Roger Ailes Quotes

I don’t care what the polls say Picture Quote #1

I grew up in the era when Dan Rather hated Richard Nixon. He was a newsman, but you knew what his opinion was Picture Quote #1

Everybody who’s in the news business today was influenced in a positive way by Walter Cronkite. He had ability, humility and integrity, a rare combination Picture Quote #1

Everybody fears the unknown. But I have a strong feeling there’s something bigger than us. I don’t think all this exists because some rocks happened to collide. I’m at peace. When it comes, I’ll be fine, calm. I’ll miss life, though. Especially my family Picture Quote #1

Obama’s the one who never worked a day in his life. He never earned a penny that wasn’t public money. How many fund-raisers does he attend every week? How often does he play basketball and golf? I wish I had that kind of time Picture Quote #1

They [NPR] are, of course, Nazis. They have a kind of Nazi attitude. They are the left wing of Nazism. These guys don’t want any other point of view. They don’t even feel guilty using tax dollars to spout their propaganda. They are basically Air America with government funding to keep them alive Picture Quote #1

I’ve been in entertainment, politics, business, business coaching, public affairs, documentaries, programming, news, theater. So, there aren’t many things I see that I haven’t seen something like that before Picture Quote #1

Growing up in Ohio and just being kind of an average guy from flyover country - my dad was a factory guy - I try to put things on a screen that reflect reality. I don’t mind if people want to argue with that, or think that’s crazy Picture Quote #1

Just because someone thinks he is being attacked by the media doesn’t mean he is. Many times the media actually is being fair, and they’re attacking for good reason Picture Quote #1

Fighting with the media almost always is a mistake. You can’t win the argument, the media has the last word, and most times your argument is not justified Picture Quote #1

I can’t stand cruel people. And if I see people doing something mean to somebody else just to make themselves feel important, it really gets me mad Picture Quote #1

There is a - deep down, underneath all the work I do, I think there’s a laziness in me Picture Quote #1

I look for something unique, and I look for people who haven’t reached their potential. I think I’m pretty good at developing talent Picture Quote #1

I’ve found increasingly less effectiveness with the man-on-the street type of stuff that was very standard fare for years. It can still be effective, but it’s got to be done well Picture Quote #1

I think almost everything in life is life-experience, personality-driven Picture Quote #1

I don’t have any focus groups on talent and programming. If I need five people in a mall to be paid $40 to tell me how to do my job, I shouldn’t do my job Picture Quote #1

CNN and MSNBC, our primary competitors, are trying to figure out how to beat us. There are some good, smart people at those networks, and even occasionally a blind pig finds an acorn Picture Quote #1

In general, I think man-on-the- street ads and endorsement spots are having less and less effect on people. The electorate’s getting very sophisticated, and they want to make their own judgments Picture Quote #1

If you have a choice between qualifications and personal qualities when it comes to hiring people, go with personal qualities. You can teach them the job Picture Quote #1

I think the worst decision is usually no decision. If you make the wrong decision you can usually course-correct, but if you don’t make it, you’ve already made it, and it’s usually the bad one Picture Quote #1

I love rich people. Any time I needed a job, I went to a rich person. I like poor people, but they never had a job for me Picture Quote #1

People always describe my successes in life. My successes in life tend to be personal, not career Picture Quote #1

I’m very confident in the management team, very confident in the on-air people. That’s the whole secret to everything. It’s having people who love to work where they’re working and want to win Picture Quote #1

I think I have a good eye for talent. I think I’m smart enough to figure out what the mission is and achieve it. I achieve it by hiring good people Picture Quote #1

Almost everything I do is related to my ability to hire good people. I don’t take much of the credit myself. I think I have a good eye Picture Quote #1

CNN International, Al-Jazeera and BBC are the same in how they report mostly that America is wrong and bad Picture Quote #1

You never pull the trigger until you know you can win Picture Quote #1
