FNC's Megyn Kelly And Kirsten Powers Fight Over Black Panthers Case



(Real Clear Politics) - "You don't seem to know what you're talking about," FOX News Channel's Megyn Kelly told columnist Kirsten Powers after she claimed nothing illegal happened when members of the New Black Panthers threatened voters at a polling station in 2008. Powers says J. Christian Adams, who exposed the Department of Justice's involvement in dismissing the case, "a conservative activist posing as a whistleblower." Arguing and talking over each other ensued. At one point, Kelly threatened to turn off Powers' microphone. "You can disagree all want, as long as you have your facts right, which you don't," Kelly said at the end of the exchange.
