RE: Roger Ailes dead
I have seen women who were sexually abused came out and said that he is now resting in Hell. I think we can have leeway for women who were victimized by predators like Ailes to say such things. It is hard to forget and forgive someone who have harmed your body and mentally.

He played a big role in destroying trust in the mainstream media. That's quite a legacy.

Pervert gets what he gets. I am sorry. He is as bad as those Baylor football players with women. Even though he did not raped them, but sexually harassed them is close to mind raping.

He must have been a very busy man for you to have encountered all these women.
Or maybe you have met everyone on earth like LazyTom.

RE: Roger Ailes dead
Came across this Ailes quote:
“I created a TV network for people 55 to dead,” Ailes boasted to us. “Nobody believed it could be done, but I did it. It’s for guys who sit on their couch with the remote all day and night.” That seemed a condescending way to talk about his audience—not to mention, much of the Republican base—but it was fascinating anyway.
“And they don’t want to see anyone like you,” he continued, looking directly at me. I wasn’t sure whether he meant a liberal, or a brunette newswoman in a dark pantsuit. “They don’t want to see you — they don’t even want to know that you exist!” And he was obliging them: he’d created a world where women were blonde and wore short tight skirts, men were in charge, and articulate, principled, complicated liberals – especially women — didn’t exist.

I have seen you butcher the English language and not have an ounce of shame for doing so. When will you learn how to type and spell properly?

Just sick people in general out there.
When Michael Moore kicks the bucket, I figure to see some colorful reactions in newspaper comments sections as well, tbh.
And whatever respect he should receive in building a media empire, the sexual harassment allegations that really soiled his personal reputation is (was) his to own. And these are fresh in people's minds having been in the past few years. He didn't have the "luxury" of a couple decades of fading memories.

"...Ailes’s competitors and critics acknowledged his success with Fox but never could understand how this “conservative” channel attracted and held so many viewers. Asked once how he accounted for this, Ailes told us it was pretty simple: NBC, CBS , ABC and his cable competitors aimed their programming at audiences on the East and West Coasts. He programmed for the country in between.
His liberal critics smirked at his famous Fox banner, “fair and balanced,” but failed to appreciate his deeper insight. A relentless competitor, Ailes thought traditional television had tilted its news and U.S. politics by elevating a single point of view. He saw a market for news and commentary that no one else offered, and he filled it (including a weekend show with Wall Street Journal editors)."

RE: Roger Ailes dead
Juan Williams on Roger Ailes:
http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2017/05/1...peech.html
"Roger Ailes saw me coming through the door to his office and with his needling wit he said: “We can’t have you working here.”
My jaw dropped. Roger knew how to get your attention with a cutting comment in good times and bad. I was going through a very bad time.
This was late October of 2010 and the night before I’d been fired by NPR. Later, I was labeled a bigot and in need of psychiatric care by the head of a major, national media operation, the then-president of NPR (National Public Radio).
Ailes, who died Thursday at 77, started laughing as he watched my reaction. Then the executives in the room went from stone faced to laughing along with the boss. Ailes told me to sit down and said he was offering me a new contract and increased role with the network...."
