If there’s anyone that has carved a unique niche in the world of conservative political reporting, it’s Megyn Kelly.
The former Fox News personality, who made a name for herself at the network years ago, has gone from her roots at network television to one of the biggest names in independent media… and having her own giant podcast network and following.
But Kelly isn’t slowing down her momentum, as she announced this morning the creation of a new media conglomerate — MK Media.
Kelly broke the news this morning, telling her audience that the exciting new venture will be a “podcast network of video and audio shows, which we are going to produce and help promote.”
Kelly said they would be “launching with three out of the gate,” with the new shows set to premiere in April and May.

The first three, confirmed personalities to join MK Media are:
- Mark Halperin, the seasoned political journo who launched his own media platform, 2Way, in 2024;
- Maureen Callahan, a Daily Mail columnist who often joins Kelly to discuss pop culture and entertainment stories; and,
- Link Lauren, a former advisor to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., who will host a show focused on news and commentary.
“I’m thrilled to launch MK Media and to use our platform to help sane, reasonable, good-humored people build their own followings in this new media space,” says Kelly.
“I am a huge fan of Mark’s, Maureen’s and Link’s and I know our audience will be as excited as I am to hear more from them.”
Kelly has been a pioneer of using online mediums to reach younger audiences.
During the 2024 presidential election, other personalities like Joe Rogan and Theo Von became both go-to news sources for information on both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris’ campaigns to get their message out to those huge audiences.
Donald Trump appeared on Joe Rogan’s podcast, but Harris did not despite reports that she was asked to join.
In 2020 left mainstream TV (NBC) to enter the world of online content creation, despite being labeled a “conservative journalist” by many peers.
The move has clearly paid off.
