Kim Davis News: Megyn Kelly, ‘Good Morning America’ Book Interviews With Kentucky Clerk
Kentucky clerk Kim Davis committed to her first formal interviews to Megyn Kelly and "Good Morning America" this week.
The Rowan County clerk appeared on the Sept. 22 episode of ABC's "Good Morning America," and will also be featured on Fox News' "The Kelly File" on Sept. 23, according to TV Guide.
During her appearance on "Good Morning America" Tuesday morning, Davis took part in an in-depth interview steered by ABC News' Paula Faris, which was taped in Davis' hometown in Morehead, Kentucky.
"I can't put my name on a license that doesn't represent what God ordained marriage to be," Davis told Faris.
When asked what has hurt her the most through this whole ordeal with the media, Davis said how people have labeled her, calling her names like "Hitler" and "homophobe."
"What people say about me does not define who I am. That's everybody's opinion and that's everybody's right," Davis said.
"I've been called things and names that I didn't even say when I was in the world. Those names don't hurt me," Davis added. "What probably hurt me the worst is when someone tells me that my God does not love me or that my God is not happy with me, that I am a hypocrite of a Christian."
When Kelly interviews Davis from her New York studio, she plans to ask the clerk whether she went against a federal judge's order when it came to altering marriage license forms of same-sex couples.
In September, Davis became an instant media fixation after she refused to sign a marriage license in Rowan County for a same-sex couple due to her religious beliefs. This led her to be held in contempt of court, resulting in her spending five days in jail.
While Davis has been under harsh scrutiny from the media, she's also received an outpouring of support. Upon her release from jail she was greeted with a rally, which included Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee.
Davis is still refusing to issue same-sex marriage licenses, which has forced her deputies to replace her in carrying out these responsibilities.
