Al Roker Has a Reputation of Being ‘Adored’ and ‘Professional’ at NBC Despite Megyn Kelly’s Insults
Sunny Al Roker’s Today family is rushing to his defense after their ousted colleague Megyn Kelly called the beloved weatherman one of the “meanest” celebrities she’s ever met.
“Al is adored here,” one NBC source confides. “People know him as warm, funny and professional.” Another says, “Al shows up early, coaches the team and genuinely cares about everyone.”
Sources dish tension between the two dates back to 2018, when the blond bigmouth stirred controversy on Megyn Kelly Today by saying she couldn’t see what was so offensive about blackface. Roker, who is Black, criticized her on-air, calling the incident “abhorrent” and demanding she issue a more pronounced apology.
