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

More quotes by Roger Ailes
I don't care what the polls say.
Roger Ailes
There's something about the American people: They have such an innate sense of fairness that the red light goes on and the bells go off the second you approach that line. Any kind of personal attack is verboten. You shouldn't do it it's not worth it.
Roger Ailes
It's better to be in charge of change than to have to react to change.
Roger Ailes
You never pull the trigger until you know you can win.
Roger Ailes
Anybody's position on an issue, anything they've said about an issue, and any way they've voted on an issue is fair game. You have every right to question that and go after it aggressively.
Roger Ailes
Reporters may be friendly-but if you get through life without having a reporter as a friend, that may be an advantage. If you insist on having one as a friend, don't do interviews with him.
Roger Ailes
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.
Roger Ailes
Don't back off on traditional values. It's important to show respect and tolerance for others, but they must show the same respect for your values. Tolerance is a two-way street.
Roger Ailes
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.
Roger Ailes
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.
Roger Ailes
I only understand friendship or scorched earth.
Roger Ailes
I think it's because I'm unpredictable. I view every situation, every race, and every candidate differently I try not to rely on something that worked before.
Roger Ailes
Phrase it in an interesting way don't phrase it in a mean or unfriendly way. Bob Dole said that if there's anything he would have done differently, he would have said [to George Bush] Start telling the truth about my record instead of Stop lying about my record. Frankly, had he done that, life might be different for Bob Dole today.
Roger Ailes
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.
Roger Ailes
The candidates that can’t face Fox, can’t face al Qaeda.
Roger Ailes
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.
Roger Ailes
If you want to get unpaid media coverage, you had better be quotable. It's an interesting problem, because very few candidates are quotable.
Roger Ailes
You cover the bad news about America. You do. But you don't get up in the morning hating your country. And so, until somebody shows me lines at the border trying to get out, I think there's some good news.
Roger Ailes
One of the reasons I'm in this business is because I have absolute respect for the people who say, You know what? I think I can make this a little better and I'm willing to get in and try. Because, I'll tell you, there are a hell of a lot of reasons to stay away from running for office today.
Roger Ailes
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.
Roger Ailes
