Who’s running Fox News? That’s a good question. There are a lot of people who have a hand in running Fox News but there are really only a few key players who are responsible for making sure that the network runs smoothly.
Rupert Murdoch is the executive chairman of Fox News. He is also the chairman and CEO of 21st Century Fox the parent company of Fox News. Murdoch is the one who ultimately has the final say in what goes on at Fox News.
However Murdoch doesn’t really day-to-day operations of Fox News. That’s the job of Roger Ailes the network’s president and CEO. Ailes is the one who makes sure that Fox News runs smoothly on a day-to-day basis. He’s also the one who decides what stories the network covers and how they are covered.
Ailes reports to Murdoch but he also has a lot of autonomy when it comes to running the network. Murdoch trusts Ailes to run the network the way he sees fit and so far it’s been a winning formula. Under Ailes Fox News has become the most-watched cable news network in the country.
There are other key players at Fox News of course. There’s Jennifer Griffin the network’s Washington bureau chief. Griffin is responsible for making sure that the network’s coverage of Washington is fair and balanced.
Then there’s Bill O’Reilly the host of Fox News’ flagship show “The O’Reilly Factor.” O’Reilly is one of the most popular figures on Fox News and his show is the most-watched program on the network.
Finally there’s Megyn Kelly another popular host on Fox News. Kelly is the host of “The Kelly File” another hugely popular show on the network.
So those are some of the key players who are responsible for running Fox News. Rupert Murdoch is the ultimate boss but it’s Roger Ailes who really runs the show on a day-to-day basis. And then there are other key players like Jennifer Griffin Bill O’Reilly and Megyn Kelly who all play important roles in making sure that Fox News is the successful network that it is.
