Megyn Kelly asked Hollywood how its “incessant, insufferable woke” and “depressing lecturing” was going after the Oscars’ ratings hit an all-time new low in a post Monday.
“How’s all that incessant, insufferable woke, depressing lecturing via film, interviews, social media [and] at the actual, awful awards show going, Hollywood?” Kelly tweeted Monday to her millions of followers.
“Oscars Ratings Plummet by 58 Percent in overall, down 64% in younger audience,” the former Fox News host added. (RELATED: Megyn Kelly: Meghan Markle ‘Covered Herself In Blood Diamonds’ While Claiming To Not Be Into The ‘Grandeur’ Of Being A Royal)
