Ailes Picked His Own Biographer

Roger Ailes admits to Howard Kurtz that he recruited Zev Chafets to write a new biography, Roger Ailes: Off Camera that will compete with Gabriel Sherman’s more critical biography, The Loudest Voice in the Room, expected soon.

Said Ailes: “I picked Zev. He’s an actual author, a good journalist. He’s mature and thoughtful and not out to hurt people. I’m not saying anything about the other guy.”
