Megyn Kelly, former Fox News anchor, has reportedly announced the launch of her own podcast network called MK Media. This initiative comes as part of a growing trend of political and news-focused creators establishing their own platforms.
MK Media aims to provide a collaborative space for creators and journalists within the news and entertainment sectors.
The network will debut with three flagship shows: journalist Mark Halperin’s news show, “Next Up,” culture columnist Maureen Callahan’s “The Nerve,” and political commentator Link Lauren’s program, “Spot On.”
Kelly expressed her enthusiasm for the project, stating her desire to support intelligent and fair-minded individuals as they build their audiences.
She highlighted her admiration for her first collaborators—Halperin, Callahan, and Lauren—anticipating that listeners will enjoy their insights.
Mark Halperin, known for his work with ABC News and Bloomberg, emphasized the quality of the MK Media platform, likening it to a valuable creative environment.
Callahan, a former writer for Vanity Fair and the New York Post, shared her excitement about her show, which will delve into pop culture and celebrity scandals.
Meanwhile, Lauren, a former communications advisor for Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s campaign, aims to deliver fact-based and engaging news content.
Kelly, who transitioned from a successful cable TV career to a thriving podcasting presence, has already garnered a large following on YouTube, with over 3.5 million subscribers.
The launch of MK Media reflects the increasing popularity of right-leaning podcasts in the current media landscape, where video content is becoming increasingly influential.
As the network grows, Kelly plans to explore other genres beyond news and entertainment, expanding her reach in the evolving creator economy.
