- Roger Ailes: People don't stop watching when there's a conflict. They stop watching when there isn't one.
- Jess Carr: You have to adopt the mentality of an Irish street cop: the world is a bad place, people are lazy morons, minorities are criminals, sex is sick but interesting. Ask yourself, what would scare my grandmother or piss off my grandfather? And that's a Fox story.
- Megyn Kelly: If I learned anything this year, it's to not get sucked into a fight with someone who has better reason to be in it than you do.
- Megyn Kelly: Early on he realized for a network to stay on 24 hours a day you need something to hold an audience. That something is legs. There's a reason for clear desks.
- Gretchen Carlson: Do you know why we dress soldiers the same? So everybody knows they're replaceable.
- Megyn Kelly: They have a contractual right to monitor our communications. A hotline in this building is like a complaint box in occupied Paris. It's like we're telling women "Go on, speak up for yourself. Just know the entire network is with Roger. No one will believe you. They'll call you a liar. Oh, and as for your career, you want assignments and airtime? Go ahead, call the paranoid man who decides your salary a pervert, and do that on a fucking anonymous hotline he controls on a phone he has a contractual right to record." Jesus fucking Christ, do you think women are idiots? It's like somebody stripped you naked and they want you to walk through this office just to fucking prove it.
- Megyn Kelly: Just to be clear. I will not be kissing Trump's a** at nine o'clock.
- Roger Ailes: We fight tomorrow's fights tomorrow.
- Geraldo Rivera: Look, I've known him for forty years... He's about as flirty as the grizzly from The Revenant!
- Neil Cavuto: Let me tell you something: I call these allegations sick, 'cos they are sick!
- Sean Hannity: [arriving] Hey, why wasn't I let in on the pact?
- Bret Baier: What pact?
- Sean Hannity: Breitbart is saying there's a pact among our top fifty on-air talents...? If Roger gets fired, we all walk...?
- Neil Cavuto: Great, where do I sign?
- Judge Jeanine Pirro: [leans over cubicle wall] Why did I never heard of a pact?
- Neil Cavuto: Me either.
- [pause as they realize]
- Bret Baier: Roger placed it.
- Sean Hannity: Fake news.
- [walks away]
- Sean Hannity: Come on.
- Megyn Kelly: All I want is for this to go away, Roger.
- Roger Ailes: Look, every general in history has gone into battle feeling the same.
