Rumors of Megyn Kelly's potential departure from Fox News were amplified by Facebook's automated trending algorithms, which mistakenly promoted a bogus story about her being fired.

Speculation suggests Kelly may be positioning herself for a move to a major network or a potential media venture with Donald Trump.
