Mr.Ailes is very ill with diabetes. Taking his $40M golden parachute at this point will help his family after he is gone.

Did he “score” with his unwanted “advances” earlier in his life?

I am told that James and Lachlan are drooling-moron leftists who just can’t wait to get in good with the rest of the Satanic left.

If true, then Fox News more than likely to lean even further left!

Maybe Roger will create a ‘True’ conservative news network to compete.

I've taken to watching MSNBC. At least I know they're liberals and leftists and not simply hiding behind a false moniker like much of Fox.

That is...when I watch TV which is about 2-4 hours per week.

Is that why Megan Kelly came out today and said he sexually abused her 10 YEARS ago, and is that why when her contract was up and FNC wasn’t going to renew it, she got a new contract???

I smell a fish....

“I’ve taken to watching MSNBC...”

I do too from time to time and file it under the heading of “know your enemy.” I also think it is dangerous to live in an ideological echo-chamber.

Yawn. I don’t waste my time with Faux News anymore. I doubt things will get any better with his departure.

"I smell a fish...."

What I have seen in business, hmmm... They hired someone for shall we say managing how the build the widget. Within a short time, it became obvious they were in over their head. So rather than let them go, they set them up with the 3 reasons to fire including the charge they grabbed someones butt and I will neither confirm or deny labor was involved. The point is, if they want to get rid of you they can create the 3 reasons and you are helpless to do so.

I am not exonerating Alies, but in a world where watching your back as if you were working for Stalin or Saddam is the norm, I don't rule out anything anymore...

If healthy, OANN could be a great partner for Ailes to work his magic again.
