Megyn Kelly is getting her own SiriusXM channel. The talk host and former Fox News anchor will launch The Megyn Kelly Channel on November 4, expanding her partnership with the satellite radio giant under her Devil May Care Media banner. The new channel will air on SiriusXM channel 111, previously home to Triumph, which featured Kelly alongside Glenn Beck, Nancy Grace, and Dr. Laura Schlessinger. Some of those programs will shift to channel 123 to make room for Kelly’s growing slate. Kelly’s flagship program, The Megyn Kelly Show, will continue to premiere on SiriusXM before dropping as a podcast, and she’s adding a new daily after-show exclusive to the channel. SiriusXM said additional series, specials, and collaborations will roll out in the coming weeks. In a statement, Kelly took a shot at traditional cable news. “Linear television news is dead. People can’t stand those stilted, censored conversations anymore, which is exactly why this medium is thriving,” she said. “I’m thrilled to deliver our bold brand of no-B.S. news live on SiriusXM.” The deal marks another major step in Kelly’s career, having left Fox in 2017 to host a new morning show called Megyn Kelly Today on NBC. However it was cancelled a year later amid poor ratings and Kelly’s remarks about blackface. She launched her show on Sirius in 2021.
