Roger Ailes, the founder of Fox News who was ousted last year due to a sexual harassment scandal, has died.
In a statement, Fox News personality Sean Hannity eulogized Ailes, writing “few people in this life will ever reach the profound level of impact that Roger Ailes had on the country every single day.
In 2016, he resigned from Fox News amidst allegations that he sexually harassed numerous female Fox News employees, including Megyn Kelly and Gretchen Carlson, and had been doing so for decades.
“I am profoundly sad and heartbroken to report that my husband, Roger Ailes, passed away this morning,” she wrote.
