Megyn Kelly responds to criticism from Jane Fonda saying that she has no regrets about asking about Fonda's plastic surgery. Then she goes on to address Fonda's own past, “Hanoi Jane,” and says she's in no position to talk about what's offensive. https://t.co/woNQ9WcLNf

Said Kelly:
“I have no regrets about the question. Nor am I in the market for a lesson from Jane Fonda on what is and is not appropriate. After all, this is a woman whose name is synonymous with outrage…Look at her treatment of our military during the Vietnam war, many of our veterans still call her ‘Hanoi Jane' thanks to her radio broadcasts which attempted to shame American troops. She posed on an anti-aircraft gun used to shoot down our American pilots. She called our POWs hypocrites and liars and referred to their torture as ‘understandable.' Even she had to apologize years later for that gun picture. But not for the rest of it. By the way she still says she is not proud of America. So, the moral indignation is a little much. She put her plastic surgery out there. She said she wanted to discuss the plight of older women in America. And honestly she has no business lecturing anyone on what qualifies as offensive.”
2. Just got this message from a former Fox News colleague of Megyn's: "Just shows that FNC never made her do anything…this is who she is. Also, if Jane Fonda is so horrible and offensive and an America hater why did Megyn have her on?”
