NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles) – At The Hollywood Reporter’s event honoring the most influential media persons for 2015 held in New York City, CNN anchor Don Lemon admitted being a devoted viewer of FOX News’ Megyn Kelly saying, “I think that Megyn Kelly is very powerful. I think that she’s very honest. I think that she’s very fair. I think she’s a star, and I watch her every single night.”

Today, Kelly responded to Lemon’s comments saying that she was flattered but can stand on her own without any endorsements from the CNN Anchor.

Kelly also reacted to other comments made by Lemon regarding his own perception of his work as a news anchor. Kelly’s responses are in parentheses:

“I’m there for the viewer (Yeah, sure!) I’m not there for the critics, so let the critics be the critics (But of course they will!)  I have your attention (You wish!)  I’m glad you’re watching (No I’m not!) and I’m glad that I’m moving you in some way — that I’m stirring some sort of passion and debate (Dream on !) I love it (Love yourself!)

Poor Lemon. He may just have jeopardized his chances to move over from CNN to FOX News with his comments, and Kelly’s responses.
