Megyn Kelly, who left Fox News last year to work at NBC, has sparked controversy repeatedly, most recently with her remarks about whites wearing blackface.
Although Megyn Kelly is not associated with any mainstream news outlet at present, she is not leaving broadcasting, reports Variety.
The former NBC News and Fox News anchor is launching an independent media company, “Devil May Care Media,” a production company that will back podcasts and other shows built around the latest news, current events, legal and cultural issues.
Her first podcast, “The Megyn Kelly Show,” is expected to debut the week of Sept. 28.
Kelly said:
“With Devil May Care Media, I answer only to my audience and my conscience. Those who like what I have to say will find the experience deeply rewarding. Those who don’t can look elsewhere.
“The point is to give the audience authentic content that goes places where traditional media can’t or — more often — won’t. It’s a great challenge that will reconnect me with my audience and I’m excited to get started.”
Red Seat Ventures, a media production company, will help produce and manage her show.
