Roger Ailes Fears Muslims, Gays: Report

On the heels of a big profile in New York magazine, Rolling Stone has an article about Fox News chief Roger Ailes that sheds some light on his personality. According to Dan Cooper, the first managing editor of Fox News, Ailes had bombproof glass installed in his office—and personally inspected plexiglass samples—because, he said, “they’ll be protesting down there, those gays.” Rolling Stone also says Ailes tells people he is a target of al Qaeda—and once put Fox News on lockdown when he spotted a dark-looking person in apparent Muslim garb on the security monitor on his desk. It turned out to be a janitor.
