Rumors have persisted for months of a feud between Fox News’ two biggest stars and Wednesday’s “Talking Points” didn’t exactly put them to rest.

Bill O’Reilly, who has been the flagship anchor on the network for 20 years, appeared to some on social media to have taken a brutal secret shot at his colleague Megyn Kelly, seen by many as the future of the network.
The “O’Reilly Factor” host was discussing the media’s unfair treatment of President-elect Donald Trump when he made the comment.
“Distrust of the media is at an all-time high in the U.S.A. so when left wing zealots masquerading as journalists pounded Trump without mercy voters grew numb to it,” O’Reilly said. “Some of that even happened on this network as a few commentators tried to make names for themselves at Trump’s expense.
Was he talking about Kelly? No one’s star on the network grew more during the election season than Kelly, whose feud with the president-elect was the stuff of headlines for months.
