Fox Chief Ailes: Clinton’s Response To Wallace An ‘Assault On All Journalists’

ailes_fox_clinton_wallace.jpgFox News chief Roger Ailes says Bill Clinton‘s on-air “assault” on Chris Wallace Sunday represents an attack on “all journalists.”

“If you can’t sit there and answer a question from a professional, mild-mannered, respectful reporter like Chris Wallace, then the hatred for journalists is showing,” Ailes told the AP yesterday. “All journalists need to raise their eyebrows and say, ‘hold on a second.’”
