RIP Roger.  Well, this is a sad day for conservatives.  I suspect the last bits of conservatism left in Fox News will die with him.   :(
Government is not the solution to our problem—government is the problem.   Ronald Reagan

Lets leave Pelosi out of this one. A sad day indeed. He was the great driving force behind the one true news organization.  :hide:

A great driving force wilted by accusations that forced him to pull out of his own company before the end.

(This can be read with various flavors of genuine regret, or with sarcasm, as the reader thinks best.)

I guess he didn't want to make babies with it.

Exactly. Nobody likes to pull-out before the end.

Sounds like he's planning on bunting instead of swinging for the fence.  :2funny:
