Just breaking on a banner on Drudge. Apparently Drudge has the exclusive so there will be more soon. This may have something to do with Meghan Kelly announcing today that she was also sexually harassed ten years ago by Ailes...More soon.

HEADLINE just changed to:


AILES FOXNEWS DRAMA

...so maybe Drudge jumped the gun.

UPDATE:
THIS Just added to top of Drudge page:



'Roger Ailes has never sexually harassed Megyn Kelly. In fact, he has spent much of the last decade promoting and helping her to achieve the stardom she earned, for which she has repeatedly and publicly thanked him'...

Looks like Drudge jumped the gun...is backtracking...or still setting up it's page for the story. Weird to watch in real time.

This is not an exclusive. I've been reading about it for the last 1/2 hour.

Several more sources already.

'ABC' had a story earlier today that mentioned Ailes may resign from FOX.

I saw the earlier stories about Kelly.

Looks like Drudge thinks they have an exclusive on the actual resignation.

This could be a new era for Fox without the creeper...One that is truly Fair and Balanced.

Looks like Drudge DID have it first...but walked it back, as I suggested.
From your source:


Fox initially confirmed Drudge’s report to The Daily Beast, and subsequently walked back that confirmation.
Additionally, Drudge replaced a headline touting the buyout with a new one on "Fox News Drama," including a statement from the network: “Roger Ailes has never sexually harassed Megyn Kelly.

In fact, he has spent much of the last decade promoting and helping her to achieve the stardom she earned, for which she has repeatedly and publicly thanked him.” And according to a statement from 21st Century Fox: “Roger is at work. The review is ongoing. The only agreement that is in place is his existing employment agreement.”

It's not too exclusive being that I've been reading about this for at least a day or two already. Although this might be making it official now.

Apparently from what I read Murdock and Co. had their own private investigation going on into the claims being made against him and they must have found something, even though nobody knows what exactly. But the rumor was that they decided to either let him quit on his own or they'd let him go, it was his choice.

So whatever it was they found out must have been enough for them to not want any part of it.

There hasn't been anything mentioned about Megan Kelly though.

I dunno, I saw on CNN a lil while ago Ailes was given a deadline to resign by tonight and that Megan Kelly has also come out and said Ailes sexually harassed her too.

Nothing being announced on FOX, itself.

Of course not...they have gone into self preservation mode to keep the advertisers from bailing. If their ratings go down they will lose money....can't have that.

What do you think will happen when they realize that the GOP has self destructed?

Curious to see if Drudge was right about the $40M buyout.

They won't comment, deny or confirm anything about an ongoing investigation.

FOX denies the earlier Drudge Report statement.
MODS...please delete if this is no longer considered relevant.


Late on Tuesday, the Drudge Report said that Mr Ailes had left Fox News with a $40m severance package. 21st Century Fox denied the report in a tweeted statement, saying: “Roger is at work. The review is ongoing. The only agreement that is in place is his existing employment agreement.”

Damn that Obama, his fault you know lol.... You look at the women on fox news, Im sure they are coached on how to keep their legs crossed so tightly while center stage of the camera or their panties will show.

Apparently they can't broadcast news without their legs and cleavage exposed. They are nothing more than strippers really.

That being said, If what the guy did was illegal can him. But a 40 million payout???> I'm sure they are all rich anyway.

So, a total Trump victory then.

Same day the GOP convention destructed the never Trump movement, the big cheese that The Donald took on gets canned at Fox.

DRUDGE claims another 'EXCLUSIVE'...
Kelly's sexual harassment complaint was that she didn't like the way Ailes hugged her.
