Bill Shine
William Shine (born July 4, 1963) is a former White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Communications in the first administration of U.S. President Donald Trump. He spent most of his career as a producer and executive at Fox News. Most recently, he was co-president of Fox News, a position he held for 9 months before he was forced out on May 1, 2017. On March 8, 2019, the White House announced that Shine was resigning to advise President Trump's 2020 presidential campaign.
A twin, Shine grew up in East Northport, Long Island, New York; his father was a New York City police officer. The family were Irish Catholic. He received a B.A. in communications from the State University of New York at Oswego. After college, he worked as a producer for local TV stations on Long Island beginning in 1985 with WLIG-TV.
Shine began working for Fox News as the senior producer of Hannity & Colmes.
By 1999, Shine was the senior prime-time producer for Fox News. The following year Shine was the executive producer of Fox News Channel's prime-time programs.
In 2001, on Fox News Channel's The Edge, psychic Sylvia Browne said that she knew where the body of Chandra Levy was located. On Fox News Channel's Judith Regan Tonight, psychic James Van Praagh discussed Chandra Levy. Shine responded to questions about having psychics appear on Fox News Channel by saying that it was "part of the story" because the Levy family had consulted some psychics . Shine said that the psychics provided "another opinion, another side of the story".
By 2004, Shine was the vice president of production for Fox News Channel. The following year, Shine was Fox News Channel's senior vice president of programming.
In 2005, when asked why the U.S. media carried many stories about missing white women (missing white woman syndrome) and disproportionately few about missing black women, Shine commented that "the stories that go national have a twist or an emotional aspect to them that make them interesting".
In 2007, after Bill O'Reilly dined at Sylvia's soul-food restaurant in Harlem, he found his naive preconceptions challenged. O'Reilly admitted he "couldn't get over the fact" that eating at the restaurant "was like going into an all-white suburb in the sense of people were sitting there, and they were ordering and having fun. And there wasn't any kind of craziness at all." Responding to criticism of O'Reilly's statement, Shine said, "This is nothing more than left-wing outlets stirring up false racism accusations for ratings."
