Plot
Roger Ailes had a career by hook or by crook. Well, where to go to a person with an exorbitant ego? So Roger tried to realize his ambitions. Working for republican presidents helped him succeed in politics, but Ailes’ real passion was television. The ability to create your own channel has completely embraced Roger’s mind.
So Ailes became the CEO of the Fox News, moreover, since its inception. Over the years, he met Richard Nixon, George Bush, Ronald Reagan, and he helped each of them with non-legal methods. His last client was Donald Trump, who actually owes his victory in the presidential election to Roger.

The story of Ailes is shown from several points of view at once, since even after Roger’s strange death several facts remain unproven. For example, Ailes’s career path contains not only positive moments, but also those for which he had to be very ashamed. Why are only charges of sexual harassment from Gretchen Carlson, who filed a lawsuit.
For many years, Ailes remained at the head of Fox News, and only in 2016, after the accusations of Gretchen, he had to leave his post forever. Death crept unnoticed by him – he died at home accidentally hitting his head. All this tells the 1st and only season, which covers the last 10 years of Roger’s life, until the last minutes.
About the season 2 there can be no talk, because the whole of America knows that the loudest voice in the room of Gabriel Sherman belonged to Roger Ailes. Even leading businessmen envy his ability to do business. In this case, few people achieve such success, which is constantly pursued Ailes. Let the price of such luck is high, but he was able to realize his dreams.

Interesting Facts
- The scandalous nature of Russell Crowe was known to the creators of the series in advance, so the film crew initially doubted about working with the actor.

Later, critics will appreciate his game in the series, believing that thanks to Russell, the project received such a high rating.
- The series is based on the book by journalist-investigator Gabriel Sherman, who became the best-selling book “The Loudest Voice in the Room”. As part of the project was named “Secure and Hold: The Last Days of Roger Ailes”.
- The script for the project was ready a month before Ailes’s death. It was necessary to urgently engage in rewriting the script and think over further plot lines.
