Megyn Kelly sparked a debate after making controversial remarks about the female leaders of the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFP) as wildfires rage across the city.
The conservative media personality criticized the women’s appearance, calling them “obese” and saying she would prefer to be rescued by a “strong man.”
Kelly’s comments were targeted toward Kristin Crowley, a 22-year veteran and the department’s first woman and openly gay fire chief; Kristine Larson, the department’s equity and human resources bureau head; and Jamie Brown, the training and support bureau commander.
