Jean Carroll. Kelly also criticized the media&#8217;s coverage of the \u2062case,\u200d raising concerns about the lack of objectivity and open-mindedness in their\u200b reporting.<\/p>\n<p>One \u200bof Kelly&#8217;s main points was the \u2064possibility that Carroll may not \u2062be telling the truth, and therefore,\u2064 Trump should be \u200dallowed to defend \u2062himself if\u2064 he did not assault her. She questioned why the media is not open to considering this perspective and seems \u2063to give Carroll the benefit of the \u2062doubt \u2062without proper evidence.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She&#8217;s a wack \u2062job!\u200d What&#8217;s\u2064 he supposed to say?&#8221; Kelly exclaimed, highlighting the lack of consequences for Carroll&#8217;s public criticism of Trump. She emphasized that Trump was\u200c never criminally convicted for assaulting Carroll, and the decision was made by a civil jury\u2063 based on the likelihood \u2062of \u2063the assault. Kelly argued that this should be taken into consideration when discussing the case.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Kelly pointed out the challenges of defending oneself against an accusation\u200b that occurred \u206230 years ago, highlighting the difficulty of recalling specific details from such a\u200b long time ago. She acknowledged the importance of taking allegations\u2063 seriously but\u200d also emphasized the need for\u2062 fair and thorough investigation before jumping to conclusions.<\/p>\n<p>Joining \u2064Kelly on the episode, journalist Glenn Greenwald expressed \u2064his concern about the &#8220;weaponization of \u2062the\u200d judicial system&#8221; and the bias of some judges against Trump. Greenwald argued\u200c that this \u2064case reflects a larger problem of\u2062 using \u200dlegal mechanisms to attack political \u2063opponents, rather than seeking truth and justice.<\/p>\n<p>Kelly&#8217;s comments and \u2064Greenwald&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nikki-haley-says-hamas-trying-to-earn-favor-with-us-by-releasing-hostages\/\" title=\"Nikki Haley: Hamas Releases Hostages to Gain US Favor\">concerns shed light<\/a> on the \u200bpotential flaws in the way the media and the judicial system handle high-profile\u200d cases\u200d involving public\u200d figures. It is essential to maintain objectivity, \u2064fairness, and due process, regardless \u2063of personal biases and\u2063 political affiliations.<\/p>\n<p>As\u2064 this case continues to unfold, it is crucial for the media and the public to listen to different perspectives, consider all the evidence, and ensure \u200bthat justice is served. Kelly&#8217;s challenge to the\u2062 $83 million fine and \u2062her criticism of the media&#8217;s coverage serve as a reminder of the importance\u2063 of a fair and balanced approach to reporting and analyzing legal matters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Journalist Megyn Kelly criticized the $83 million fine imposed on Donald Trump in the defamation case of E.
