According to the Hollywood Reporter, Roger Ailes is to resign as chairman and CEO of Fox News. Rupert Murdoch is to take over Ailes' responsibilities. The resignation comes after accusations of sexual harassment. It is rumoured that he will receive $40 million as he leaves, but that he will be subject to a non-compete agreement.
Ailes had been with Fox News since its founding in 1996. Prior to that, he was a Republican political consultant.

There seems to be something about being in power or being rich that turns some mens' heads and makes them think of women as just objects. I don't know if it's the power/money itself, or something about the kind of personality who is likely to become rich and powerful, but it turns people into flaming assholes.

On the flip side, there does seem to be a subset of women who are attracted to guys with money and power. Truly, the guys with power/money and their gold-digging wives/girlfriends deserve each other.

Indeed they do, and may they make one another precisely as miserable as they deserve.
