Good historical coverage of the rise of Fox News and it's personalities. Reinforced the notion that one major difference between conservative & liberal ideologies is that personalities gravitate toward either, the innate self interest that there should be no limit on what one can accumulate for oneself (Trump perhaps) vs. those who have a sense of material personal sacrifice for the greater good.
Side note: Over the years I've, quite by accident, observed a high correlation between skinny, attractive blonde females and conservative media as coincidentally this documentary also seemed to find.
This is nothing more than a staged Soros backed hit piece on a right wing genius. Filled with haters, has beens and wanna bes all claiming to know Roger. Sure.
It's edited to make him look evil.
And believe it or not, they actually take the leap and make him a Nazi sympathizer! Unreal. These clowns should never get money to make another film.

Fantastic documentary about the horrible life of mega-troll Ailes. His poor wife.. so many sexual assault and rape lawsuit settlements, which led to FAUX.. errr.. Fox News firing him and his death soon after. Ailes was one of the worst humans this country has ever seen. Pure evil. His bloated, obese body reflected the ugliness inside. What a sad, tragic, insecure man. The world is a better place without him in it.
This man was a piece of garbage. It doesn't matter what his political leanings were, although they were based in paranoia and ignorance.
He was creative enough, and knew people well enough, to manipulate them.
Fox News is based on fear. It's based on a yearning for something in the past that never was.
This man created it.
And now we have this documentary.

As more people see this great documentary, the rating will most certainly go up and be closer to the excellent critical reviews this doc has received. If you want to know the genisis for our currently polarized country, it all begins with one man - Roger Ailes. We went from simply disagreeing with each other on political matters to hating each other simply because we have a difference of opinion. This doc shows how Ailes basically created the landscape for the horrible condition of our current political discourse. The doc also shows how Ailes treated women like property he could use and abuse and discard at will. A must-see documentary if there ever was one.
