Bill Shine, who has worked at Fox News for 20 years, has resigned as co-president.

An internal memo sent out by Rupert Murdoch, top executive of Fox's parent company, made the announcement on Monday.

"Sadly, Bill Shine resigned today," Murdoch's memo said. "I know Bill was respected and liked by everybody at Fox News. We will all miss him."

I fear Fox News will be unrecognizable in a couple years. There will be a void to be filled. Thankfully Glenn Beck’s Blaze will not be there to pick up the pieces.

Bill Shine and Roger Ailes did everything they could to torpedo Donald Trump last year. They are Bush loyalists. This is payback.

Not that I’ll notice much. I watch Tucker two or three days a week and DVR Gutfeld to watch Sunday morning. Other than that it;s like Fox doesn’t exist for me.

Yes, they lost their way a few years ago. Who knows why.

I wonder if Shine has a non-compete clause. I wonder if he’s covered in the “key man” clauses most of the hosts have.

Special Report is an actual news program, only with a panel at the end.

Mark Levin has been very vocal in his support of Bill Shine, a devout Catholic Mark has known for many years. Bill is a good man and hopefully, there’s a role for him in the new conservative network in the works, Lord willing.

I hope so. Highly successful Fox News is committing suicide. Sad to watch...

The day that a replacement for FAUX NEWS becomes available is the day the of cancellation.....(no threat, a promise to the global socialist elites that wish to restrict non-globalist free exchange of ideas)

Jesse Watters was pu$$y whipped right off of Watter’s World after its 3rd program.

I doubt he will be back.We’ll have to see. maybe Watters will join the new Bill O’Reilly network.

Jesse was back on "The Five" tonight, being teased by Greg Gutfeld: "Be careful what you say, Jesse!". So he appears to be OK.

But I agree... IF there is a new conservative network coming, I hope Watters, Kimberly Guilfoyle, Eric Bolling, Jeanine Pirro, Lou Dobbs, Hannity, Laura Ingraham and all conservatives at FNC walk out en masse on the liberal Murdochs. FNC will absolutely collapse.

fuel the speculation running inside the network that a bigger house cleaning is coming

If you think about it, WHAT "bigger house cleaning is coming"?? FNC has been the most highly successful cable news network for over a decade now, maybe two decades. Why "house clean" if the objective for the Murdochs (including the liberal sons) is making billions of dollars??

Did this all start in 2016 with the election? Fox was not supportive of DJT at all, and kept publishing its fake poll that was wrong by 6 points. Kelly, Gutfeld, Shep, and Perino were all nasty about Trump.

But others like Sean Hannity, Eric Bolling, Judge Jeanine Pirro, Kimberly Guilfoyle, Lou Dobbs, Bill O'Reilly (to a certain extent), among other FNC people, were *definitely* pro-Trump throughout the 2016 campaign.

New Yorkers O'Reilly, Hannity, Pirro, Dobbs and I think Bolling were longtime personal friends of Donald Trump.

Tommi Leahren would only sully the new network. She brings nothing to the conservative table.

She jumped whatever short shark she may have swam with, with her pro-abortion stance.

I agree. I thought Tomi Lahren was The Next Best Thing until I saw her several times on Hannity and O'Reilly. As time went on, she didn't have many interesting things to say. And then the pro-abortion thing came to light. Go away, Tomi!
