Fox News boss calls radio executives "left-wing Nazis"

The head of the conservative U.S. news network Fox News called the executives of a radio station «left-wing Nazis.» Now he has had to apologize.

Roger Ailes had railed against the management of the public radio station NPR in an interview that was published on the internet. A political commentator had been fired after making controversial remarks about Muslims. The people in charge of NPR have a bit of a Nazi demeanor, Ailes said. They are left-wing Nazis. These guys can't stand the fact that you can have a different opinion than theirs, Ailes continued. And it doesn't bother them at all that they use contributors' money to spread their propaganda.
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), an organization fighting anti-Semitism, announced on Thursday that Roger Ailes had apologized for his remarks in a letter to ADL President Abraham Foxman. Ailes wrote that he had improvised and should not have used this word.
