Roger Over and Out


It was a fanciful fantasy while it lasted. Fox News boss Roger Ailes has no intentions of running for president, contrary to speculation in Politico this a.m. that got a lot of media buzz.

Ailes through an aide: “This country needs fair and balanced news more now than ever before, so I’m going to decline a run for the presidency. Besides, I can’t take the pay cut.”

No shit, Sherlock. Ailes rakes in $24 mil a year. And Kenneth Feinberg, there's not a damn thing you can do about it...
