Ailes Resigns From Fox News

It’s official. Roger Ailes has resigned as head of Fox News effective immediately amid the myriad of allegations of improper sexual conduct. You have to wonder about the timing of his resignation – is he hoping that Trump’s big speech tonight drives him off the front pages or that this is his one last power play to steal some headlines from Trump. Only he and the Murdochs know.

I’m not sure this is the end for Ailes’ troubles either. Gretchen Carlson’s suit was against him personally so I imagine it will still go forward. And, now that he has lost his position of power, you wonder how many others will finally come forward and also sue him.
