Fox News Anchor: Roger Ailes Saved This Country by Starting Fox News

When the news broke that former Fox News boss Roger Ailes had died, the show Fox and Friends was on the air.

It was the job of Steve Doocy, Ainsley Earhardt and the guy that sits across from Steve Doocy to inform viewers of Ailes' death. 

When it came time for Earhardt to chime in on Ailes death, she said, "he saved this country by starting the Fox News Channel."

I'm not kidding you! She really said this.

There are so many things I can say about this, but for the respect of the dead, I'm not going to do it.
