When Roger Ailes hired me, he knew I was the daughter of a college professor and a nurse. There was nothing in this resume that would telegraph, 'She's a secret conservative.'

I came from a middle-class family. My dad was a professor; my mom was a nurse. I didn't come from money, and I didn't come from circles of power. I didn't come from the country club; I came from the town park.

I admire those women who really knew who they were and didn't apologize for it. Katharine Hepburn? She was ahead of her time.

You have to understand that Roger Ailes was a king. He was on the cover of multiple industry publications as the most powerful man in news. And at Fox News, there was no one else with power. So you didn't want to get on the wrong side of him because he was actually beloved inside the building and very well-liked in the industry.

If I were Sarah Palin, would I want to sit in an interview with someone who was secretly out to get me? Probably not.

Im a soulless lawyer. Give me any opinion and I can argue it.
