The Putin interview could put Kelly on the map on an international scale and create plenty of buzz for NBC.
Her departure from Fox News for NBC has been well-publicized, and it’s no secret that Kelly passed on a mighty paycheck from Fox News to move to broadcast television.
That said, there is a pretty solid case to be made for Megyn Kelly landing the interview.
She’ll host two shows on the network: a daytime show airing at either 9 a.m. or 10 a.m. this fall and a Sunday night show that may start as early as this summer.
