Top Fox News Exec Fired And Escorted Out Of Building

Posted by Ellen -7859.80pc on August 20, 2013 · Flag

File this one "Juicy!" The Hollywood Reporter reports that Brian Lewis, the "right-hand man to Roger Ailes" has been fired and escorted out of the building due to undisclosed "financial issues and other performance problems."

THR also says:

Insiders say that their close relationship made it difficult for Ailes to cut Lewis loose, but the financial issues his actions raised -- details of which were not available Tuesday -- coupled with complaints about complacency and other matters, left Ailes feeling as if he had no other choice.

Hmmm. Sounds like there's a lot of shake up going on over at "fair and balanced" central.

Lewis won’t be the only person to be canned. There are other juicy gems involving these worthless, paranoid cafeteria Catholics coming down the pipe.

Grab that popcorn and a large drink. The masses will enjoy this main attraction.

These frauds work hard to keep their internal issues from leaking to the media. The moles are talking and it has the Nixon trainee upset. The suits don’t like their little employees spilling the beans of this amateur operation. These frauds are control freaks.

The masses will learn the truth about these worthless bogs at this amateur network, run by amateur executives who know nothing about operating a news organization. It’s easier for them to run their big mouths.

NOTE TO THE FOXYS

Get rid of Shine and Finley. While your at it, oust that idiot male producer at the D.C. bureau. You can hire several people with the salaries of Billy and Seanny. They are overpaid.

There’s speculation that Lewis was canned for speaking up about Fox News’ race baiting. I remember that Adam Housley had a period where he may as well have been fired because he was seeing so little face time on the network or the site, and an unconfirmed rumour hit the mill that it was because he had words with someone who told a racist joke in front of his wife.

Housley’s married to former Disney actress Tamera Mowry, for those of you who need context.

The reason that rumour still haunts me is because Fox has always been like that. If there isn’t a ton of outrage about what you did, let it go, because they’re on the side of the offender when it comes to racial offenses, every time. Hell, their affiliates are like that, even here.

Some say that the British investigation into Wrinkled Rupert’s criminal enterprises has now led to the USA. Jabba the Ailes will be tossing employees under the bus in order to save his own job.

Hmmmmmmmmm, maybe Brian Lewis got the heave-ho because he started THINKING FOR HIMSELF??

Very juicy indeed! “Escorted out of the building” is a pretty harsh tactic. Did they demand his key and change the locks?

Do let us know if more about this comes out. Sounds delightful.

Obviously he didn’t harass a female co-worker on the phone. That’s not an offense he would get fired for, right Junior O’reilly?
