"The Loudest Voice" on Showtime

I'm just wondering if anyone else has been watching this miniseries. It really shows just how dishonest, and evil, Ailes and the people at FOX were, and still are.

even though I barely knew who Roger Ailes was and do not keep tabs on Fox news. I saw an interesting interview with Russell Crowe yesterday and he emphasized he got his take on Ailes knowing Ailes started out being a Broadway producer of musicals and producer of the first big variety show, Mike Douglas. Russell also said he thinks Ailes could have easily made Fox news a leftist organization and that CNN, CNBC, NY Times and WashPo tilt toward the left side. That made me feel very uneasy, Russell comparing Fox News to the other news outlets. I kind of doubted Russell knows that much about American politics, being Australian, not being very political and being very rich and out of touch.

I should add, Russell Crowe is one of my favorite actors.

Trump’s words now mirror Ailes back then and what a POS he was...

After I DVR next weeks final episode, I'll binge watch and let my hate and scorn all surface and play out on one night, and not drag it out over 5 weeks like Showtime wants.
