From 2016: "Bill Shine, the newly appointed co-president of Fox News, commutes two hours every morning from Long Island to Midtown Manhattan, leaving his house so early that, as he tells colleagues, “the other guys on the train all have Sheetrock on their boots.”

"He is seen in the newsroom as embodying a typical Fox News viewer: an Irish-Catholic family man, son of a New York City police officer. His wife is the author of “Happy Housewives,” an ode to female empowerment through 1950s-style domesticity. (Sample advice: “Don’t Nag Him to Death.”)

"For years, Mr. Shine was known as an affable and loyal right-hand man to Roger Ailes, the now-deposed Fox News chairman, who relied on him to handle delicate matters with personnel." [1]

In July 2018 he was hired as President Trump’s communications chief. [2]
