I am loving some of the comments here: http://www.mediaite.com/tv/megyn-kelly-previews-duggar-interview-not-going-to-be-a-cross-examination/ Wow, that clip.. Josh referred to as oldest 'child' not son. What does Clinton have to do with this? This could be a gongshow. Kinda can't wait to see the comments on here. This issue is the release of the document? That is an issue, but it isn't the main issue. They also seemed surprised that the MEDIA is FEASTING on a story. Haha, Fox themselves are feasting on this with the interview.

ChicksDigScars June 2, 2015 Share June 2, 2015 (edited) In her outrage over the release of the police report (saying that Josh was a minor and the police chief was wrong to release it...JB and MEE-chelle will eat that up with a spoon), she DID manage to express outrage at how transparent the redacting of the victim's names were, and that it didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out their identity. THAT I agree with. But protecting the Special Snowflake and his enabling parents? No way. I have SOME hope. Not much, but some. But making this a subject of the interview is a brilliant deflection move by the poor persecuted Duggars. Totally brilliant. And probably foolproof. Heck, their Very Special announcement might be that they're suing the City over release of the report.It's awesome, really.My admiration for them is now quite similar to my opinion of cockroaches. I hate the dirty little buggers, but I totally respect their ability to survive. At this point, go ahead and sue. As long as whatever monetary award goes to the victims and Josh's children, and not to line JB pockets (yeah, I know....dream on), if someone's rights were violated, pursue it. However, the public can't unsee what has been shown. We're not going to be able to look at Josh and not see a disgusting, doughy faced pervert who assaulted his own sisters. We're not going to be able to watch Jim Bob and Michelle and not think that they're the worst parents EVER. TLC is not going to be able to just pick up where they left off and have the show go on. The Official Duggar Drink game Fill a 16 ounce cup with your frosty beverage and the shot glass with hard liquor, and let the games begin. The rules are simple. Every time the Duggars use one of the following words, you have to drink:Jesus – God – Christ – pray – forgive – sin – soul – heart – lust – mistake – love – heal If they use any of the following phrases, you have to do a shot: Only a child – just 14 years old – asked for forgiveness – sought God’s love – a long time ago – private family matter If Megyn Kelley says “heartbreaking,” the first person to finish their drink gets to make a new rule. The first person to pass out gets “I love the Duggars” written on their forehead with a Sharpie. The last person to vomit, considering the interview is undoubtedly intended to show support for a confessed child molester, wins. What the hell? Are you TRYING to kill us all? :-) Edited June 2, 2015 by ChicksDigScars 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/27175-megyn-kelly-and-fox-news-speculation-where-the-talking-hits-the-road/page/4/#findComment-1205149
GEML June 2, 2015 Share June 2, 2015 It's a misdemeanor charge, and you can't sue someone for the truth. So that isn't likely to happen from the Duggars.

His case would have been heard in Family/Juvenile Court and he could have spent time in a County Juvenile Det.Center until the charges were adjudicated. However, since the authorities were not notified when it first happened and a police report was never filed the second time, Josh is off the hook.

Opinion No. 90-305. If the request was made, the agency had no choice but to hand it over. It's not a matter of "should". The law is clear on this. As for whether or not it should have been redacted better: Q. What type of information contained in a personnelfile is exempt from disclosure under the “clearly unwarrantedinvasion of personal privacy” exemption?A. Examples of exempted information include: home andpersonal cell phone numbers, date of birth, religious affiliation,information about family life, welfare payments,legitimacy of children, marital status, payroll deductions,social security numbers, credit union statements and otherfinancial records, insurance coverage, and medical records.Ark.

They could easily just sit on their hands and shut up and let everyone lose their collective minds over Caitlyn Jenner, take the summer off, and very quietly continue on with the show and the vast majority of people would be none the wiser to the fact that they were indeed on the television again. If TLC didn't advertise the show, how many people would actually know it was on? Most likely the core demographic who is going to believe them anyway. But, they are insisting on trying to control this narrative. Hence, the softball interview with a friendly newsertainment channel that is going to allow them to use this as yet another opportunity for them to display what fantastic Christians they are because they forgave their prodigal son, and now the Liberal Media is persecuting them for not casting him out.

