Unapologetic Hannity fires off personal tribute to Roger Ailes, leaves ‘enemies’ with blistering message

Fox News anchor Sean Hannity issued a touching statement after news broke of the death of former Fox News chair Roger Ailes.

In a series of tweets on Thursday he described Ailes as on of America’s “great patriotic warriors” who was a “second father” to him after his own dad died.

And he made a point to smash the haters who were playing “checkers” while Ailes was “playing Chess 5 steps ahead at a whole other level.”

He said he suspects the rest of the media, who despise Fox News, will not “leave Roger and his family alone in their time of grief” but that’s ok because Ailes “just has a head start in preparing to kick your ass in the next life.”

Today America lost one of its great patriotic warriors. RA. For Decades RA’s has impacted American politics and media. He has dramatically and forever changed the political and the media landscape singlehandedly for the better. Neither will ever be the same again as he was a true American original.

Few people in this life will ever reach the profound level of impact that Roger Ailes had on the country every single day. As his opponents played checkers in life, Roger was always the strategist, playing Chess 5 steps ahead at a whole other level.

On a personal note, were it not for Roger Ailes, I would not be the person I am today. In 1996 he took a huge risk on an inexperienced, young, local radio talk show host in Atlanta. To this day I have no earthly idea why I was hired and not fired early on, as I had little television experience when I was hired by FNC, as old tapes humbly remind me.

He saw something in me and many others he hired that we never saw in ourselves, and forever changed the trajectory of thousands of peoples lives. In many ways he was like a second father after I lost my father 6 months after I started at FNC in 3/97. I am forever grateful.

His endless enthusiasm, energy, wit, humor and raw instinctive intelligence will be greatly missed.

Our thoughts and prayers now turn to him, his Wife Beth, his son Zachary, his brother and his family. He will be deeply missed.

It would be nice if the media would leave Roger and his family alone in their time of grief, but knowing people that hated him and his politics, and those that forget “all have sinned and fallen short” and “cast the first stone” I doubt that will happen.

But to his enemies know this; I say ADVANTAGE ROGER, In his mind he just has a head start in preparing to kick your ass in the next life.

God speed Roger Ailes!
