also looking at the larger rupert murdoch empire.m the new york post, a man who has known rupert murdoch since college. also rebekah brooks. he has been trying to rehabilitate her since the phone hacking scandal in the u k. he has been showing her the ropes, possibly as a replacement for roger ailes. reports there are some that some of the anchors at fox have in their contract that there,iles, if he is not they have an option to leave. is that correct? guest: that is correct that they have out clauses. but what is not correct is that the narrative roger ailes pushed, that it would lead to a mass exodus. was inces tell me that negotiation tactic to put pressure on murdoch. stock prices are dependent on the success of fox news. it is the single most profitable division in rupert murdoch's conglomerate. was thatr ailes said if you left, he could take the whole thing down with him. but that was posturing. i talked with people at the network, and all of the key areors, none of them plotting or organizing and next is. what can you tell us

rupert murdoch had roger ailes begin to report to lauk lun and james murdoch and roger ailes was not ppy about this. he pub lklicly said, i will rep to rupert. turns out that wasn't true. >> there was pressure from both lauchlin and james. roger ailes has done tre mndous things for knox news, no doubt about that. made a lost money for the company. created the franchise. but i think this is a signal, this was moving in this direction before gretchen carlson's lawsuit, i am told. of course, this is, you know, he was forced out. they can shine this up but that what happened. >> do we have any sense on this internal investigation? it is was turning up. this investigation seemed to be growing. >> that has been what is reported, a very notably, law firm in new york and several women as many as six have told the law firm paul weiss here in new york that they too have been sexually harassed. we should say that roger ailes denies ever having harassed anybody and i suspect the company would like this to go away. and i suspect it is not going to go away. >> and kwthe question here, foxn terms of

stepping in is rupert murdoch. let's get more. a lot of senior hosts from fox news, brent hume, chris wallace, saying they were comforted that rupert murdoch was coming back in that project is stability and continuity, and that was the message rupert murdoch delivered on a conference call. however, you have to imagine rupert murdoch will not be running the channel for the long term and will spend the next couple of months to see who is good, who should stay, and who should go, and who is capable of running the place or with a have to go externally for a long-term replacement. there will be some changes to fox news in the future, but for the time being, they are projecting stability for employees and investors, fox news being one of the most important assets. check of what is going on as far as nintendo and mcdonald's japan. pokemon go was released in its home country, just becoming available for download in japan. these are the shares at the moment. nintendo moving to the upside. we have come off that a little bit. mcdonald's japa

right now rupert murdoch is in interim role. everybody knows that is a stopgap. >> rose: likely candidate from inside fox news? >> well, there are two internal candidates. bill shein who is roger ailes' deputy, we be seen as continuation of the right wing conservative style of programming that ailes pioneered f. they wanted to go in more of news direction, there are two news candidates, john moody a former "time" magazine journalist who was with ailes from the beginning, had very sort of straight news instincts. the same with michael clement a former nbc fusion cluetive. they are both in at fox now, thought is that they could slide into that role. burt also looking in the wider murdoch empire to bring in a possible replacement, jessie angelo who runs the "new york post" very close with the murdoch folly was james murdoch's college roommate at harvard. seen as someone that can slide in there. another long shot candidate that is creating speculation inside the company rebecca brooks who is very close to rub earth murdoch very fond

>> a lot of investors told me ofs clearly is an example rupert murdoch sons exerting their influence heir father and really pushing for this change. do the sons share the same editorial outlook that rupert does? if not, there could be a shift in the fox news channel going forward. that could have a negative impact on profit going forward. trump remember donald took on fox news in a way that caught people by surprise but they have sort of reconciled. there grip is not as unassailable as it used to be? to reachy he was able his audience through twitter primarily ended not necessarily rely on as much as the other republican candidates have over the last several elections. is this something new? i think most people think trump is one in a million and fox's still the player for the republican party, for the right. scarlet: thank you so much for that quick analysis. we will be right back. ♪ general electric reports earnings tomorrow at 7:00 eastern time. that does it for what did you miss? e tok: with all due respect the privacy of convention goers, you always have to look out for the kiss

guest: the future depends on the rupert murdoch family.ed it with roger and approves of the way it is. it is interesting that he is the interim ceo. he will try to maintain it in the same way to the extent that he can but rupert murdoch's son s, they are not their father. that network make so much money and it is so defined for conservatives and. even if they decide to keep it the way it is without roger ailes, it cannot be the way it is. donald trump does it is her portion a number of interviews with fox news, will knewcontinue? >> before i rupert murdoch was going to be ceo i thought that could change, because it is him, i think that will remain the same but if i were your network, there is going to be more of a shot at that. just made a huge difference, the dna of abc news. what is an example of something that roger ailes did that will now be different? while it is overstated but he is dictating every word, in the come andhe tells you make sure you are on this, make sure you are on that, the irs scandal -- would that have been covered t

executive chairman rupert murdoch will become chair and acting chairman of fox news.elcome, as always. let's start first of all with your reaction. i mean this, developed and came to a conclusion rapidly. >> indeed it did. you know, i think obviously if you're a casual observer this is bombshell news. however, iperspective, if history is anything to go by, we expect investors to shake off the news but clearly roger ailes is a larger than life personality won fox news which is almost synonymous with his tenure. obviously fox news is an extremely important asset for, you know, for 21st century fox, but i think on the bright side they have been successful in signing a lot of long-term contracts which should keep them going until they can get steady hands to replace roger ails. >> so you do not see this as a near or maybe even a long-term threat to the stock price or to the profitability of fox news? >> well near term you're likely to see, you know, some headline risk around this. there's also potential issues with succession, you know. rupert is taking over the -- you kn

obviously rupert murdoch has a great interest and is very involved.ng to me, involvement of his two sons to ply aayed a role in removing ailes from the scene. no choice. people talking so great, they didn't have a choice. the question, can they keep up the success that ailes has seen? their demographic is aging. they've certainly have much more -- more struggles than in the past. the question is, can they keep surging forward with new things, depending which the administration is and stuff like that. >> kara, that seems to be the exact variable people are trying to size up. exactly how much change will the murdoch sons be able to push through in a company that still has legacy executives? >> well, yeah. exactly. this is a changing era. be honest. rupert murdoch is active in returning the company but his sons moved into a much more prominent position. they tangled with ailes previously and didn't have enough to power. but now enough ammo considering the allegations, and you won't see rupert murdoch running this company 20 some years more unless he has
