As the primary channel for conservative viewers, one might expect the top brass at Fox News to be in favor of what many conservatives consider "traditional marriage." But in a new profile in The Hollywood Reporter, Fox News Chief Roger Ailes revealed that in his eyes, same-sex relationships are basically a non-issue.
"I don't care," said Ailes. "It's not my business how people live. I don't try to tell them what to do. I've hired and promoted gays all my life. I just don't get involved. It's not my business. And it's not their business what I like."
