Fox Boss Reportedly Told Trump To Make Nice Or 'Go To War'
Fox News chairman Roger Ailes on Monday reportedly told real estate tycoon Donald Trump to make nice with the powerful network or else "go to war."
CNN Money's Brian Stelter reported late Wednesday that Ailes was angered when Trump appeared Monday on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" and said that he believed Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly owed him an apology for her tough questions in last week's Republican presidential debate.
The remark prompted Ailes to call up Trump and say the two could "resolve this now" or "go to war," two anonymous sources told Stelter.
Spokespeople for both men declined to comment on the call to CNN Money. A spokeswoman for Fox also declined to comment further to TPM.
Ailes' and Trump's public statements on the conversation made clear that the pair had buried the hatchet, but didn't really get into specifics, either.
