Mediaite said Kelly was offered a four-year Fox News contract at $25 million per year, but rejected it after having already made up her mind to jump to NBC News. Kelly will host her last program on Fox on Friday, though the 46-year-old's current contract officially expires in July.
The terms of Kelly's deal with NBC have not been disclosed, but according to The New York Times, she will not be appearing on Fox’s cable news competitor, MSNBC.
Instead, an afternoon "news and discussion" program will be created for NBC with a time slot yet to be determined. Kelly will also host a weekly Sunday news magazine program.
