NEW YORK (AP) — News Corp. said Friday that Fox News chief executive Roger Ailes has signed a new four-year contract.
Ailes, 72, first joined News Corp. in 1996. He will continue to oversee Fox News, the Fox Business Network, the Fox TV stations, Twentieth Television and MyNetwork TV. He will also continue to be a senior adviser to CEO Rupert Murdoch.
Ailes launched Fox News Channel in October 1996. Prior to launching Fox News, Ailes had been a campaign consultant to several Republicans presidential candidates, including Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush.
News Corp.’s widely traded Class A non-voting stock dipped 64 cents, or 2.5 percent, to $24.78 in afternoon trading Friday amid a broad-based market decline. In the last year, the stock has traded in a range between $15.93 and $25.50.

Posted on October 22, 2012 at 12:16amRoger, we really appreciate all that you’ve done to get the ball rolling in the right direction. However, you’re main liners — O’Reilly, Hannity, and Greta — are starting to slip.
O’Reilly is preoccupied with . . . well, O’Reilly (i.e. he, himself). Anyone with any credibility or something newsworthy to say is immediately interrupted with what O’Reilly thinks. I hate to depress the guy, but hey, most of us get sick of hearing him regurgitating “his opinion” as if it is holy.
Hannity has been a great soldier for old world Republican party lines. (God bless Ronald Regan.) Kewl. The thing is that most of us are really wanting a new President with a unique set of skills and qualifications to get us through (a) the onslaught of un-American progressive attacks, (b) government program slashing (e.g. 40-50%), and (c) a resumption of character, ethics, integrity, etc. Simply, Hannity has said the same 5-6 talking points so many times — over and over — that my head is spinning.
Greta is alright, but she’s not a professional political commentator. She’s like someone from the Society section covering the elections. First of all, she doesn’t seem capable of having a definitive opinion of her own (i.e. knowing right from wrong). And, second, too many go-nowhere interviews with unimportants, e.g. Donald Trump.
Finally, you failed by allowing the one great newscaster and educator — Glenn Beck — to get away. Shame on you for not creating for him what he is creat

Posted on October 19, 2012 at 11:12pmRoger Ailes is the reason Fox News has any credibility at all. I am glad to hear he is sticking it out. We need real journalism for a Romney presidency just as badly, to offset the 4 years of doomsaying the rest of the MSM is already preparing for.

Posted on October 20, 2012 at 4:21amGetting the terms/names of what these radical groups of people really are is important. Communists love to be called liberals – THEY ARE NOT LIBERALS. They took that name for cover. A real liberal is someone like John Stossel. A Progressive is not a liberal or a communist. But, Progressives love to be called liberals – THEY ARE NOT LIBERALS. They took that name for cover. A real progressive is one that wants to slowly, progressively change into bigger and bigger government. WHAT WE HAVE IN DC is Communists. 0 is a Muslim/Marxist mole. A Plant. A Sunni Muslim Marxist. Fox News is 7% owned by Alwaleed bin Talal, he is also funding most of the mosques being built in the US and is a Saudi Prince. If Fox News wants to free itself from this…Mr. Murdoch should buy back it’s stock from FOREIGN INVESTORS such as this…Fox news is not telling the truth, it can’t with a Sunni Muslim holding that much stock in News Corp. WISE UP AMERICA. The Blaze is Best!

Posted on October 20, 2012 at 4:58amOK perhaps you’ll answer the following, Right wing christian dude.
1. Which socialist programs has ‘conservative’ (lol) Romney proposed to do away with?
2. Is it conservative to nullify the 5th-7th amendments of the Constitution in a couple of paragraphs of the yearly defense spending bill?
3. How is the following statement not condoning “shared sacrifice”?
“I believe we have a responsibility to care for one another.” Mitt Romney
4. If Romney supports an economic system created by a Fabian Socialist is he… A. A laissez faire capitalist… or B. a centrally planning socialist?

Posted on October 19, 2012 at 8:20pmBest news I’ve heard all day. Roger Ailes is a hero. Fox News may not be perfect, but they are still light-years ahead of the competition. And it’s all thanks to this man. I’m so glad to hear he is sticking around.
