Megyn Kelly was asked to leave NBC last month after making a racist comment while discussing Halloween costumes on her hour of the Today show. On the episode, she asked why it was racist for white people to put on blackface when dressing up. SHe said, “Back when I was a kid that was okay, as long as you were dressing up as a character." However, according to Uproxx, NBC News had been planning to make Kelly the face of election night coverage. On Monday, NBC released a video ad spot that showed Lester Holt, Savannah Guthrie and Chuck Todd for its “The Vote: America’s Future” special live broadcast.
