Megyn Kelly Spars With Candace Owens Over Whether College Students Should Be Blacklisted

Journalist Megyn Kelly and conservative commentator 📺Candace Owens got into over whether college students should be blacklisted for their association with groups that took a pro-Palestinian stance amid 🇮🇱Israel’s war with Hamas.

The exchange kicked off with former Fox News host and journalist Kelly criticizing Republican presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy for arguing on X, formerly known as Twitter, it is “not productive for companies to blacklist kids for being members of student groups that make dumb political statements on campus.”

“You’ve got to be kidding me. They sided with terrorists who murdered children and old women. You’re not clear on this as someone who wants to be president?” Kelly asked.

When Ramaswamy argued that “persuasion is better than force,” the journalist shot back, “If they are not ‘persuaded’ that murdering babies is wrong, there is no ‘persuading’ them. We don’t hire those who do the killing & we don’t hire those who applaud the killers while the savagery is underway. If you are open to hiring one of these lunatics, tho, good to know!”

The Daily Wire’s Candance Owens then jumped in the mix and accused Kelly of being “incredibly disingenuous” as she argued college students are “stupid” and noted she used to be “radically pro-choice,” but has since changed her view.

“Being liberal is not the same as taking to the streets to cheer murdered babies and blame said murders on the victims. But you go ahead and hire as many of them as you want Candace. I’m sure will love that,” Kelly responded.