I don't blame Fox News entirely, if the shoe was on the other foot MSNBC would be doing the exact same thing. Now that the curtain has been pulled back on the family,I hope that this will provide a clearer path should any of these children choose to pursue a life outside of the compound. I don't see any scenario where JB & M will come out with a favorable result. All of the tears and forgiveness and prayer cannot trump the fact that 5 children were abused and none of the adults involved did anything to protect them. If this is meant to be a trial balloon for TLC to make a decision on future Duggar relationships, it will hopefully cement cutting the cord with them. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/27175-megyn-kelly-and-fox-news-speculation-where-the-talking-hits-the-road/page/4/#findComment-1205696

That sort of thinking is a personal pet peeve of mine (right up there with misspelled and poorly punctuated internet memes and inspirational Facebook quotes) as it turns it into some sort of a competition instead of acknowledging that they're both wrong and the severity of wrongness doesn't diminish the fact that they're both wrong (and gross and icky and make me want to go take a shower).

Do they really expect to bring in people who aren't familiar with the Duggars to tune in to hear this story -- and become Duggar fans? Are they hoping that Duggar fans who aren't regular Fox News viewers will be so happy to have their heroes given a platform that they'll become regular Fox news viewers? Or what? Because it seems to me that it will just be the usual thing for anybody who is aware of the Duggars.

The worst part is if it ends up the way it sounds then we know the Duggar supporters will be all over the I told you so's and the It's just jealous anti-christians rhetoric, it'll give them fuel for their defenses. I'm still going to watch - I feel like if only the people who agree with them watch then there's nobody able to say what a pile of bull the interview was. One part of the article: Kelly also teases her interview with the Duggars, which will air Wednesday.“This isn’t going to be a cross-examination of a family It’s going to be an interview. I want to hear their story,” she said. “And I think America wants to hear their story now.” The only real hope I have left now is that her approach to this interview will backfire - BIG TIME. On her, on Fox and most especially on the Duggars. And that the disapproval, shock, criticism, shame and condemnation of millions will rain down on them all - in Biblical amounts. 19 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/27175-megyn-kelly-and-fox-news-speculation-where-the-talking-hits-the-road/page/4/#findComment-1206174
OSM Mom June 2, 2015 Share June 2, 2015 America wants to hear their story. . Oh bitch please. All we want to hear is that the victims are getting real help and a way out of the circus they're living in. Oh and how the fuck these idiot "parents" could let this happen and not do a fucking think about it.. 19 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/27175-megyn-kelly-and-fox-news-speculation-where-the-talking-hits-the-road/page/4/#findComment-1206179

Sew Sumi June 2, 2015 Share June 2, 2015 We sure as hell won't hear about what the parents did for the victims. That presupposes that there WERE victims. They seem to be backpedaling all the way to: Josh was framed by the ebil librul police, who in turn released a report to the ebil librul media!!!11111 I suspect we're going to be fed a shit ton of bullshit. But then again, when have Mere and Pere Duggar been truthful with the public, pretty much ever? Their entire lifestyle is based on coverups and lies. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/27175-megyn-kelly-and-fox-news-speculation-where-the-talking-hits-the-road/page/4/#findComment-1206228
Fallacy June 2, 2015 Share June 2, 2015 Just watched the clip of Megyn Kelly and all I can say is she is so twisted. Even if what she said about Clinton were true, two wrongs don't make a right. But what did I expect from a "journalist" who relies on logical fallacies, half truths, and propaganda. She really pisses me off. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/27175-megyn-kelly-and-fox-news-speculation-where-the-talking-hits-the-road/page/4/#findComment-1206265
MyPeopleAreNordic June 2, 2015 Share June 2, 2015 (edited) As a mom of three younger children, I expected more from her...but this is Fox News and they are her bosses. I do think this interview could wreck her career especially with the commentary on her page, her show's page, and the Network's page from people who appear to actually be viewers not just the standards rubberneckers who only showed up for the drama.I agree. If she ever wants to be taken seriously outside of the Fox News bubble, she's in trouble if this interview goes the way it sounds it will. She could use this interview to call the Duggars out and be admired by many on both sides of the political spectrum. A real, hard-hitting interview could make her a big network anchor one day, etc. I have a couple of guy friends who watch her show purely because they think she's "hot." Here's a chance to be more than that hot Fox News chick. My guess is that even if Kelly wants to do such an interview, Fox execs won't let her. I almost wonder if she drew the short straw and ended up having to interview them. Perhaps the Duggars agreed to the interview only with Fox News. The Fox execs were left wondering which well-known anchor from the network would be best to interview them. Shepard Smith? No, he's gay. Geraldo? Ew, no one wants him talking about any kind of underage sex scandal. Bill O'Reilly? No, he's had some scandals that were sexual in nature of his own. Hannity? He probably would be smart enough to refuse & have the clout to do so. Same with Greta. So who got stuck with it? Megyn Kelly- she's the newest to the prime time weekday shows (having one of her own anyway) and you know, she's a woman. Let's the throw the new girl under the bus. (I know she's been on Fox News for a while, but she hasn't even had her own show for two years yet.)

