The New Roger Ailes Piece Will Make You Sick
But read it.
It is unfathomable to think, given Ailes’s reputation, given the number of women he propositioned and harassed and assaulted over decades, that senior management at Fox News was unaware of what was happening. What is more likely is that their very jobs included enabling, abetting, protecting, and covering up for their boss. “No one said no to Roger,” a Fox executive said.
It would be unfortunate if Gabriel Sherman’s latest report on Roger Ailes’ tenure at Fox News got lost over the long weekend, or in the scramble everyone goes through getting back after the holiday, so read it now or save it to whatever app you use that makes sure you don’t forget about it. Either way, be forewarned that no matter how low your expectations for the behavior described within you will still be disgusted and shamed by what you learn. That probably does not help sell the piece, but its important that you read it, so make sure you take some time to do that.
