Journalist and podcaster Megyn Kelly offered Kaitlan Collins a “pro-tip” in a blistering critique of the CNN anchor with a “boring personality.”
The host of “The Megyn Kelly Show” ripped into Collins after she defended the unbiased news delivered by herself and her network in recent interviews. Kelly suggested the 32-year-old former White House reporter should learn to smile rather than look like “such a cold-hearted b**** all the time.”
“I will submit to the record, her biggest sin is not that she is biased, though she is. It’s that she’s boring. She’s extremely boring with no personality,” Kelly said on her SiriusXM show on Tuesday.

“I have a pro tip for her, smile. Try smiling,” Kelly continued. “Try not to be in your delivery like such a cold-hearted b**** all the time, because it gives people nothing to bond to.”
The former Fox News host also lambasted the notion that CNN is trying to make Collins out to be a “star” by having her anchor “The Source.”
“I’m sorry, but she’s only a star with the leftists,” Kelly said.
Kelly noted a clip of Collins on Bill Maher’s HBO show “Real Time” last week in which she claimed that her network was unbiased.
“You made press because you were on Stephen Colbert’s show, and he said something like, ‘You guys at CNN just report the news straight.’ And the crowd burst into laughter,” Maher said as he brought up another interview Collins had done with Stephen Colbert on CBS. “I’m a big rooter for CNN, but that tells you a lot, doesn’t it?”
“I feel like I can speak with authority on this,” Collins told Maher.“I’m from Alabama, I’m from a very red state, I have a very conservative family, a lot of them who are Trump voters, they watch my show every night, and they know that they can trust me, that we call bulls–t on every side.”
Kelly called her out on the claim.
“The fact that she has some roots in Alabama does not make her a fair and balanced reporter,” she said.
Kelly continued to hammer Collins and her network, playing multiple clips of CNN segments that showed the biased so-called reporting.
“That is why alternative media … have done so well because people are sick of this s–t,” the podcast host said. “They can’t stand being force-fed this nonsense by these mainstream media outlets.”
Kelly’s own show proves her point.

“Kelly boasts that despite the fact that she only has six staffers, she has managed to get numbers that put her in the range of the accounts of legacy media outlets. The Megyn Kelly Show’s YouTube channel, which has 2.3 million subscribers, had 116.8 million views in July — more views than the official channels for NBC News (78 million) CBS News (83 million), Sky News (87 million), the BBC News (72 million) and CNBC (17 million),” Semafor noted.
