One hopes that they cannot, that they (and Ailes) will take the full brunt of the hit. Just the fact that the Fox culture -- one which maybe many people suspected for years -- allowed such things to happen, speaks volumes as to their credibility as a news source. They are not so much that than they are a vehicle to bring nubile, young blondes into Ailes' chambers, no doubt preferably nude.

The whole thing is disgusting.
