Fox News Channel president Roger Ailes says all is well between himself and Donald Trump after the real estate mogul spent days lambasting the network and anchor Megyn Kelly for the questions he received at the first Republican debate.
Ailes said in a memo obtained by CNN that he had a blunt but cordial conversation with Trump on Monday.
"Donald Trump and I spoke today," Ailes said in the statement. "We discussed our concerns, and I again expressed my confidence in Megyn Kelly. She is a brilliant journalist and I support her 100 percent."
I assured him that we will continue to cover this campaign with fairness & balance, Ailes continued. We had a blunt but cordial conversation and the air has been cleared."
The memo is in line with a tweet Trump sent out earlier in the day saying he and Ailes had smoothed things over.

I think it’s just business. The gotcha questions were a stunt to get Trump to lose his temper. They got a lot of publicity, but he wasn’t expecting the blowback they got. So now he’s smoothing things over with Trump.
Machine Gun Kelly unloaded her “war on women” magazine on Donald. He’s still standing. She’s bleeding out.
Be a news reader for Sesame Street Kelly Megyn (h/t ladies). Barkeeper, make me another Bloody Megyn.
HOORAY Donald.
There. Doesn’t that feel good?
I don't by that.
The words of Murdoch read like ownership's "endorsement" of a failing MLB Manager.
This is how things are done.
True. I kinda liked it the way it was. And I knew what you meant, Norm.
According to Ailes.........
New Motto
Fox News Channel
Politics - Fair and Balance
Quite probably---remember Trump said he "got them 24 million viewers and he got zip out of it" ehehehhe. When ya dump on the Trump, ya end up as a chump with a bump--or two.
If you like my Shakespeare, you should hear me do the great poet...Andrew Dice Clay...
Now THERE is a guy that can do flowery language! ;)
James Murdoch is the loser son who nearly burned down the Murdoch empire in the UK over the phone hacking scandal. James is the failing manager but he’s the owner’s son!
“The idea that there was any disagreement between Ailes/Fox and Trump is a sham.”
Yup, and all the faux outrage on twitter, facebook, and the fox email servers was a sham, too. Damn those fakebots on twitter, fb, and email. They are all a sham, I tell ya’. A sham! How dare such a sham threaten the next quarterly earnings report of News Corp. :)
Megyn Kelly has just did a “Let’s move on” at the top of her show.
......"She is a brilliant journalist and I support her 100 percent." "
Meaning:I will give her a letter of recommendation.
So, I guess she didn’t apologize?
Annie's been around the block.
Probably more than once lol :)
Bingo!
She came on her show with an in your face comment on her and Trump. What a loser. We never watch her anyway.
LOLOL
No Hugh Hewitt is moderating the next debate from the Reagan library.
