Ousted Fox News CEO Roger Ailes DEAD At 77

Former Fox News Chairman and CEO Roger Ailes has died at 77, according to weartv.

“I am profoundly sad and heartbroken to report that my husband, Roger Ailes, passed away this morning. Roger was a loving husband to me, to his son Zachary, and a loyal friend to many.

He was also a patriot, profoundly grateful to live in a country that gave him so much opportunity to work hard, to rise—and to give back. 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’ wife Elizabeth said in a statement posted on the site.

Palm Beach County Medical Examiner told WPEC reporter Michael Buczyner that Ailes’ remains will be brought there within a few hours.
