Megyn Kelly Meets Privately With Trump [VIDEO]

Politico reports:

Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly and Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump met at Trump Tower on Wednesday, Kelly confirmed on her show Wednesday night.

Reports of the meeting first emerged after NBC News’ Ayman Mohyeldin spotted Kelly entering Trump Tower in the morning, with NBC’s Beth Fouhy being the first person to tweet the sighting.

Kelly said the meeting was held at her request and was an effort to clear the air between herself and Trump. Trump has publicly attacked Kelly on a number of occasions, ever since she grilled him on his past comments about women at the first Republican primary debate last year.

“We met for about an hour, just the two of us, and had a chance to clear the air,” Kelly said. “Mr. Trump and I discussed the possibility of an interview. And I hope we will have news to announce on that soon.”

Kelly has largely tried to stay above the fray, though she acknowledged at Tina Brown’s Women in the World conference last week that Trump’s attacks on her have been “unprecedented for a presidential candidate.”
