Megyn on her last day, although not realizing it yet:
Paraphrase: “It [blackface] is okay as long as your costume matches.”

Two people familiar with the matter confirmed that to CNN Business and said Kelly's show will be ending. Negotiations about the end date and other details are still underway. But Kelly will not be hosting Thursday's program, and she is unlikely to return later, one of the people said. So "Megyn Kelly Today" may end very soon.
It’s a matter of WHEN, not IF. She has apologized, but
...NBC staffers routinely call Kelly's show a "disaster" and other disparaging terms.
I don’t think she’s coming back. Maybe she can hang out with Roseanne Barr.
Buh-bye.
Update — found this quote in Variety:
Megyn Kelly and NBC News have engaged in conversations about her taking a new role* at the news division, according to a person who has spoken with the anchor, suggesting both sides have grown weary of the intense scrutiny being placed on her morning program, “Megyn Kelly Today” and casting significant doubt on its future.
Word of the shift comes after Kelly stirred outrage on Tuesday during a segment in which she questioned why it was wrong for people to don “blackface” for Halloween costumes. The backlash contributed to CAA dropping Kelly as a client on Wednesday, according to an industry source (and first reported by the Hollywood Reporter).
*my emphasis
My suspicion is that the “new role” at the news division is to stay home during the remainder of her contract.
Update — Thanks for putting me on the recommended list.
Update — Today they’re running a rerun!!!
USA Today: 'Megyn Kelly Today' airs reruns as rumors of her exit percolate
A rerun of "Megyn Kelly Today" aired on Thursday, with NBC telling USA TODAY the show would not be live for the rest of the week, as rumors swirled her time on the morning show is coming to an end.
Update — AND SHE’S GONE. Second source.
“Megyn Kelly is done. She is not ever coming back,” an NBC executive familiar with the situation told the Daily Mail. “We are just working out timing of the announcement but mark my word – she is gone and will never be seen on NBC live again.”
