'So gross': Megyn Kelly slams media for ignoring 'No Kings' protests mocking Charlie Kirk's death

WASHINGTON, DC: Megyn Kelly ripped into the media on Monday’s episode of 'The Megyn Kelly Show,' accusing major news outlets of turning a blind eye to hateful behavior at the recent “No Kings” protests.

She blasted the press for ignoring disturbing signs, including ones that appeared to mock the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

Her comments came as the second wave of nationwide 'No Kings' protests swept across the country, drawing massive crowds in cities like Washington DC, New York, Chicago, and Houston.

Megyn Kelly goes off on 'No Kings' protests for mocking Charlie Kirk's death

Megyn Kelly condemned the media's silence, calling it “utter bulls**t" on Monday, October 20.

“Several protesters, this is so gross, mocking the assassination of Charlie Kirk,” Kelly said. “His wife is still in nonstop tears. He has two babies, only one of whom can even speak yet, they’re so young, and all she does is ask where daddy is." 

She further emphasized, "And Erika can’t quite explain it to her in a way that she understands. How do you make a three-year-old understand a political assassination or even death?”

Kelly went on to highlight a protest sign, “This woman made a homemade sign that reads, ‘Which one heals faster: Trump’s ear or Erica Kirk’s heart?’ They can’t stand the fact that Erica Kirk is a strong woman who refuses to be cowed into hiding, and they don’t give a damn about any suffering she’s going through." 

Kelly concluded with an emotional message saying, "They could not care less. They want her to suffer. That’s really what we’re seeing, they want Charlie’s baby boy to grow up without a dad. They don’t give a s**t about him or his baby girl either, they do not care. They want more Charlie Kirks.”

Jesse Watters slams 'No King' protesters

Megyn Kelly wasn’t the only one taking aim at the 'No Kings' protests; Fox News host Jesse Watters also criticized the nationwide demonstrations against Donald Trump.

On the October 20 episode of 'The Five', Watters called out the protestors and revealed that his own mother, Anne Purvis, had joined them.

"I know my mom was there. Can you believe my mom was there? Sometimes I think I was adopted," Watters joked. He described Purvis as a staunch Democrat and child psychologist, and questioned how informed some attendees were.

He quipped, “I mean, some of them do, like my mom knew, but if you stick a mic in front of their face, they have no clue. They’re just kind of walking around.”

He continued, “They do these things, the Women’s March, BLM, the Musk stuff. The issues change but the one thing that stays the same is Trump… They’ve lost all power in Washington, and they’ve lost their minds.”

According to organizers, an estimated seven million people participated in the No Kings protests nationwide. Demonstrators held signs with slogans like “For the Epsteinth time… No Kings,” “He’s more burger than king,” and “Impeach Trump again.”

A study from American University found that nearly 90% of protestors identified with the political left, with the average participant being an educated White woman in her 40s.

In Washington, DC, protestors marched down Pennsylvania Avenue NW, focusing attention on Trump amid multiple controversies, including the Epstein files.
