Ex-Fox News head Roger Ailes dead
He was not on the list.
Former Fox News CEO Roger Ailes died Thursday morning at 77,
Fox News reported.
The network shared a statement from Ailes’s wife, Elizabeth
Ailes, announcing the death. The statement was first obtained by conservative
website The Drudge Report.
“I am profoundly sad and heartbroken to report that my
husband, Roger Ailes, passed away this morning,” the statement said.
“During a career that
stretched over more than five decades, his work in entertainment, in politics,
and in news affected the lives of many millions. And so even as we mourn his
death, we celebrate his life.”
Ailes resigned as the head of Fox News in July 2016, after
20 years leading the network, amid sexual harassment allegations.
