"No, the worst person on television was fired from NBC and the 'Today' show a few years ago, and that's Megyn Kelly!" Lemon fired back. "That's the worst person who's not on television anymore. It's you! So, hoorah for that. NBC did something good with that."

Lemon then dived into Kelly's problematic past, including the notorious moment from 2018 when Kelly defended Blackface costumes for Halloween. He also attempted to expose Kelly's history of attacking other women on television, including CNN host Kaitlan Collins. Lemon threw to a clip of Kelly calling Collins "extremely boring with no personality" and a "cold-hearted bitch."

"Was that really necessary?" Lemon asked. "And how is that supportive of women? Now, she could've given some advice and said, 'Hey, you need to somehow establish a bond or connection with your audience.' She doesn't have to call the woman a B."

Honestly, Lemon gave Kelly relatively light work.

He didn't need to stop at the time she vehemently defended blackface. He could have gone on to demonstrate how Kelly is a far better candidate for "absolute worse person on television" than Reid by noting the time Kelly stated emphatically that Jesus and Santa Claus should only be depicted as white. There was also the time she cosigned a social media post referring to Michelle Obama as "Obama's Baby Mama." More recently, Kelly cosigned misogynoir laced white nonsense about how Kamala Harris "slept her way to the top," only to be reminded by social media users that the same allegation has been leveled against her. (Apparently, Kelly had forgotten about the time she very publicly complained about how "demeaning" it was that she was made to do the "twirl" while "performing" for late Fox News CEO Roger Ailes when she was a young, up and coming journalist working her way up the ladder in her field.)

Also, why shouldn't Reid have joined the rest of us in "mocking white women's tears?"

For example, it was funny as hell when Kelly was crying Karen tears over Sen. Laphonza Butler shouting out HBCUs during last year's Democratic National Convention. Butler had noted that she and then-presidential candidate Harris "share a lot in common," specifically, the fact that they "both graduated from historically Black colleges."

"Laphonza Butler spkg - (she filled Feinstein's seat) - celebrating that she and Harris both graduated from historically black colleges. Imagine the white person up there: I'm proud to tell you I went to a mostly white university!" Kelly tweeted in response, pretending she's not aware of the centuries of systemic racism and Black exclusion that made HBCUs necessary in the first place.
