Bombastic Roger Ailes Built Fox News--and Divided a Country

Review:This a well written and interesting biography about the man, Roger Ailes, and the cable "news" network he created to promote the rightwing agenda and generate huge profits.

The book was a good read and every time I happen to turn on Fox News, I better understand how it seeks to manipulate public opinion and cater to its and the Republican Party's base, old white men.
