<p>Megyn Kelly slammed Sally Field after the actress apologized for being white during her acceptance speech for a Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2023 Screen Actors Guild Awards on Sunday.</p>
<p>During Sirius XM&#8217;s &#8220;The Megyn Kelly Show&#8221; <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Pvu0lZu8ig">podcast</a>, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/megyn-kelly">host</a> spoke with guests Adam Carolla and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/drew-pinsky">Dr. Drew Pinsky</a> about what Field said at the SAG Awards — and asked why the star felt the need to say she was &#8220;sorry for being a little white girl with privilege.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;She&#8217;s [Field] very sorry about one thing and that appears to be the fact that she&#8217;s white,&#8221; <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/megyn-kelly-says-don-lemon-has-a-pattern-of-making-sexist-comments-to-his-female-colleagues-brings-receipts">Kelly</a> explained. She then played the clip of Field telling the audience, “I was a little white girl with a pug nose born in Pasadena, California. And when I look around this room tonight, I know my fight, as hard as it was, was lightweight compared to some of yours. I thank you. And I applaud you.&#8221;</p>

<p>Kelly asked why the actress apologized for being &#8220;raised a little white girl and that she wasn&#8217;t of a different race with a bigger struggle.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Because news flash, white girls in America don&#8217;t have any troubles that are worth remembering when you&#8217;re in front of a group that has a lot of people of color,&#8221; the host sarcastically shared. &#8220;It&#8217;s such bologna, Dr. Drew. It&#8217;s such pathetic, obvious virtue signaling.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Sally Field could get up there and say &#8216;I came up in the industry where the casting couch, which was alive and well, that&#8217;s why we produced people like Harvey Weinstein,'&#8221; she added. &#8220;&#8216;Too many women from Marilyn Monroe forward have had to be subjected to that nonsense in order to get on the big screen. So I&#8217;m grateful for the opportunities that I created for myself and I nailed them. I did really well and I feel good about it.'&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;She [Field] could&#8217;ve said something like that true to her personality,&#8221; Kelly continued. &#8220;No, she&#8217;s basically got to be like &#8216;I&#8217;m the little white girl from Pasadena and I basically suffered nothing like you people did here in this room.&#8217; How does she know? It&#8217;s so diminishing to people of color who are in the room. She just assumes that they are all oppressed? Why should she assume that they&#8217;ve all had it so bad?&#8221;</p>

<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/adam-carolla">Carolla</a> said when it comes to Hollywood it&#8217;s all about saying what you need to in order to be employed.</p>
<p>&#8220;Actors need employment and as we&#8217;ve seen over the last few years people will cancel anybody and they&#8217;ll never come back,&#8221; the comedian/podcaster shared. &#8220;So, giving speeches about systemic racism makes you more employable and that&#8217;s why &#8230; that&#8217;s what these people are doing.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Maybe you [Field] can help by stopping the continuation of dividing us all so much,&#8221; the host said. &#8220;Could you just shut up? Just f***ing say thank you, honestly.&#8221;</p>
