White House Communications Director Bill Shine Resigns
White House communications director Bill Shine resigned his post Thursday evening, the White House has announced.
Shine, a former co-president of Fox News, will instead join the president’s 2020 re-election campaign as a senior adviser.
He said in a statement that serving in the Trump administration was “the most rewarding experience of my entire life” and “an honor.”
Shine joined the White House last summer, after being forced out at Fox News in the wake of several sexual harassment scandals. Shine himself was not accused of improper conduct himself when he left in 2017, but was involved in protecting and enabling those who were, including former CEO Roger Ailes and top-rated evening host Bill O’Reilly.
Shine kept a low profile at the White House, never participating in press briefings or appearing on camera to defend President Donald Trump, as other press and communications staff do.
