Roger Ailes has signed a new contract to continue as chief executive of Fox News Channel, the network that has become a ratings and financial powerhouse since he created it two decades ago, 21st Century Fox said Thursday.
The parent company moved quickly to lock up Ailes, 75, after speculation about his future emerged last week following news that company patriarch Rupert Murdoch was turning over some power to his sons Lachlan and James. Terms, including the length of the contract, were not disclosed. Ailes contract was to expire next June.
Fox News is wildly popular with conservatives and has significantly more viewers than its news competitors. Its look, philosophy and personnel are a reflection of its chief executive in a manner unlike any other network. Ailes also oversees the Fox Business Network and Fox-owned local affiliates.

Ahhh, no.
75 years old and still working everyday and people are complaining about people having to work until 70 to begin retirement. People complaining about having to work until 70 should be ashamed of themselves. Nobody should be retired for 30 years. 10-15 years is way more then enough.
It is not wildly popular with conservatives because they are not conservative.
Quite frankly, I think he needs to be replaced. He ruined that Network and changed it (like the Libtard ones) into ridiculous Reality programming.
Good!
Ailes will be there to ride herd on any Fox talking head who has the audacity to say something negative about The Great White Hope of the NWO.... JEB!
As my Daddy told me “I don’t care what you do. Be a ditch digger if it makes you happy because you will be doing it a long time.” Roger is having fun, why not get paid?
