He was a GOP icon. In the 1970s, he helped Richard Nixon with a plan to put the GOP on TV news

He also worked with Ronald Reagan and George Bush Sr. who remarked that he wouldn't have become President without Roger Ailes help

Ailes was called upon to help President Ronald Reagan prepare for a 1984 re-election debate after his disastrous performance in an earlier debate. He later worked on Vice President George H.W. Bush’s presidential campaign. (Bush paid his respects to Ailes via Twitter on Thursday.)

In addition to that, Fox News was pivital in calling the election prematurely for George Bush
https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2000/11/fox-n17.html this lead other news stations to follow suit, as to not be "late", which helped swing the tide of the results and allow George Bush Jr. to win Florida, and thus, the presidency.
Can you imagine? We might have been deprived of both of the Bushes had it not been for Roger Ales. Sexual harrasment lawsuits aside, I think there's one thing of important note. No males ever filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against Roger Ailes. Whether or not he actually did any of the things he was accused of, who knows, but I can say confidently that he was not gay. Much like Donald Trump, we can be assured of this man was a straight shooter his entire life. These are the types of men who shape our history and culture for many years to come and he will be dearly missed.

He and President Trump were best friends so I anticipate some government investigation.

According to NBC News contributor Gabriel Sherman, Roger Ailes said "Well, if you want to know if I'm suicidal the answer is no." shortly before his death.

I think this is a coded message. He knew liberal enemies were afoot and coming after him, so he was letting us know that if he winded up mysteriously dead, it was not his own doing, but the act of another. Catching wind of this, liberal murderous abandoned their original plan to make it look like a suicide and instead make it look like a medical issue. That's the current theory I've adopted and it seems like it's the most plausible one at the moment given the evidence.
