Roger Ailes didn’t just run a network.
He built a format. Childhood lesson first: jump, then the floor — “don’t trust anybody.” That bruise became a machine. Gates bought America's Talking right out from under him sending Ales into a fit of rage slamming a chair.. That was all that was needed..

“The first to plead his case seems right, until another comes and examines him.” — Proverbs 18:17
Test the show. Guard your heart. The
