Um: "Insider" Claims CNN's Jeff Zucker Is Trying to Move The Himalayas to Land Megyn Kelly

Drudge's own reporting here.

CNN President Jeff Zucker is actively perusing FOX star Megyn Kelly to anchor 8 or 9 PM on his network, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. And Kelly might just say, YES!

"He is moving the Himalayan mountains to get her," a top insider explains. "But they are tripped up on money. He simply can't pay her the $20 million a year FOX has on the table."

1, they can have her. Dead to me. Tired of her wasting Tucker Carlson's timeslot.

2, I note this "insider" isn't identified as being in the CNN camp. That is, the reportage here by Drudge seems deliberately obscure as to who, precisely, is leaking this.

I personally suspect it's Megyn Kelly, or her "camp," if she has a camp. Because,

3, MeAgain Kelly is very vain and seems stung that she's not been in more demand than she actually has been. It seems a very MeAgain move to brag on the claim that everyone desperately wants her.

Anyway, I hope she goes. I suspect she won't.
