer said, "Stormy had the opportunity to testify today and blew it."

Another viewer said, "I think Stormy Daniels is pretty but also dishonest. Lying down and Lying are basic skills for her profession."
