Rev. Al Sharpton instructed Fox News host Megyn Kelly to “calm down” during a heated exchange Wednesday night about Black Lives Matter.
Early on in “The Kelly File” interview, the host asked Sharpton, “Do you feel bad” about his remarks that Ferguson, Missouri police officer Darren Wilson did not kill Michael Brown in self-defense.
“No,” Sharpton responded. “Don’t distort what the DOJ said.”
The question kicked off a back-and-forth about the Justice Department’s findings that lasted for several minutes, with Kelly pressing Sharpton on whether he feels responsible for disseminating opinions after “your opinion is proved to be wrong.”
“You don’t talk to all the witnesses! The DOJ does,” Kelly said. “It can be a crime to lie to an FBI agent. It’s not a crime to lie to Reverend Al.”
“Megyn, calm down,” Sharpton replied.
“Now watch it with ‘calm down,’” Kelly cautioned. “Ask Bill O’Reilly about that. I had to lecture him on that one himself.”

Nope! I’ll pass. I’m good.
“Uppity beyotch gonna slap you upside your head!” a street tough Kelley snapped at Sharpton, The shocked Sharpton said “Excuse me madam but please calm yourself before you blow a bowel”
I like my dialog much better.
They’re both jerks. Why have this conversation? A Black activist and a White Journo that works for a pro-White outlet? Why not get Nudgent and the head of PETA together? Kelly is incapable of understanding what went down in Ferguson.
Why do this? I’ve never liked Sharpton and his phony baloney religious shtick but now I have another reason to dislike him. He’s dumb as shit and his efforts here are as usual counterproductive.
Let’'s see: Sharpton complaining about racism is not OK, while Kelly complaining about sexism is OK.
Fox News is not news.

“his efforts here are as usual counterproductive.”
That is so true and why its baffling why he has such staying power.
