Fox News Gender War Goes Lives in 'Bombshell' Opening December 13, 2019 | W Magazine
‘Bombshell’, a reference to FOX TV founder Roger Ailes’ preference for blondes, opens in theaters on December 13. The movie details the downfall of the now-deceased Ailes, in a slow drip-drip-drip of sexual harassment allegations against the media genius and co-engineer of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. Ailes is largely credited with cultivating the extreme polarization and alternate facts universe in today’s America.
Nicole Kidman plays Gretchen Carlson, the outspoken anchor who launched the Fox News gender war, by suing Roger Ailes, played by John Lithgow. Charlize Theron plays the increasingly outspoken Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly, who collided with now President Trump on the presidential debate stage. Margot Robbie plays a composite FOX woman Kayla, happily climbing the FOX News ladder as a “true believer”, writes W Magazine.
