Someone should let these “brilliant” Times reporters know that FOX is MAKING money. So it’s actually OK to pay huge amounts of money one of the primary reasons for that! But then, what would Times people know about making money!!
The first two paragraphs do NOT pass the smell test.
Roger Ailes, like a skilled journeyman, knows how to use his tools.
He got a new tool and is hard at work making new audiences.
The tool is Glen Beck
Roger Ailes made $23 million last year in salary, bonuses and other compensation.
How does Roger’s earning compare to the CEO’s at ABC, NBC,CBS, CNN, NYT etc?
I suspect the above list of leftist media outlets earned a whole lot less than Ailes.
There’s an unrealized synergy available too: A simulcast of Fox News’ main evening (cable) newscast, each weekday on the Fox-TV network’s broadcast affiliates.
Ailes was right. Obama is an incompetent buffoon and a Marxist. The only reason he's a Marxist is because he grew up in that environment and NEVER EVER had the brains and energy to study, research any other economical and political philosophy.
Obama is an over rated nonintellectual Ivy Leaguer. It is unfortunate, that we the People voted for him and his party.
This country and the world will rue the day that we elected this Buffoon to the Presidency.
Remarkable article. It’s frightening that so many members of the Murdoch clan hate Ailes. I don’t think Rupert likes Fox to be that conservative, either, but at least he understands where the money is. When Murdoch dies, that may be the end of Fox News, unless he leaves it in the right hands. He had hoped to groom his kids for the job, but (as so often happens) they are clearly not suited for it.
On the whole, the article is fair, although it leads off with a false story that is later dismissed by Ailes. At least they had the grace to print the denial. But of course they know that many readers only see the lead paragraphs.
Yeah they are like King of dinosaur killers
