Megyn Kelly’s shift from fearless journalist to Tucker Carlson’s unofficial damage-control operation has become impossible to ignore. In this episode, Daniel Mael breaks down how her evasions around the Carlson controversy—especially on questions of anti-Semitism and political accountability—signal a deeper collapse of integrity inside parts of conservative media. The conversation explores Tucker’s radicalization, JD Vance’s silence, and the broader danger when prominent figures use their platforms to escalate rhetoric instead of elevating discourse. It’s a sharp look at how guilt-by-association gets selectively applied, how media voices have traded curiosity for tribal loyalty, and why Megyn Kelly’s transformation marks a troubling moment for anyone who still believes journalism should tell the truth even when it’s inconvenient.
