FOX News host Megyn Kelly announced tonight at the end of her show that she will be going on a much needed vacation for the next week-and-a-half.
Kelly has had a rough go this past week since the record-setting Republican primary debate.
Kelly reportedly received several threats after her performance at last week’s debate.
On Friday an online petition was set up to bar Megyn Kelly from future GOP debates.
OVER 50,000 HAVE SIGNED THE PETITION–
On Tuesday Twitter reacted to the news that Megyn was taking some time off—
@megynkelly Glad you're on vacation! Take an extra week or two!

@megynkelly And a lousy performance as a so-called moderator can ruin one's career. Think about that while you're on vacation, dear.

@MegynKelly Thought it was appropriate decision to take a leave on vacation after the treatment of @realDonaldTrump at the #GOPDebate

Of course, Megyn has many fans who will miss her.
@megynkelly suddenly announces she's going on vacation for 1 1/2 wks? If #FoxNews is coming down hard on her I'll start to hate #FOX.
