The feud between Donald Trump and Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly has become one of the biggest political stories of 2015, and political junkies across the country have been eagerly awaiting the January 28th rematch to see which — if any — of the media moguls would land the final, devastating blow.
The GOP frontrunner’s animosity toward Megyn Kelly dates back to the first debate of the primary season. In the opening rounds of questioning, Megyn Kelly asked how Donald Trump would respond to Hillary Clinton’s inevitable accusation that he is part of the Republican “war on women.”
She elaborated with comments Trump had made previously, saying, “You’ve called women you don’t like ‘fat pigs,’ ‘dogs,’ ‘slobs’ and ‘disgusting animals'” and suggested that he had made lewd comments to a woman, claiming he’d said to a woman on The Apprentice she would be a “pretty picture on her knees.” The question brought the crowd into an uproar, as the question came off particularly tough, even for Megyn Kelly. Some were delighted by the question, but others were outraged.
As for Trump, he laughed it off initially, but hours later launched a late-night twitter rampage against Kelly that has been ongoing ever since. He called her over-rated, retweeted a user who called her a “bimbo,” then allegedly suggested that Kelly was on her period during the debate, telling CNN that she had “blood coming out of her… whatever.”
In short, they didn’t exactly hit it off.
Now, after a week of intense back and forth between Fox News and Donald Trump regarding Megyn Kelly’s involvement as a moderator, Donald has put a kibosh on the upcoming altercation altogether.
Donald Trump will not participate, but it’s not only about Kelly. Trump is accusing Fox news of ‘playing games’ with a set of press releases.

Who gives a s**t
At least with Trump in office our women won’t be abused and our children sexually assaulted. If being politically correct allows this I want to back someone who’s not. Go Trump
Go Trump!
DONALD TRUMP FOR 2O16
No Fox no kelly no debate
What the heck… if we don’t love and follow Fox then we’re not allowed to form our own opinion ?
The owner of Fox sucks. . he’s an advocate for open borders, I’m not !!

Seems to me that’s not the case here- Trump doesn’t seem to be hurting so bad
Fox News, this is our election, WE THE PEOPLE, let us vote for who we want and stop trying to manipulate the system. Fox is full of intellectual people who believe their intellect is superior and they can use it, and abuse it, to get what they want. They were out to destroy Trump, I’ve watched it for months. Never saw a tv station do it as consistently or deliberately. They have abused their power and they all know it, but feel entitled to because of they are smart-tongued and know better than us citizens, what’s best for America, just they way our politicians treat us. Megan, you are at the forefront of this character assasination of Trump. I have never watched your show since the first debate, and now, I am not watching Fox New anymore either. And it’s not that I am so pro-Trump, but rather that I am so against powerful agencies like the media abusing their power and manipulating their viewers. I hope that Trump wins the nomination and I hope that he wins the presidency, and my reason for that is because I want the media, and our government to know that this is a country of the people and by the people. For months, I’ve watched Fox newspeople work their plan of destruction with their words and body language. The photos of Trump on facebook are the most unbecoming. I have never ever seen an all out attact like this done to anyone, not even a criminal. That’s right, you would give a criminal more respect. I hope there is justice in this world and Fox News get back what it has dished out. Please folks, copy, paste and repost this. Let’s take our election back!
Good for him, love this guy!!
I’ve seen tons of people who will now NOT be voting Trump.
