New York Magazine has published a new report in which it suggests that Fox News chairman Roger Ailes could be manipulated by Donald Trump. In an article published Monday, New York's Gabriel Sherman claims that Trump is holding onto private and potentially damaging information about the Fox News chief and could use it as leverage against him.

“If Ailes ever truly went to war against Trump, Trump would have the arsenal to launch a retaliatory strike,” Sherman writes.

...

How ridiculous. If Fox isn’t already at war with Trump, I don’t know who is.

Unless Trump has pictures of Kelly and Ailes in a compromising position, I can’t imagine what he could know that could damage FOX.

Its not Megyn Kelly that I is anti-Trump. Its the long list/cadre of pundits they have which are overwhelmingly neocon and vociferously anti-Trump.

This includes:
Krauthammer
Karl Rove
Bernie Goldberg
Charles Cooke
John Fund
Michael Barone
Norm Coleman
Ben Shapiro
Rich Lowry
Jonah Goldberg
The list goes on...

Good grief! As if anyone or their dog is interested in that old fat jerk Ailes and his *secrets*.

You couldn’t PAY me enough to read about his secrets.

“What he has not done is expose any secrets about Ailes.”

Trump is honorable — unlike Fox News.

This is the kind of rumor the Trump supporters start just before they release a slew of phony allegations.

Good grief. A thousand posts a day on this board about how brutally Trump is treated. A thousand more saying Trump is blackmailing Ailes.

I am not a Clinton.
I just don’t understand how both can be true.

I will not watch Fox News anymore. CNN is now more fair and balanced.

Um, I think the term refers to a fist wearing "chain mail" armor, with a velvet or lace glove over it, a metaphor for extreme force or brutality, with a veneer of beauty or gentility in its presentation.

Sometimes also spoken as "An iron fist in a lace glove"...

I know what it means but I decided to turn it into a pun.

I dont watch any of these freaking news channels anymore.

They are as unreliable as a broken down model A.

I get my news off from the internet. That way I can sort it all out myself, although I do watch Newsmax if I get the chance, which isnt often.

Sorry, my bad for not getting it. Maybe Kasich himself will deliver it when he’s Postmaster General. :)
