Fox News SVP’s Exit In Wake Of Roger Ailes Departure

Exits continue at Fox News. Latest to leave: SVP’s Brigette Boyle and Nikole King.

The moves were made by new leadership team Jack Abernethy and Bill Shine who, last week had been named co-Presidents of Fox News. A network rep described the latest two departures as “amicable” and “mutual,” adding that King’s job had been eliminated.

Based on Trump's campaign behavior, I would not be surprised if he is looking to start his own network, using his candidacy and his crazy ass supporters to kick something off... Then we end up with 2 Fox networks... Wouldn't that be great for the GOP?
