Some juicy quotes from Michael Wolff’s new book:
It is not just Murdoch (and everybody else at News Corp.’s highest levels) who absolutely despises Bill O’Reilly, the bullying, mean-spirited, and hugely successful evening commentator, but [Fox News chief executive] Roger Ailes himself who loathes him. Success, however, has cemented everyone to each other … The embarrassment can no longer be missed. He mumbles even more than usual when called on to justify it. [Murdoch] barely pretends to hide the way he feels about Bill O’Reilly. And while it is not that he would give Fox up—because the money is the money; success trumps all—in the larger sense of who he is, he seems to want to hedge his bets.