truthtalk2014 June 2, 2015 Share June 2, 2015 My big deal about this interview and scandal is that they openly speak out on every topic known to man- robo calls, etc. (gays, abortion, transgender and the list goes on). And yet now, they STFU. That tells me something. Silence... Why is Joshie boy and staring aimlessly adoringly Anna not included in the interview? I don't think Anna should have any part of it, but she would never be allowed to be absent. Dude- stop having your parents protect you!!! Josh needs to man up! 18 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/27175-megyn-kelly-and-fox-news-speculation-where-the-talking-hits-the-road/page/4/#findComment-1206312

If Josh is old enough to make a living off of propagating hate towards LGBT people, he's old enough to defend himself/speak for himself now.

Popular Post Missy Vixen June 2, 2015 Popular Post Share June 2, 2015 Just watched the clip of Megyn Kelly and all I can say is she is so twisted. Even if what she said about Clinton were true, two wrongs don't make a right. But what did I expect from a "journalist" who relies on logical fallacies, half truths, and propaganda. She really pisses me off. Let me explain this to Megyn Kelly in teeny little words so she can sound them out. The difference between Josh Duggar and President Clinton: Josh Duggar molested underage (and evidently sleeping) girls who were too young to give consent. Four of those survivors were his sisters. The felony committed was evidently shoved in a drawer and forgotten until the statute of limitations ran out. He is still lying about what happened, and so are his parents. We have no idea if he has or has not molested anyone since. President Clinton had a consensual affair with a legal adult. Nobody forced her. Nobody forced him. I am not pleased by his behavior. Nothing he did was illegal, however. Immoral, yes. Sleazy, yes. Inadvisable, absolutely. Illegal? Uh, no. 25 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/27175-megyn-kelly-and-fox-news-speculation-where-the-talking-hits-the-road/page/4/#findComment-1206336

MyPeopleAreNordic June 2, 2015 Share June 2, 2015 (edited) The deflection from Josh's actions/parents' actions onto the fact that the report was released & compromised the victims' privacy is really irking me. I get that the survivors had a right to privacy and now everyone knows what happened to them. I'm sure that they may be suffering and reliving this once again. Even if the release of the report was illegal, though, the fact remains that no report would have been all over gossip and news sites had Josh not sexually assaulted the girls or the family not be on TV. Josh is still the person who set this into motion (and his parents then agreed to be on TV knowing this was in their closet). But I feel this BIG focus/deflection on the fact that the survivors were identified is sending the message again that the survivors are in the wrong - as if they should feel ashamed this happened to them. It's as if Fox News and the family are saying (without explicitly saying) that it's worse to be outed as a survivor of sexual assault than to be the person who did the sexual assault or parents who did nothing to address the sexual assaults. I hope what I'm trying to say makes sense. I'm having a hard time putting it into words.

Loves2Dance June 3, 2015 Share June 3, 2015 Since one church has already pulled out from a future visit from the Duggars, I'm wondering if this interview is going to have churches doing the same thing in the future---like watching the public's opinion and then reacting by cancelling. The Lexington church probably made a smart move by doing it so quickly. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/27175-megyn-kelly-and-fox-news-speculation-where-the-talking-hits-the-road/page/4/#findComment-1206419
