Media personality Megyn Kelly praised the firing of Tiffany Cross from MSNBC.
During her SiriusXM The Megyn Kelly Show Friday, Kelly called Cross the “most racist person in all of television.”
“Joy, oh, joy. Tiffany Cross is gone!” Kelly said.
Kelly said Cross inappropriately assigned race to news headlines many times.

“She was upset when Tua [Tagovailoa] got hurt,” Kelly explained, referencing the Miami Dolphins quarterback’s concussion injuries. ‘She took it racial. She was like, ‘All these white owners making these black players…’ Tua’s not black. The coach was not white.”
“[Cross] blasted Republican members of Congress as white supremacists a day after the Wisconsin jury acquitted [Kyle] Rittenhouse,” Kelly continued. “Somehow, that made the Republican members of Congress white supremacists.”
Kelly added that Cross called Rittenhouse a white supremacist and noted that the former MSNBC host discussed “white replacement” as a “threat to our survival.”
She also described times that Cross slammed “white women” as being connected to “domestic terrorism.”
Guest and fellow media personality Dana Loesch laughingly responded that she had “to really think hard and remember who she was.”
Both Loesch and Kelly pointed to her lack of relevance.
“Her whole show, if memory serves, the content is essentially a YouTube section,” Loesch added. “Just one angry YouTube comment section diatribe. That’s her whole entire show. I can see why, Megyn, it didn’t offer much value to the network.”
“It’s kind of hard to sell ads on some ‘Karen’ screaming about all of these grievances that she sees everywhere that don’t actually exist, and she doesn’t even have her facts straight on half, or any of it all the time,” Loesch continued. “I think they’re even tired of it on the Left.”
Loesch also suggested the only people who likely tuned into Cross’s show were Democratic members of the House of Representatives known as “the Squad,” which include Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, Jamaal Bowman of New York, and Cori Bush of Missouri.

Cross hosted the Cross Connection for the last two years. The network decided not to renew her contract on Friday, reportedly citing that Cross’s comments and coverage did not adhere to MSNBC’s standards.
